This cooperative agreement, initiated by the National Park Service (NPS) and the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF), is for the purpose of rigorously evaluating the patterns of heavy metal-enriched dust deposition along the Red Dog haul road and its effects on local non-vascular plant communities. NPS is offering its ecological expertise regarding non-vascular plants, while UAF contributes proficiency in spatial modeling and statistical analysis. Both specialized areas are essential for a comprehensive assessment. This grant is for developing robust models and detailed documents through a highly collaborative process. Significant communication, joint review, and extensive editing between NPS and UAF will ensure a thorough and accurate understanding of the environmental impacts.
