The US Geological Survey is offering a grant through the Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit, Pacific Northwest CESU for research on Ice2O in the Pacific Coastal Temperate Rainforest (PCTR). The project aims to integrate observations from multiple disciplines to quantify glacier-forced changes in the PCTR hydrologic cycle, impacting various sectors including water resources, ocean circulation, fisheries management, and more. The grant will provide tools for enhanced science-based management of the ecosystem, focusing on freshwater fluxes and their role in physical and ecological processes. Applications are open until March 30, 2015.

| Description: | The US Geological Survey is offering a funding opportunity to a CESU partner for research Ice2O, to integrate observations from multiple data sets within different disciplines to quantitatively describe glacier-forced change in the Pacific Coastal Temperate Rainforest (PCTR) hydrologic cycle. Rapid mass loss from glaciers constitutes a primary driver for regional hydrologic change. In the PCTR, freshwater fluxes are a key link between physical and ecological processes. This project will provide tools to enhance science-based management of the PCTR ecosystem. These results are essential to a diverse range of science and management applications that reach far beyond glacier mass balance, including water resources, ocean circulation and stratification, fisheries management, tourism, flood forecasting and hydropower. |
