This grant by the US Geological Survey aims to fund research on climate change and ecohydrology in temperate dryland ecosystems globally. The research will focus on integrating a soil water model with daily weather data to predict hydrologic changes in water-limited ecosystems. It will also assess similarities, uncertainties, and vulnerabilities in various dryland ecosystems, providing insights into the current and potential future ecosystem water balance and availability. Application deadline is May 17, 2012.
