This department is offering this grant to conduct essential research on desert tortoise populations at Marine Corps Logistics Base, Barstow, CA. This grant is for the purpose of determining if there is a statistically significant difference in desert tortoise plot outcomes when data is collected in the spring versus the fall across twelve 500m x 500m plots. Additionally, the research will include presence/absence transects at the Yermo Annex Test Track. This information is vital for desert tortoise scientists, as the results will help optimize data collection timing and could lead to significant changes in the desert tortoise survey protocol for the entire southwestern United States. Final deliverables will include a draft and final report complemented by GIS maps.

| Description: | The purpose of this Cooperative Agreement (Agreement) is to conduct research at Marine Corps Logistics Base, Barstow, CA, to determine if there is a statistically significant difference in the outcome of twelve (12) 500 m x 500 m plots conducted in the spring versus the fall for the desert tortoise and conduct presence/absence transects at the Yermo Annex Test Track which is approximately 100 acres. This information, collected during a statistically valid research study, will help desert tortoise scientists determine if collecting research data on tortoise plots is better done in the spring or fall. The results of this research could lead to changes in the desert tortoise survey protocol for the southwestern United States. A draft and final report with GIS maps would be the final deliverable. |
