On this tenth anniversary of the
National Oceanographic Partnership
Program, and as our nation embarks on
a broad set of critical societal initiatives,
it is valuable to review the accomplishments
of the program, and reflect on
conceptual origins of the ocean partnership
idea and the process by which the
program was conceived and established.
