…earlier, this phase will incorporate new measurement and experimental studies of land-cover change (resulting from forest harvesting, conversion, and land protection) and the spread of invasive species (plants, pests, and…

…years they will study how forests respond to changes in climate, the spread of invasive species, and use of land by humans. Scientists will start some new studies and continue…

…soil water dynamics, surface hydrology, dynamics of animal populations, animal-produced soil disturbance, nitrogen cycling processes and stable isotope distributions of nitrogen and carbon in widespread ecosystems, ranging from black grama…

…spread rapidly from elsewhere (non-native or “invasive” species). The goal of this project is to test new ideas about what causes these sorts of changes. Scientists at universities and at…

…an established leader in developing and using ecological approaches to improving our understanding of agroecosystems. KBS research deals with food production, a topic of global significance, and has ready practical…
