The U.S. Geological Survey’s (USGS) Powell Center is offering a grant for comprehensive research into the global effects of multi-year droughts on terrestrial ecosystems. This cooperative agreement focuses on synthesizing ecosystem impacts across the extensive International Drought Experiment (IDE) network, which comprises over 100 sites globally. Key tasks include testing cross-ecosystem sensitivity to extreme drought, addressing how ecosystems respond to prolonged drought, and assessing the relative importance of both direct (reduced water availability) and indirect (plant community change) mechanisms. The project aims to prepare manuscripts and publish comprehensive data via the Environmental Data Initiative, contributing vital insights into climate change impacts.
