The National Park Service (NPS) is offering a task award under its Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). This grant is specifically purposed for conducting critical research on the influences of mountain pine beetle-altered forest fuels on wildfire behavior within Glacier National Park. The objective is to better understand how tree mortality and subsequent changes in forest fuel loads, caused by mountain pine beetle infestations, impact the spread and intensity of wildfires. This understanding is vital for developing effective wildfire management strategies and mitigating risks in affected ecosystems. This award is being issued as a notice of intent for a noncompetitive selection, aligning with DOI 505 DM 2.12C guidelines, and interested parties should refer to the full announcement for complete details regarding this essential ecological study.
