This grant from the BLM Utah Colorado Plateau Native Plant Program is designed to fund essential research into biological soil crusts (BSCs). The project aims to significantly advance our understanding of these complex BSC ecosystems, focusing on their development and the effective utilization of biological soil materials for restoration. A key component is a graduate research program, which will contribute directly to developing innovative approaches for restoring degraded lands. The ultimate goal is to apply this enhanced knowledge towards successful ecological restoration across the Colorado Plateau, ensuring the long-term health and stability of these vital natural systems. The outcomes will provide critical insights for land management.
