Ã¢ÂÂ   Marine Science Research Grants 6/9

The Minister for Science and Technology,   Mr David Thomson, today announced grants totalling  $1,898 million for research projects in marine  sciences and technologies.

;  The 99 grants include research projects on the Great Barrier Reef, Bass Strait,  the North-West  Shelf and other Australian coastal regions.

i  Mr Thomson said "Marine Sciences and

Technologies are vital areas of research to which  the Government accords a high priority".  _

"The grants approved today are part of a  marine science package which was announced in the  Budget".

"This package also includes funding of  research in marine sciences and technologies by  the Australian Institute of Marine Science,  the'   C.S.I.R.O. and the Antarctic Division of the  Department of Science and Technology totalling

$18.7 million".

.Ã¢ÂÂ  The present grants cover studies in

physical oceanography,coastal engineering, ocean  geosciences, marine biology and environmental'  pollution. .  Ã¢ÂÂ   . Â·
