This grant, offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service on behalf of the Great Plains Landscape Conservation Cooperative (GPLCC), is for applied scientific research. Its primary purpose is to inform resource management decisions aimed at mitigating landscape-scale stressors impacting fish, wildlife, and plants across the Great Plains region. Proposals should address specific science needs for the FY2011 funding cycle, as outlined in a report by the GPLCC Science Subcommittee. These priorities were identified through the use of umbrella species to define broader landscape issues affecting their habitats. This initiative seeks to advance conservation efforts by providing critical scientific insights for the sustainable management of Great Plains ecosystems.

| Description: | The Great Plains Landscape Conservation Cooperative (GPLCC) is an applied conservation science partnership; see http://www.greatplainslcc.org/about/ for a map of the GPLCC geographic area. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) is soliciting proposals on behalf of the GPLCC for applied scientific work to inform resource management decisions that address landscape-scale stressors to fish, wildlife, and plants of the Great Plains.
Applicants are asked to read the report developed by the GPLCC Science Subcommittee that outlines the science needs that are the focus of this FY2011 funding opportunity. The report is located at: http://www.greatplainslcc.org/PDFs/GPLCC_Science_Priorities_FY2011.pdf. The science issues outlined in that report were developed utilizing a suite of umbrella species to define the science needs for larger, landscape issues associated with the habitats of the selected umbrella species. |
