NWRC Mission The mission of the NWRC is to develop and disseminate scientific information needed for understanding the ecology and values of our Nation’s wetlands and for managing and restoring wetlands, coastal habitats, and associated plant and animal communities.

NWRC expertise is sought nationally and internationally to provide vital scientific information and innovative technology that advances the restoration and conservation of wetland, riparian, and coastal landscapes and the species and trust resources they support. NWRC Vision

The NWRC provides long-term, large- scale, & relevant scientific information to the Nation. Three goals guide Center research program directions: o Build Scientific Knowledge: Seek Discovery o Develop Partnerships: Adaptive Science – Science Alliances o Focus on Outcomes and Scientific Impacts NWRC Research Goals

Science for Coastal Environments: Monitoring & Integrated Science Watershed Science for Management & Restoration: Discovery & Understanding Modeling & Spatial Analysis: Prediction & Forecasting Science Impact: Synthesis & Delivery Research Themes
