Grants and Contracts

Since the inception of MARC in 1979, faculty, staff, and students have engaged in hundreds of projects, grants, and contracts. These academic, scholarly, and contractual activities represent a wide spectrum of interests. Over the years, MARC has studied the natural environment, using satellite imagery for mineral exploration, land cover change, and urban realms analysis. Other projects have examined regional demographics, economic development, and labor force characteristics. Considerable effort has been given towards the study of watershed environments, the effects of non-point source pollution, and the host of concerns surrounding large reservoirs, namely Kentucky Lake and Lake Barkley.

The MARC Associates invite everyone to review our grants and contracts vitae, listed below.
