The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is offering this grant to support critical research into the impacts of climate change on specific, environmentally sensitive regions in Alaska. This grant is for the purpose of developing comprehensive grid models that accurately depict the effects of projected climate change across Alaska’s North Slope and the vast National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska (NPR-A). The primary objective is to generate valuable work products from these models, which will be instrumental in significantly enhancing the existing descriptions of the affected environment within the NPR-A. This initiative by the Bureau of Land Management aims to provide robust data and analytical tools essential for informed environmental management and planning in these vital arctic ecosystems, directly addressing the challenges posed by a changing climate.
