Resilient economy and security through ecosystem transitions grants
Research on ecosystem transitions, resilience, security and prosperity.
This funding opportunity will fund interdisciplinary or transdisciplinary research on UK and international ecosystems. It will generate new understanding of how, when and why ecosystems transition, reorganise or collapse, and how those transitions affect ecosystem functions and resilience.
Projects should address one or more of three themes: predicting ecosystem change and transitions; understand…
In scope: interdisciplinary or transdisciplinary research on UK and international ecosystems; natural or semi-natural ecosystems in terrestrial, freshwater, or terrestrial-marine transitional environments including coastal seas; and one or more themes of predicting ecosystem change and transitions, understanding ecosystem change through cascading risks, or building ecosystem resilience. Out of scope: projects focused primarily on urban built-up areas, intensive farming or aquaculture, intensive commercial forestry plantations, active mining or oil or gas extraction, major infrastructure including major roads or active railway lines or tracts. Projects whose primary purpose is to develop operational nature security risk taxonomies, policy-facing early warning frameworks, government decision-support tools, or applied ecosystem assessment toolkits are out of scope unless clearly positioned as research outputs that provide underpinning evidence or methods for use by the wider RESET programme.
