## Who can apply

- Others (see text field entitled "Additional Information on Eligibility" for clarification)

This financial assistance opportunity is being issued under a Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Units (CESU) Program. CESU"s are partnerships that provide research, technical assistance, and education. Eligible recipients must be a participating partner of the Great Basin Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) Program.

## What the grant funds

The USGS is offering a funding opportunity to a CESU partner for research to fill critical information gaps in the inventory of vegetation cover and soil factors including carbon relating to the site resistance to wildfire-promoting invasive plants and site recovery after fire in semiarid uplands. This will support the USGS priorities of providing objective, science-based information needed to facilitate the productive use of large landscapes for military and other uses. Exotic grass invasions and the wildfires they promote have been identified as the most significant threat to the security of the vast, semiarid military landscapes in the cold desert range of the Western USA.
