California Current Integrated Ecosystem Assessment (CCIEA) scientists from across west coast National Marine Sanctuaries and NOAA Fisheries Science Centers are collaborating to apply NOAA's IEA framework in novel ways to support marine resource management.

Specific examples include:

The ocean off the west coast of Hawai‘i Island is home to vibrant coral reefs, fish, green sea turtles, spinner dolphins, whales, and manta rays. West Hawai‘i has the largest expanse of intact and actively growing coral reef in all of the main Hawaiian Islands. The wide array of ocean life makes west Hawai‘i incredibly important for marine biodiversity and human society. The coastal ocean and coral reefs provide seafood, resources for tourism and recreation, protection from wave and storm impacts, and the preservation of cultural practices.

The paper "Management Strategy Evaluation: Allowing the Light on the Hill to Illuminate More Than One Species" by Kaplan et al describes several case studies of management strategy evaluations. Below is the Gulf of America case study. 

The Alaska Integrated Ecosystem Assessment team and other NOAA scientists are developing a multi-model assessment of climate change impacts on fish, food-webs, and fisheries in Alaska. This is the Alaska Climate Integrated Modeling (ACLIM) project.
