This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $333,831 supports the Research Experiences for Undergraduates Sites program at the University of New Mexico Sevilleta Field Station from March 2023 through February 2026. The grant funds research training for 30 undergraduate students over three summers in the areas of dryland ecology and biodiversity in the northern Chihuahuan Desert. Students conduct high-quality research projects within the context of the Sevilleta Long Term Ecological Research program, which examines the impacts of climate variability. In addition to research, participants receive training in ethics, science communication, and interacting with environmental artists. The goal is to provide underrepresented students opportunities to experience aridland ecosystems and conservation careers first-hand, with the aim of advancing their participation in environmental sciences graduate programs and careers. Assessment indicates the program effectively prepares students to fill critical national workforce needs.
