The University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), doing business as the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), received a five-year, $102,313 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Office of Integrative Activities. The grant supports the "Collaborative Research: GCR: Co-Defining Climate Refugia to Inform the Management of Mountain Headwater Systems" project under the NSF's Integrative Activities program (CFDA #47.083).
The project aims to enhance understanding of climate change impacts on mountain headwater systems through collaborative research defining climate refugia. Refugia are areas that may mitigate or buffer climate change impacts on ecosystems and species. The research will inform management and conservation of these critical mountain water systems. The $102,313 in funding will be used by NCAR over five years from October 2021 through September 2026 to conduct the collaborative research project.
