At the eel farm, hundreds of baby eels squirm toward a meal specially concocted to make them grow fat and healthy Mapping floods, Weighing waves The North Carolina coast is a complex creature, but one worthy of understanding. From the barrier islands to the estuaries, from the seafood industry to the marina business, questions con- stantly crop up about our coast. Some of the answers are simple, but others require years of research. In an attempt to mesh the need for greater use of coastal resources with a respect for environmental needs. Sea Grant has funded 26 research, education and advisory services projects by researchers at seven universities. Twelve projects are new to the program while 14 are continuing. Of all the forces nature brings to bear in coastal North Carolina, none is more dramatic than a hurricane. But not since Hazel in 1954 has our coast felt the brutal winds and surging floodwaters of a major storm. The threat of a hurricane makes com- munities and officials apprehensive: When a hurricane does strike, what will it destroy? A new Sea Grant study beginning this year is to pinpoint areas in coastal North Carolina that are especially vulnerable during storms. T. C. Gopalakrishnan, an associate professor of marine science at North Carolina State University (NCSU), has already begun studying data from Hazel. He will use the data to project the extent and impact of floodwaters under Continued on next page
