33 U.S.C. § 3706 — NSF ocean acidification activities

**(a) Research activities** The Director of the National Science Foundation shall continue to carry out research activities on ocean acidification and coastal acidification which shall support competitive, merit-based, peer-reviewed proposals for research, observation, and monitoring of ocean acidification and coastal acidification and their respective impacts, including— (1) impacts on marine organisms, including species cultured for aquaculture, and marine ecosystems; (2) impacts on ocean, coastal, and estuarine biogeochemistry; (3) the development of methodologies and technologies to evaluate ocean acidification and coastal acidification and their respective impacts; and (4) impacts of multiple stressors on ecosystems exhibiting hypoxia, harmful algal blooms, or sediment delivery, combined with changes in ocean chemistry; and (5) adaptation and mitigation strategies to address socioeconomic effects of ocean acidification and coastal acidification. **(b) Consistency** The research activities shall be consistent with the strategic research plan developed by the Subcommittee under [section 3704 of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title33-section3704&num=0&edition=prelim). **(c) Coordination** The Director shall encourage coordination of the Foundation’s ocean acidification and coastal acidification activities with such activities of other nations and international organizations. **(d) Requirement** Recipients of grants from the National Science Foundation under this chapter that collect data described under [section 3705(d) of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title33-section3705/d&num=0&edition=prelim) shall— (1) collect data in accordance with the standards, protocols, or procedure

33 U.S.C. § 3704 — Strategic research plan

**(a) In general** Not later than 2 years after March 30, 2009, and not later than every 5 years following the publication of each subsequent strategic research plan until 2035, the Subcommittee shall develop a strategic plan for Federal research and monitoring on ocean acidification and coastal acidification that will provide for an assessment of the impacts of ocean acidification and coastal acidification on marine organisms and ecosystems and the development of adaptation and mitigation strategies to address the socioeconomic impacts of ocean acidification and coastal acidification and to conserve marine organisms and ecosystems. In developing the plan, the Subcommittee shall consider and use information, reports, and studies of ocean acidification and coastal acidification that have identified research and monitoring needed to better understand ocean acidification and coastal acidification and its potential impacts, and recommendations made by the Advisory Board established in [section 3703(c) of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title33-section3703/c&num=0&edition=prelim). **(b) Contents of the plan** The plan shall— (1) provide for interdisciplinary research among the ocean sciences and social sciences, and coordinated research and activities to improve the understanding of ocean chemistry that will affect marine ecosystems; (2) establish, for the 10-year period beginning in the year the plan is submitted, the goals and priorities for Federal research and monitoring which will— (A) advance understanding of ocean acidification and its physical, chemical, and biological impacts on marine organisms and marine ecosystems; (B) assess the short-term and long-term socioeconomic impacts of ocean acidification; (C) provide
