Conservation International’s Critical Ecosystem Partnership Fund has awarded a grant to Gerard Hertel in the Department of Biology to do research in the Eastern Arc Mountains and Coastal Forests biodiversity hotspot in Kenya and Tanzania in 2006.
Trends in the Health of Selected Forests in the Eastern Arc and Coastal Forest Re-measure a series of forests plots five years after they were established in priority areas throughout the region to assess the trends in forest health. These data will provide a solid indication of the impacts that specific levels of threat have on the forests to assist with forest management. $45,519 7/05-12/06 |
