This department is offering grants to support projects focused on regional scale analysis of the National Vegetation Classification. Proposals should refine or apply the current classification at a specific level of the hierarchy and address relationships with higher and lower levels. Funding can be used for traditional classification approaches or developing tools for natural resource assessments. Grantees are required to deposit vegetation plot data in VegBank. The closing date for applications is August 26, 2014.

| Description: | The focus of the projects proposed under this funding opportunity should be on providing regional extent analyses or tools necessary to refine and or apply the current classification. Proposals should focus on a specific level of the hierarchy, i.e. macrogroup, group, but describe how the relationships to higher and lower levels of the classification will be addressed in the research. Proposals can include traditional vegetation classification approaches, e.g. ordination, clustering etc., or development of tools necessary to apply the existing classification in support natural resource assessments for a region, e.g. field keys, interactive keys. In addition to the reports and deliverables identified in the proposal, vegetation plot data not otherwise in a permanent archive must be deposited in VegBank or provided in a database consistent with the VegBank data model. |
