The study is funded by a 1.4 million dollar grant from Minnesota’s environment and natural resources trust fund, enshrined in the state’s constitution to support projects meant to protect, conserve, preserve and enhance Minnesota’s natural resources. BSU graduate researchers will be led by Dr. Jacob Haus, Associate professor of biology.
