MAPP Webinar Series

Disseminating research results and connecting scientists

The MAPP program organizes monthly webinars to enable better communication among MAPP PIs, provide PIs with an opportunity to publicize their research results and better connect with NOAA labs.

The series has attracted over 1,800 participants with 70 on average for each session. Approximately half of the attendees are NOAA-affiliated, a quarter are from Universities and another quarter come from other Federal agencies, the private sector, state and local governments, international organizations, and other sources.
