The US Geological Survey is offering this cooperative agreement to a CESU-affiliated partner for critical research into invasive plants. This grant is for investigating the geographic distribution and abundance of various invasive species, encompassing both newly emerging threats and well-established populations. The primary purpose of this research is to significantly improve current assessments of environmental risk posed by these plants. Furthermore, the findings will enhance understanding of their biogeographic patterns and methods of spread, providing vital data to aid in developing and implementing effective management decisions concerning invasive species across ecosystems. This initiative aims to strengthen conservation efforts through scientific insight.
