The National Park Service grant aims to investigate the projected effects of climate change on bird populations in U.S. National Parks. The research will employ spatial modeling to predict changes in bird distributions over time, serving as indicators for habitat changes. By collaborating with the National Audubon Society, the research will inform conservation strategies to mitigate these impacts and benefit park management. This grant offers opportunities for professional studies on natural resources within park units.

| Description: | By using spatial modeling, research will provide clear pictures of changes in bird distributions and community structure through space and time. These approaches predict the impacts of climate change on particular species, which can serve as indicators for specific habitats, and design conservation approaches that will mitigate them. The National Park Service and National Audubon Society are mutually interested in sharing information critical to the missions of both organizations and creating opportunities to conduct professional studies of natural resources in park units to benefit park management. |
