This grant is for the purpose of conducting a comprehensive partial inventory of mycological resources, specifically focusing on the occurrence of Fungi and/or Lichens, across Bureau of Land Management (BLM) lands in Wyoming. This essential project aims to systematically document these often-overlooked yet critical components of the ecosystem. The information gathered through this inventory will be highly valuable, providing crucial insights directly relevant to effective land and ecosystem management practices on BLM territories. Moreover, a primary objective is to establish a robust baseline of biological information. This baseline will serve as an indispensable reference point for monitoring ecological changes and shifts over extended periods, enabling the assessment of impacts from various environmental stressors, including the significant challenges posed by climate change, thus ensuring more adaptive and resilient land stewardship.
