We have had DoD grants for studying the demography of endangered species nearly continuously for 12-13 years. It is important to ensure that the work provides the installation supporting it with the data necessary to make effective management recommendations, to work with the base to make sure the management is informed by the science, and that the research is conducted so that results of management actions can be monitored and management adaptively modified if needed. We have found it relatively easy to tailor our demographic research to meet both our research agenda and to meet the installations needs.
