Research will be used to 'interpret <br />and explain trends observed from monitoring, to determine cause and effect relationships and <br />resource associations, and to better defme interrelationships among physical, biological, and <br />social processes. Research will play an important role in addressing infonnation needs, <br />development of integrated methods of monitoring, prediction of key physical and biological <br />processes, definition of resource interactions, and development of ecosystem models. <br /> <br />t <br />. <br />, <br />! <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />, <br />.- <br />:~ I <br />~ <br />i <br /> <br />" <br /> <br />Conceptual~odeling <br />[fo be added.] <br /> <br />*' <br /> <br />Information Technologies <br />Information technologies, including information archiving and delivery is, a third <br />critical part of GCMRC programming.
