Mississippi Technical Assistance Activities
Much of our technical assistance is in the form of reports, theses and dissertations, peer-reviewed publications, and popular articles that make the results of our research available to state and federal agencies, professional colleagues, and the general public; but the Unit scientists and students provide assistance in many other ways when called upon to do so.
