This grant is for an established paleobotany program to conduct field-based surveys, focusing on the discovery, collection, and curation of Cretaceous floral localities within the region’s badlands. Field teams will utilize GPS, photographs, and data sheets to meticulously document each discovered site. Significant collected materials are expected to be curated at the recipient’s institution. Expected deliverables include annual reports, copies of all resulting technical papers, and valuable management recommendations, contributing significantly to the understanding and preservation of the area’s ancient flora.
