The National Park Service is offering a grant specifically for the systematic monitoring of thermal springs and various geological features located within Yellowstone National Park. This initiative aims to establish a consistent data collection framework essential for accurately estimating heat flow within the park’s dynamic ecosystem. Furthermore, the grant will support efforts to detect and analyze changes occurring in these unique thermal features over time, providing critical insights into the park’s geothermal activity and geological processes. This funding opportunity, issued as a task agreement award under the Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), represents a noncompetitive award. It is intended to advance scientific understanding and long-term conservation strategies for Yellowstone’s iconic natural wonders.
