Scientists and fishermen urge continued funding for deep-ocean observation
Original: Scientists, fishermen want feds to keep funding deep-ocean observation system
Scientists and fishermen in the United States are calling on federal agencies to maintain funding for a deep-ocean observation system that tracks conditions in waters important to both research and commercial fishing. Supporters say the system provides valuable long-term data on ocean health, and that cutting it would leave researchers and industry without critical information about changing deep-sea conditions.
Why now: Federal budget decisions that could end funding for the ocean monitoring system are prompting scientists and fishing interests to speak out
