Advancing scientific understanding of climate, improving society’s ability to plan and respond
The Climate and Fisheries Adaptation program is announcing eight new three-year Fiscal Year 2023 projects focused on increased understanding and promoting the adaptation and resilience of U.S. marine fisheries and fishing communities to rapidly changing climate and ocean conditions.
The project evaluates climate impacts and effective responses for social and ecological systems in and around the Bering Sea and supports NOAA’s Climate, Ecosystems and Fisheries Initiative (CEFI).
A new MAPP-supported study evaluates methods to reduce bias in models of the highly productive and biodiverse California Current System, revealing essential steps to accurately predict ecosystem-relevant ocean conditions.

In partnership with the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) Office of Science and Technology, CPO’s Coastal and Ocean Climate Applications (COCA) program competitively awarded seven grants projects in FY 2015 focused on increasing the understanding of climate-related impacts on fish stocks and fisheries. The roughly $5 million in grants cover a two- to three-year time period.
CPO’s Laura Petes is the lead author of “Science integration into U.S. climate and ocean policy,” which appeared in the August issue of Nature Climate Change.
