Description
The Division of Environmental Biology (DEB) supports research and training on evolutionary and ecological processes at various biological levels including populations, species, communities, ecosystems, macrosystems, and biogeographic extents. The research may involve field, laboratory, or collection-based approaches, observational or manipulative studies, synthesis activities, phylogenetic discovery projects, or theoretical approaches such as analytical, statistical, or computational modeling. Proposals should be submitted to core clusters including Ecosystem Science, Evolutionary Processes, Population and Community Ecology, and Systematics and Biodiversity Science. DEB encourages interdisciplinary proposals that integrate multiple biological organization levels or spatial and temporal scales.
