Center for Ocean Solutions is Born

January 2008
Stanford University, the Monterey Bay Aquarium and the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI) join forces to create the Center for Ocean Solutions, a new collaboration that brings together international experts in marine science and policy to find innovative ways to protect and restore the world's oceans.

The David and Lucile Packard Foundation provides a $25 million grant to establish the new center in Monterey, near the Aquarium. Although based in California, the center will confront problems that affect oceans worldwide, including climate change and overfishing.
