This award provides funds to establish a Cooperative facilities                 Center for Research on the Ecology of Spatial Heterogeneity at                  the University of Minnesota.  The facility will intergrate the                  tolls of geographic information systems, image analysis,                        simulation models, and ecosystem analysis for research on the                   spatial dynamics of ecosystems in relation to global climate                    change, herbivores, cumulative impacts of disturbances, and                     Quaternary and bedrock geology.  The participants are a                         mulitidisciplinary group of researchers from three campuses with                expertise in wetland, riverine and forest ecosystems,                           Quaternary and exploration geology, palynology, ecological                      modeling, air photo interpretation and remote sensing, zoology,                 and forest economics.  The facility will strengthen collaboration               among the researchers and provide a tool to address common                      problems.  The investigators are conducting meritorious research,               have an adequate publication record, and have extramural support.
