Research Prioritization Meeting Summary

This summary provides an overview of a research prioritization meeting that was hosted in the summer 2022 by several organizations, including the Responsible Offshore Science Alliance (ROSA) and the Regional Synthesis Workgroup of the Offshore Wind Environmental Technical Working Group (E-TWG). The goal of the meeting was to discuss general prioritization criteria related to research being undertaken to better understand the effects of offshore wind energy development on wildlife and fisheries, as well as processes that could help identify priority studies for funding in the immediate term.
