Cooperative Agreement for Affiliated Partner with the Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU)
Funds building monthly drought forecast maps that tell rangeland managers when restoration will likely succeed.
Wildfire and invasive species are reshaping the dryland rangelands of the western US, and restoration only works when it is timed right โ planting into a drought is money wasted. This notice funds building a forecast that tells managers when conditions are actually favourable.
Two things get built. First, wall-to-wall monthly forecasts of soil drought and seed-establishment odds across the westerโฆ
Developing gridded, monthly ecological-drought and seed-establishment forecasts for western US rangelands, and expanding a platform that delivers those forecasts to land managers, so restoration work is timed for when conditions favour it. Also synthesises published research on what conditions key restoration species need to establish.
