Part of a Larger Organization

As part of NOAA, the National Ocean Service, and the Office of National Marine Sanctuaries, Thunder Bay has access to an extended network of scientific expertise and resources. This content is the foundation for sanctuary education and outreach initiatives. The implementation of NOAA’s ocean literacy mandate – an increased awareness of oceans and one’s connectedness to oceans – is also one of the core components of Thunder Bay’s education action plan. In addition to grounding our programs, NOAA products, services, and information are distributed via Thunder Bay as an on-the-ground storefront and hub for access to NOAA in the Midwest.
