This grant is for supporting the Bureau of Land Management’s (BLM) Rapid Ecoregional Assessment (REA) program within the Colorado Plateau ecoregion, encompassing parts of Utah, eastern Colorado, northern New Mexico, and northern Arizona. Offered by the USGS Southwest Biological Science Center, this funding opportunity aims to facilitate research focused on large-scale ecological assessment. The primary purpose is to provide assistance for data syntheses, identify critical data needs, and conduct preliminary analyses related to priority management questions specific to this vast ecoregional area. The USGS has already contributed significantly by helping articulate key questions, evaluating optimal data sources, and reviewing REA products, ensuring the research aligns with the broader REA effort for the Colorado Plateau.
