The Sounds Conservancy is a marine research initiative dedicated to the preservation of six sounds, estuaries, and coastal waters in southern New England and New York.
Through the Sounds Conservancy Marine Program, QLF offers research grants to maritime researchers affiliated with leading universities and organizations across New England. These grants support marine research, environmental policy, and educational outreach. Sounds Conservancy fellows document the program’s annual research activities by updating a comprehensive 200-page online publication, which includes essential documents and archival materials.
