Lewis & Clark College was awarded a $157,213 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Office of International Science and Engineering under the Office of International Science and Engineering federal grant program (CFDA 47.079). The grant will fund a collaborative research project titled "TROPICAL RESEARCH EXPERIENCE IN ECOLOGICAL SCIENCE (TREES): REGENERATION DYNAMICS IN A HYPER-DIVERSE TROPICAL FOREST" from September 1, 2021 through August 31, 2024. The grant aims to enable U.S. researchers to strengthen international partnerships and advance scientific discovery through research on tropical forest regeneration dynamics. Specifically, the College will use the funding to support a collaborative research experience for U.S. students and researchers to study regeneration patterns in a hyper-diverse tropical forest located in Portland, Oregon, with the goal of contributing to the scientific understanding of tropical forest ecology.
