Programme Development

TRACES programme development between 2007 and 2009 was funded by a Marie Curie international fellowship grant from the European Commission.

We also acknowledge initial support from the Royal Society of Edinburgh's International exchange programme.

Science Workshops

TRACES Science Workshops were sponsored by the Canadian Department of Fisheries and Oceans, the U.S. NOAA Undersea Research Center, the University of North Carolina Center for Marine Science, the US Geological Survey, Environmental Defense, Oceana, the South Atlantic Fishery Management Council, the UK Natural Environment Research Council, the Scottish Association for Marine Science and the Marine Conservation Biology Institute.

The TRACES Science Plan writing workshop was sponsored by the British Consulate-General Boston.
