Historical Note
The Chesapeake Research Consortium, Inc. (CRC) was established in 1972 when the Virginia Institute of Marine Science, the Johns Hopkins University, the University of Maryland, and the Smithsonian Institution (through the Chesapeake Bay Center for Environmental Studies) joined to identify and conduct research on the principal environmental, marine, atmospheric, terrestrial, societal, and technological problems of the Chesapeake Bay and its contiguous regions. The CRC conducts scientific research and programs in information transfer, technology applications, and education and training. Initial funding for CRC was provided by the National Science Foundation. Directors of CRC included Robert H. Roy, 1972-1973; Theodore Chamberlain, 1973-1977; and L. Eugene Cronin, 1977- .
