Research4D is a nonprofit dedicated to research to provide further useful information for decision makers related to marine issues. Research4D views the best available science as providing the tool to make the most informed decisions, though frequently more than science needs to be considered. Our research interests are primarily oil spill related, but these activities have synergies with search and rescue, larval transport modeling, pelagic habitat and cruise ship discharges.
Bring the best scientific environmental research to real-world decision-making.
Create and provide analytic tools, decision strategies, and educational programs to improve the scientific basis of public and private sector decision-making affecting the marine environment.
Our president, Dr. CJ Beegle-Krause, has been loaned to the NOAA Office of Response and Restoration for the duration of the Deepwater Horizon MS 252 incident. Media inquiries should be sent by email to info.research4d@gmail.com with contact information and a list of potential questions to aid the clearance process through NOAA.
