With a 28-acre campus at the Port of Los Angeles dedicated to uniting global marine research, education, industry and community — together, we have access to a sea of opportunity. A Sea of Exploration. M A R I N E S C IENCE & R E S E A RCH State-of-the-art research and education facilities will attract the world’s leading scientific minds to a large-scale collaborative network of universities, scientists, government agencies, international partners and industries — all at the Port of Los Angeles. Science and research activities will explore a vast range of disciplines: • Atmospheric and Marine Science: ocean currents, wave formation, tidal impacts, air and water quality. • Biology: aquaculture, fisheries, harmful algal blooms, coral reefs, kelp forests, tide pools. • Computer Science: underwater robotics, maritime technologies. Research is key for creating new knowledge, promoting • Energy: renewables, thermodynamics, physics. economic development, fostering community development, • Engineering: civil, coastal, electrical, environmental, maritime, mechanical, structural. transforming education, and providing opportunities for • Environmental Science: urban influences, climate change, coastal geology, soil and water chemistry. student engagement.

B USINESS & E CONOM I C D EVEL O PM E N T More than a development project, broader than marine science and reaching beyond ocean-based business, this is a center for all marine related industries and sectors to collaborate and solve global challenges, united under a vision to shape the future through innovation. • Synergy among researchers, educators, the maritime industry, government and businesses to take research from labs to the marketplace. • Development of new technologies in energy, environment, fisheries, logistics, pollution and security industries based in the Port of Los Angeles — our nation’s largest container port with worldwide impact. • Direct local, national, and macroeconomic benefits resulting from research and solutions in global challenges of food sources, sea level rise, ocean acidification, erosion, and tsunamis. This revolutionary project is • Estimated creation of over 4,100 direct and indirect construction related jobs with estimated economic impacts of $192 million in income, $566 million in outputs and $86 million in perfectly positioned to be an local, state and federal taxes. incubator for marine businesses. • For every $1 invested in higher education, $5.43 is generated for the economy. • For every $1 million invested in research annually, an average of nine jobs is created. — DR.

The campus will be a hub for all of us, including • National and international university students and faculty will have the access to City Dock No. 1 for research and education facilitating the exchange of ideas and teachers, university faculty and students, to conduct learning across the globe. community outreach and to engage the diverse community of K–12 students in marine experiences and the possibilities of employment in marine industries. — TONY HAYMET, VICE CHANCELLOR & DIRECTOR EMERITUS, DISTINGUISHED PROFESSOR OF OCEANOGRAPHY, SCRIPPS INSTITUTION OF OCEANOGRAPHY, UC SAN DIEGO. A Sea of Inspiration. C O M M U N ITY & W O RK F O R C E D E V E L O PME N T We are uniting people and organizations with an urban ocean to make a difference in education, research and business. From school field trips, family outings to public events, from a cultural destination to job creation, we are providing inspiration for our community. • As part of the Port of Los Angeles’s 16 mile waterfront redevelopment project, City Dock No. 1 will further revitalize the area by renovating and repurposing historic abandoned warehouses and berths, drawing thousands to live, work, learn and visit. • Introducing new marine science and research related ventures into the Port communities will develop a workforce of higher level jobs and sustainable career paths. City Dock No. 1 makes a difference in my educational goal because it’s a lot of hands on learning and not just out of the text books which helps me to visualize my future in marine science. — BARBARA MIATTA LEMOH, J O H N M .
