Project Description
This project will conduct comprehensive planning to develop and implement a monitoring and adaptive management (MAM) framework and strategy, and will plan the effective use of the MAM allocation for the Louisiana Restoration Area. It will evaluate the outcomes of the Louisiana restoration effort across the portfolio of Louisiana projects, identify and fill data gaps that affect the Louisiana Trustee Implementation Group's (LA TIG) ability to meet and/or evaluate progress toward restoration goals for Louisiana resources, and identify the benefits of restoration activities to Louisiana resources and the ecosystem.
