Abstract
Enclosed are the rationale and budget in request for supplemental funding under the Schoolyard LTER development program. The 2009-2010 funds would be used to strengthen existing partnerships. The request includes funds for supplies aimed at school-based activities and SGS Field Station needs related to education, and funds to support our regional outreach efforts to the broader community.
Description
Includes bibliographical references (pages 9-10).
The SGS-LTER research site was established in 1980 by researchers at Colorado State University as part of a network of long-term research sites within the US LTER Network, supported by the National Science Foundation. Scientists within the Natural Resource Ecology Lab, Department of Forest and Rangeland Stewardship, Department of Soil and Crop Sciences, and Biology Department at CSU, California State Fullerton, USDA Agricultural Research Service, University of Northern Colorado, and the University of Wyoming, among others, have contributed to our understanding of the structure and functions of the shortgrass steppe and other diverse ecosystems across the network while maintaining a common mission and sharing expertise, data and infrastructure.
