Minnesota Biodiversity Atlas - Phase 2
We propose to double the size of a natural resource management tool, the Minnesota Biodiversity Atlas, by including state agency observations and specimen records from four additional museum collections.
$350,000 the second year is from the trust fund to the Board of Regents of the University of Minnesota to expand the biodiversity atlas project by adding more than 800,000 records and images of Minnesota wildlife, plants, and fungi, including observations from state agencies and other museum collections, to enhance research, guide field surveys, and inform conservation planning. This appropriation is available until June 30, 2021, by which time the project must be completed and final products delivered.
