DinoSHIELD was developed by staff at the National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science (NCCOS), which is part of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and develops ecosystem science solutions and tools for sustainable stewardship of ocean and coastal resources. This case study was derived from interviews with the DinoSHIELD team members about their complicated experience.
