About this award

This is a $1,562,165 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science (UMCES) to support research on peatland restoration in Indonesia. The project aims to assist Indonesia's Peatland Restoration Agency (BRG) in blocking drainage canals to rewet, revegetate, and revitalize 2.5 million hectares of degraded peatlands by 2020. UMCES, a state-supported research and educational institution, will leverage its environmental science expertise to conduct this research, which aligns with federal priorities in climate change mitigation and sustainable resource management. No set-aside designation was applied to this award, as UMCES is classified as a U.S. state government entity and state-controlled institution of higher learning.
