The University of California will use this grant to continue improvement of the Gump Field Station on the island of Moorea, located in French Polynesia. A key goal of this upgrade is to provide essential facilities for the National Science Foundation-supported Moorea Coral Reef Long Term Ecological Research site (MCR-LTER), including a multipurpose research building, additional housing, IT infrastructure, and renovated dock. This grant will expand the existing seawater system in order to support the rapidly increasing demand, and provide a backup generator to protect critical laboratory equipment.
