This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant award of $749,924 to the University of Wyoming will fund a research project titled "DISES-EX RAINBOWS ON THE HORIZON: UNDERSTANDING THE DYNAMICS OF INTEGRATED CLIMATE, RIVER, TROUT, TOURISM, AND POLICY SYSTEMS IN THE MOUNTAIN WEST". The project examines the socio-ecological system impacts of climate change on trout fisheries in the American Mountain West region, with the goal of understanding how trout populations and the associated bio-economy are affected. The research will use climate, hydrological, and ecosystem modeling to assess biodiversity changes for four trout species, and survey public recreationists and industry stakeholders to understand the impacts on outdoor recreation and livelihoods. The findings will inform policy and collaborative management approaches to protect the mountain trout fisheries. The award period is from May 1, 2025 to October 31, 2028, and includes plans for sub-awards.
