This grant, offered by Hot Springs National Park, aims to secure professional expertise for critical ecological restoration within the park’s former home sites. Its core purpose is to conduct comprehensive field studies on seedbank composition and effective non-native vegetation control. Understanding the existing seedbank is vital for predicting plant communities and developing strategies to prevent invasive species. Concurrently, controlling non-native vegetation is crucial for preserving the native biodiversity and ecological integrity.
