 E-Mail CAMBRIDGE, MD (April 16, 2021) The National Science Foundation has awarded $1 million to a team of researchers at the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science to study how the nutrient plume of the nation s largest estuary, the Chesapeake Bay, changes over the course of the year and what those changes mean for food webs and nutrient cycles in the coastal Atlantic Ocean. This knowledge is pressing to accurately update estuary-ocean food web models for long-term shifts in regional climate and the changing frequency and severity of extreme weather events in many regions. We ll be going out to the inner continental shelf over the next several years with the ultimate goals of developing a hydrodynamic model of the Chesapeake Bay plume and gathering empirical and experimental data focused on understanding how the plume drives productivity at the base of the coastal food web, said UMCES ecologist and Assistant Professor Ryan Woodland, who is leading the three-ye
