USGS is offering a grant for a CESU partner to conduct research on tidal saline wetland elevation change trends. The research aims to enhance understanding of wetlands’ response to sea level rise and associated processes. It seeks to analyze elevation trends nationwide in relation to geographic region, geomorphic setting, sediment supply, plant species, and sea level rise. This research will contribute to advancing knowledge on coastal wetland vulnerability, tidal wetland evolution, and meeting management needs. Closing date for applications is May 22, 2020.
