Projects
The Missouri Ozark Forest Ecosystem Project (MOFEP) is a long-term, landscape-level experiment measuring the living (i.e. birds, plants, trees) and non-living (i.e. soil, water, weather) parts of a forested ecosystem. MOFEP provides science-based information to forest managers so they may employ management practices that ensure healthy and sustainable forest, fish and wildlife resources while also providing opportunities to all citizens to use, enjoy and learn about their forest resource.
Land managers of both public and private lands need rapid and repeatable assessment and monitoring tools to gauge the health of the natural communities they are restoring such as tallgrass prairies or glades.
A multi-agency, multi-discipline partnership designed to develop a land classification model based on biotic and abiotic factors.
