This grant, offered by the National Park Service, aims to further study the lagoon systems of Bering Land Bridge National Preserve and Cape Krusenstern National Monument. The research will utilize existing baseline data to understand ecological connectivity and compare these systems to other Arctic lagoons. The project will contribute to the establishment of the Beaufort Lagoon Long Term Ecological Research site and assess the impact of environmental changes on flora, fauna, and subsistence opportunities. Applications are accepted until August 31, 2019.

| Description: | This project is intended to utilize the Arctic Inventory and Monitoring baseline data collected through the Lagoon Communities Monitoring Vital Sign to more fully develop an understanding of the functioning of the lagoon systems of Bering Land Bridge National Preserve and Cape Krusenstern National Monument. The establishment of the Beaufort Lagoon Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) site, and other developing lagoon assessment research external to NPS managed lands, is giving the National Park Service an extremely valuable opportunity to examine the functioning of the their managed lagoons in the context of a broader Arctic lagoon scope. This context will provide the NPS with the an understanding of the implications of ongoing environmental changes, in particular increasing oceanic temperatures, on the flora and fauna of the lagoons, and the nature of the lagoons in regards to ecological functioning and subsistence opportunities. |
