Opportunity Information: Apply for 10HQPA0048
The U.S. Geological Survey is inviting universities to apply for a cooperative agreement focused on modeling research related to hydroecological questions. This opportunity involves utilizing the RHESSys model to simulate ecosystem processes and hydrology in five diverse forested montane watersheds across the western U.S.: MacDonald Watershed in Montana, Loch Vale Watershed in Colorado, Jemez Watershed in New Mexico, Upper Merced Watershed in California, and Stehekin Watershed in Washington.
Research goals for 2010-2013 include:
1. Refining RHESSys model estimates of ecohydrologic responses by incorporating new data to enhance the insights gained from previous simulations. 2. Forecasting how ecosystems respond—specifically in terms of hydrology, vegetation, disturbance, and aquatic habitat—under climate change scenarios. 3. Quantifying streamflow responses to climate and ecological factors, determining current and future streamflow estimates, and evaluating changes in snow and glacier melt dynamics along with shifts in vegetation water use to understand alterations in streamflow patterns. This will also include computing relevant streamflow metrics to assess the vulnerability of aquatic life under changing climates. 4. Exploring the interactions between hydrology, vegetation, and disturbance by developing a comprehensive modeling framework. This will integrate carbon cycling and hydrological modeling in RHESSys with species-specific forest successional models and a fire spread model linked to watershed hydrology.
The initiative aims to start with the five core watersheds and expand to at least five additional montane watersheds to encompass a wider variety of environmental conditions across the western U.S.Apply for 10HQPA0048
