The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Alaska Science Center is offering this grant to a Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) partner, aiming to advance critical wildlife research. This funding opportunity is specifically designed for comprehensive studies on lynx within the Gates of the Arctic National Park and Preserve. The central purpose of this grant is to quantify the seasonal use and selection of diverse habitats and specific prey items by lynx populations. Furthermore, the research seeks to meticulously document their diel (24-hour cycle) and broader seasonal activity patterns, along with their associated travel rates. This initiative is crucial for generating valuable ecological data, enhancing our understanding of lynx behavior, and ultimately informing robust conservation and management strategies within this significant Arctic ecosystem.
