Department of Defense Grant

What are the chances of the Department of Defense funding a graduate student in 
community 
ecology? Does anyone know ecologists with these grants? Their previous awards 
seem to tend 
towards physics, math, and engineering.any thoughts?

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.

Check out the DOD Legacy Fund.

Almost went to grad school @ Yale (FNR) with a
(partially) funded Legacy project (restoring a
Chamaecyparis t. swamp), but got a better offer @
UCONN.
