Description

The U. S. Geological Survey¿s Greater Everglades Priority Ecosystem Research Program is offering a funding opportunity to a CESU partner for research in modeling the biological control of invasive plants as part of the Across Trophic Level System Situation (ATLSS) program. This is aimed at the sustainable control of two invasive plant species in southern Florida that have caused substantial harm to the environment; the water hyacinth ((Eichhornia crassipes) and the Melaleuca tree (Melaleuca quinquenervia). The request is for the development of simulation models that can be used in combination with ongoing experimental and field research by the Department of Agriculture¿s Invasive Plant Research Laboratory (IPRL).
