This grant, offered by the U.S. Geological Survey Southwest Biological Science Center (SBSC), is for establishing a comprehensive research program focused on dryland biogeochemistry within the Colorado Plateau. It aims to significantly improve our understanding of these critical ecosystems by utilizing global manipulation experiments and fundamental biogeochemistry tools. A key objective is to investigate how these vital dryland environments respond to and are influenced by anthropogenic changes. Furthermore, the program seeks to enhance knowledge and develop effective management strategies for sequestering carbon on public lands. This initiative will contribute to climate resilience and sustainable land use practices, providing critical insights for environmental management and policy decisions.
