The US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has announced that applications for its National Coral Reef Management Fellowship are now open.

According to NOAA:
“The fellowship provides state and territorial coral reef management agencies with highly qualified candidates whose education and work experience meet each jurisdictions specific needs, while providing the individual fellows with professional experience in coastal and coral reef resources management.”
The submission deadline for the 2024-2026 Fellowship is July 20, 2023.
