This grant is for the purpose of comprehensively studying the profound effects of sound on the diverse wildlife, delicate ecosystems, and the overall experience of visitors within units of the National Park System. The initiative aims to deepen our understanding of how anthropogenic and natural soundscapes influence animal behavior, ecological processes, and visitor enjoyment and safety. By investigating these impacts, the grant seeks to inform park management strategies, develop mitigation measures, and ensure the long-term health and tranquility of these invaluable natural and cultural resources. Proposals addressing innovative research methodologies are encouraged to contribute to evidence-based decision-making. The closing date for applications is June 01, 2023.
