The National Park Service (NPS) is offering a grant, facilitated through the Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), specifically for a task agreement concerning Yosemite National Park. This grant is for the critical purpose of understanding visitor use patterns and identifying ecological thresholds within the park’s sensitive meadow and riparian environments. The primary aim is to gather essential data that will inform sustainable park management strategies, balancing public enjoyment with ecosystem preservation. This initiative represents a notice of intent for a noncompetitive award, as per Department of Interior guidelines. The anticipated research outcomes will be vital for developing science-based approaches to protect Yosemite’s delicate ecosystems from potential impacts of visitor activities, ensuring their long-term health.
