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.Enclosed are the rationale and budget request for supplemental funding under the Schoolyard LTER development program. The existing programs will be built upon. Funds will be provided to schools for schoolyard plot and program development.born digitalgrant proposalsengCopyright and other restrictions may apply.
