Social Science

NCCOS’s social science portfolio is focused on the connections between people and the environment. NCCOS expertise in sociology, economics, and geography is integrated with our coastal ecosystem science to create comprehensive assessments. Similarly, NCCOS also funds external competitive social science research. We provide tools, maps, and products to help communities sustainably manage their natural resources and protected areas, and to better understand and respond to coastal hazards and contaminated coastal waters.
