The Division of Environmental Biology (DEB) offers this grant to support fundamental research on populations, species, communities, and ecosystems. This grant emphasizes diverse evolutionary and ecological patterns and processes across all scales. Research areas include biodiversity, molecular evolution, ecology, biogeography, ecosystem structure, function, services, conservation biology, global change, and biogeochemical cycles. Proposals can investigate organismal origins, relationships, and evolutionary history. Methodologies may encompass field, laboratory, or collection-based approaches, observational or manipulative experiments, synthesis activities, and theoretical modeling, including analytical, statistical, or computational techniques.

Description: | The Division of Environmental Biology (DEB) supports fundamental research on populations, species, communities, and ecosystems. Scientific emphases range across many evolutionary and ecological patterns and processes at all spatial and temporal scales. Areas of research include biodiversity, phylogenetic systematics, molecular evolution, life history evolution, natural selection, ecology, biogeography, ecosystem structure, function and services, conservation biology, global change, and biogeochemical cycles. Research on organismal origins, functions, relationships, interactions, and evolutionary history may incorporate field, laboratory, or collection-based approaches; observational or manipulative experiments; synthesis activities; as well as theoretical approaches involving analytical, statistical, or computational modeling. |
