Most coastal states and terri- 
tories are using OCZM funds 
to collect oceanic and coastal 
zone data which may have 
national applications. 
M.U.S. & T. funds the lease of 
undersea platforms, research 
submersibles, and _ habitats 
for marine science missions 
with principal investigations 
from NOAA, universities sup- 
ported by NSF, Sea Grant, and 
other Federal agencies. Data 
collected is in the form of 
photographs, scientist ab- 
stract data, special instru- 
mentation results, and includes 
data on diving physiology and 
environmental monitoring.

The Office of Sea Grant recog- 
nizes the potential resource 
represented by data collected 
by Sea Grant researchers and, 
therefore, has procedures to 
assure that these data are 
adequately documented and 
cataloged. Following discus- 
sions between the grantee 
and an NODC representative 
to determine the documenta- 
tion necessary to ensure 
meaningful interpretation by 
subsequent users, grantees 
are required to submit data 
inventories to NODC within 30 
days atter completion of each 
cruise or data collection 
phase, and submit the data 
within 1 year. Resources for 
data management are not 
routinely identified.
