This $199,049 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Environmental Biology (CFDA 47.074 Biological Sciences) supports research to understand how visits by migratory animals like birds, bats, and insects impact plants at stopover sites during their annual migrations. The primary objectives are to use computer modeling to examine how these migratory animals, through pollination, seed dispersal, and other ecological interactions, affect the growth and spread of plant populations at stopover locations. As part of the project, the researchers will also work with a local St. Paul, Minnesota elementary school to expand student access to computer programming using robots. The award has a performance period from July 15, 2024 to June 30, 2028 and is being executed by the Regents of the University of Minnesota.
