Description

The Long Term Research in Environmental Biology (LTREB) Program supports extended time series data generation to address key questions in evolutionary biology, ecology, and ecosystem science. Research areas include natural selection effects, interspecific interactions, population dynamics, ecological and evolutionary feedbacks, nutrient pools, and climatic cycles. The program supports decadal projects with initial funding for five years requiring a 15-page project description and renewal proposals for subsequent periods. Eligible applicants include non-profit organizations, institutions of higher education, and international branch campuses of U.S. institutions with justification.
