The US Geological Survey is offering this cooperative agreement grant to a CESU partner to research improved methods for floodplain vegetation status and trends monitoring. This grant is for advancing the assessment of plant communities, which constitute the majority of natural land cover in the Upper Mississippi and Illinois River floodplains. Currently, ecologists use various datasets to track these communities. The aim is to develop a more comprehensive and efficient approach to long-term monitoring of floodplain vegetation communities across the UMRS. This initiative seeks to enhance ecological understanding and management of vital riverine ecosystems through innovative data collection and analysis techniques.

| Description: | The US Geological Survey is offering a funding opportunity to a CESU partner for work investigating methods for floodplain vegetation status and trends monitoring. Floodplain forests and herbaceous communities make up the majority of the natural land cover of the Upper Mississippi and Illinois River floodplains. Currently, vegetation ecologists and managers utilize a number of data sets to track the status and trends of plant communities along the UMRS. This research is to seek a more comprehensive and efficient way to monitor the status and trends in floodplain vegetation communities across the UMRS and over the long-term. |
