The USGS Wetland and Aquatic Research Center is offering this grant to a CESU-affiliated partner for vital research. This funding opportunity is for modeling the effects of climate change on terrestrial watershed hydrology and water control management. The research will specifically focus on major reservoirs operated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and its relevance to downstream aquatic and forested floodplain ecosystems. The primary purpose of this grant is to provide essential scientific support to water resource managers. This will enable them to make informed decisions and adapt water operations effectively in response to evolving climate change and land use patterns, ultimately ensuring the sustainability of critical ecological systems.
