Searchable Database
(click here)

You can search our NYSG projects portfolio. You will find this search facility to be a user friendly and powerful tool to find information about our funded research projects from 1990 to present. Through this tool you will soon learn that NYSG research is diverse in topics and geography and has a distinguished history in helping New York use and manage our coastal resources for the benefit of all New Yorkers and beyond. This is a living database that will grow and evolve as we add new projects and update the impacts of older projects. We invite you to explore our legacy of bringing science to the shore. If you have any questions or comments regarding this tool please do not hesitate to contact us.
