Support/Grants for field-based natural science research at the Ives Lake
Field Station, Huron Mountains, Marquette Co., Michigan
The Huron Mountain Wildlife Foundation invites proposals for field-based
research in all areas of natural science focused on the landscape and
ecosystems of the Lake Superior basin, particularly the Huron Mountains of
Michigan's Upper Peninsula.
HMWF offers:
* Exclusive access to a 10,000 ha private natural area, including
extensive old-growth forests, diverse aquatic systems, Lake Superior
shoreline, and a variety of other habitats.
* Work facilities and housing free of charge for approved projects at the
Ives Lake Field Station near Big Bay, MI
* Small grants (see link below for further information).
The Foundation is particularly interested in proposals that exploit the
"reference ecosystem" values of the research area, initiate potential
long-term studies, or establish foundations for proposals to major funding
agencies. HMWF also supports biodiversity documentation and is particularly
interested in projects addressing poorly studied groups (see website for
current biodiversity inventory).
Guidelines for proposals are at www.hmwf.org ('for researchers' tab), along
with information about facilities and past and present research projects.
Proposals for the 2025 field season should be submitted by 1 Feb 2025.
This deadline is strict if grant funds are requested; later proposals with
no request for funding may be entertained depending on capacity of
facilities.
Please distribute this information to departments/colleagues.
