This grant is for conducting a study to determine the impact of soil moisture on dune migration and dust production in various geomorphic areas at White Sands National Monument. The project aims to analyze how changes in climate variables and near-surface water-table hydrology influence sediment transport in playa, dune, and interdune regions. This opportunity falls under the Gulf Coast, Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) Master Cooperative Agreement and follows Department of Interior guidelines. Application deadline: September 13, 2014.
