Opportunity Information: Apply for P15AS00361

The grant opportunity focuses on mapping drought stress in giant sequoia trees through advanced data collection techniques. The project aims to gather high-resolution hyperspectral and LiDAR data to assess the impact of drought on mature sequoias and their forest surroundings. Collaborators from the Carnegie Institution of Washington and National Park Service will work together on this initiative, initially funded for Phase 1, with potential for future phases based on progress and funding availability.

Phase 1 objectives include:

1. Collecting cutting-edge hyperspectral and LiDAR imagery from sequoia forests during drought conditions. 2. Analyzing this data to generate moisture stress indices for the trees and surrounding forest, focusing on canopy water content, greenness, and structure. 3. Establishing correlations between remotely sensed canopy anomalies and on-ground observations of drought stress. 4. Interpreting the findings and assessing confidence in the results, particularly concerning the types and extent of drought impacts. 5. Planning for future mapping of grove moisture stress vulnerabilities.

Future objectives will be shaped by project outcomes, available data, and funding, potentially involving enhancements to methodology or expanding the scope of research.
