Opportunity Information: Apply for P13AS00062
The National Park Service (NPS) is planning to fund a project titled "Evaluating the Influences of Nitrogen Deposition Gradients on Plant Diversity" without a competitive application process. The funding amount is $64,848, allocated to The Regents University of Colorado, under the leadership of Principal Investigator William Bowman, and is set to run until September 30, 2014.
The project focuses on studying how nitrogen deposition affects plant diversity in four specific regions: the northern Colorado Plateau, the southern Colorado Plateau, remnant prairies in Minnesota and Iowa, and parts of North Dakota and Montana. These areas have recently seen increases in nitrogen emissions due to oil and gas activities or agricultural development. The goal is to conduct field surveys to gather data on plant and soil diversity along nitrogen deposition gradients, as current information in these regions is lacking.
The research will involve collaboration with the NPS and will include detailed assessments of vegetation composition, soil sampling, and analysis of the nitrogen content in plant tissues. Additionally, the study aims to link nitrogen deposition rates to plant diversity in these ecosystems, providing insights that could inform conservation efforts in national park units.
The justification for not opening the opportunity to competition highlights that the University of Colorado is uniquely qualified for this project due to its expertise, access to relevant data, and ongoing collaborations with other research agencies like the EPA and USGS. The research is intended to fill gaps in existing datasets and enhance understanding of how nitrogen impacts biodiversity across various landscapes, especially in areas of significant ecological concern.Apply for P13AS00062
