The US Geological Survey’s National and Regional Climate Adaptation Science Center (NRCASC) is offering this grant to a CESU partner for research on changing oak species distributions, mast availability, and their effects on wildlife in the Appalachian section of the Central Hardwood Forest. This funding opportunity aims to develop a research product identifying climate, land-use, and social factors influencing oak presence, regeneration, and seed availability. The project will also analyze how potential changes to mast productivity impact wildlife species. The selected recipient will collaborate with USGS to advance scientific understanding in climate change ecology and land use science, specifically focusing on modeling resource availability for oak-dependent ecosystems under future climate, social, and land-use changes.

| Description: | The US Geological Survey’s National and Regional Climate Adaptation Science Center (NRCASC) is offering a funding opportunity to a CESU partner for research to support the project entitled “Synthesizing changing oak species distributions, mast availability, and effects on wildlife species under future climate, social, and land-use change”. The funding opportunity aims to develop a research product which will identify climate, land-use, and social factors that influence oak presence, regeneration, and seed (i.e., mast) availability and how potential changes to mast productivity affects wildlife species in the Appalachian section of the Central Hardwood Forest.The recipient will work collaboratively with USGS to provide scientific advancement in the climate change ecology and land use science, and will help to advance scientific modeling of resource availability for oak-dependent ecosystems. |
