The purpose of this Summary of Awards for the Division of Environmental Biology is to provide the scientific and engineering communities with information about the awards made in Fiscal Year 1999. This report lists only those projects funded using Fiscal Year 1999 dollars and hence does not list multi-year awards initiated prior to Fiscal Year 1999.

Similar areas of research are grouped together for reader convenience. The reader is cautioned, however, not to assume that these categories represent the totality of interests of each program, or the total scope of each grant. Projects may bridge several programs or deal with topics not explicitly mentioned herein. Thus, these categories have been assigned administratively and for the purpose of this report only.

In this document, grantee institutions and principal investigators are identified first. Award indentification numbers, amounts, and durations are enumerated after the individual project titles. Within each category, the awards are listed alphabetically by state and institution. This report was compiled from Foundation records. However, the data included here are unofficial. The Division of Environmental Biology is responsible for the information cited in this document.

Readers wishing further information on any particular project described in this report are advised to contact the principle investigators directly.
