Synopsis
The USGS Western Ecological Research Center is offering a Cooperative Agreement funding opportunity to a member university of the Cooperative Ecosystems Studies Unit (CESU) program in the analysis and writing for coastal wetland and seagrass ecology relevant to natural resource management and national security for Pacific Coast wetlands and Department of Defense (DoD) installations in the Mariana Archipelago. Coastal wetlands and seagrass provide numerous ecosystem services. Land management by states, DOI, and DoD need research to help inform best practices for wetland and seagrass management and restoration in the areas of the Pacific Region, Mariana Archipelago comprised of Guam and Tinian, among other areas. There is a need to assist in the development and implementation of plans (e.g., watershed, wildfire, restoration plans) for DoD and others to assist in their planning and implementation of projects.
