Provide a short paragraph stating why the project is best administered by the Coastal Institute.

This project focuses on an important conservation issue (conservation of the state endangered diamondback terrapin) in coastal ecosystems of Rhode Island. This project is being done in concert with a long-standing community science program that engages community members ranging from school children to retired people. The project will result in new science and a documentary film that will help to educate others about the importance of coastal ecosystem conservation.
