Other ID: subFANS = 18CCT05, 18CCT06, 18CCT07, 18CCT08

Status: Completed

Organization(s): USGS, St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center

Funding Program(s): NFWF Monitoring Hurricane Sandy Beach and Marsh Resilience (GR.19.MN00.GSM30.00)

Principal Investigator(s): Jennifer Miselis

Affiliate Investigator(s):

Information Specialist(s): Nancy DeWitt, Joseph Fredericks, Billy Reynolds, Chelsea Stalk
