The Gulf of Mexico Research Initiative (GoMRI) received administrative support from NGI staff with expertise in information systems design and management and science communication. They developed and managed the GoMRI Research Information System or RIS (https://research.gulfresearchinitiative.org) and the Education Website (https://education.gulfresearchinitiative.org/); produced a steady flow of vetted, original content for the GoMRI website (https://gulfresearchinitiative.org/); and provided communication and administrative support for the GoMRI Research Board and Chief Scientist. The RIS tracked programmatic data for all GoMRI funded research projects, personnel, and publications and presented that information in a public web portal. The Education Website houses resources for formal and informal education use that were developed through GoMRI-funded activities. The website articles provided content for other GoMRI outreach efforts, such as social media channels, quarterly newsletters, bi-weekly eNews, and presentations. Additionally, they co-authored several papers published in the 2021 Oceanography special issue featuring GoMRI (https://tos.org/oceanography/issue/volume-34-issue-01).
