The Morrison Lab receives funding from NSF to support research into the impacts of the Piney Point discharge in Tampa Bay. Dr. Morrison and co-PI Dr. Phlips were awarded an NSF RAPID grant from NSF’s Environmental Engineering program. This work will assess how nutrient inputs from Piney Point will impact phytoplankton communities, nutrient cycling, and ecosystems in the bay. Additional work has been funded by the Ocean Conservancy, with Drs. Angelini, Altieri, Phlips, and Morrison.
