This study will collect information about children who have rare types of lung disease to help us understand how better to diagnose and treat these patients. Information will be collected from participants' doctors about how different aspects of their disease and treatment. This will be compared to information from other such patients from other hospitals around the United States. By gathering information on many such patients, we hope to develop best practices for such patients. These may lead to new research studies, which we can invite participants in this study to consider as well.

The Currituck Sound is a unique coastal system of numerous habitats and relatively low salinity levels which allow for it to support diverse wildlife recreational opportunities, and other important ecosystem services. However, due to various anthropogenic factors, the sound is facing multiple threats such as sea level rise, erosion, and nutrient loading. In order to protect the sound, the Currituck Sound Coalition was formed and it now works to restore the sound. This research project will look at Currituck Sound Coalition members' perceptions of the Sound, its components, processes, and how they interact. Semi-structured interviews will be conducted to create members' mental models of the Sound. Models will be analyzed for differences and similarities.
