Description:The Gulf of Mexico Sea Grant Science Outreach Team has a proven track record of engaging directly with audiences in the region, throughout the U.S., and around the world to share science related to the marine environment. The team’s established two-way communication protocol with an extensive network of audiences tied to the blue economy provide a ready platform to share and receive information. A multi-year partnership with NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) has extended NCEI’s outreach capacity Gulf-wide, gathering regional user requirements by providing targeted user groups with an interface point to provide feedback on tools, maps, and data collection interfaces undergoing updates. Actionable information provided to NCEI has guided revisions of service delivery points for key NCEI end-user interfaces, including websites, GIS maps, and data access portals. The process offered by this partnership is important because—with increased federal focus on providing information services in response to user-driven requirements—the outcome of the team’s work has enabled NCEI to cite the sound methods and valuable results as both guidance and justification for NCEI product revisions.
