This BLM-UT-GSENM grant aims to conduct a comprehensive inventory of invasive and noxious plant species within the upper section of the Paria River Watershed, located in the Kaiparowits region of Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. The project will generate crucial data that complements ongoing efforts by USU, Dinosaur National Park, and Forest Service offices across Utah, helping to identify correlations in the spread of invasive plants by public users, domestic animals, and wildlife. All collected information will be rigorously analyzed and subsequently published. This initiative offers valuable field experience for student interns, providing them with data for project write-ups, and enables professors to publish research papers, potentially supporting their tenure goals.
