Carbon Sequestration Potential for Tamaulipan Brushlands 2009: South Texas Refuge Complex seeks a scientific contractor to acquire biological data to assist the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in seeking solutions to combat climate change through the evaluation of carbon sequestration capability of the dominant plants found in the Lower Rio Grande Valley of Texas.The contractor will provide a map of the distribution of potential carbon amounts in the brushland habitat both within the refuge and in adjacent lands derived from combined ecosystem process simulation with remote sensing data inputs.Cooperator affirms that no less than 50 percent of the total cost of the project will be contributed by Cooperator and that no portion of the Cooperator's contribution is of Federal origin. Cost-share value can be derived from labor, materials, equipment, land, water, and/or cash.
