Research Publication Guidelines

Research Articles, Journal Reprints and Presentations
Your submission of articles to Michigan Sea Grant is critical to our program. Submitting research articles and/or presentations to the National Sea Grant College Program is also a requirement of funding. Please forward all published articles about Sea Grant funded research, regardless of the project end date.

Michigan Sea Grant is required to send (electronic or paper) copies of all articles published by Michigan Sea Grant-supported researchers to the Federal government. (The U.S. Government is authorized to produce and distribute reprints for governmental purposes notwithstanding any copyright notation appearing hereon.) Michigan Sea Grant will fund a portion of reprint charges of articles published in peer-reviewed journals, providing that all of the following requirements have been met:

• Include the correct Federal Grant Number: See right column or contact Michigan Sea Grant.
• Include the following acknowledgement text: This publication or presentation is a result of work sponsored by Michigan Sea Grant College Program, (include project number), under: (include Federal grant number) from National Sea Grant, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce, and funds from the State of Michigan.
• Please use the Michigan Sea Grant logo on research posters and in electronic presentations. See the Michigan Sea Grant Web site (www.miseagrant.umich.edu/logo) for an electronic copy of the logo.
