The
CBC's position as an organized research unit at the University of
California Berkeley has been renewed for a further five years following
a successful review of the first five years of operation.
Currently supported projects
In Fall 2006 CBC provided further support for the
Ecological Flora of California
project.
This is a new component of the Jepson Flora Project that will provide
ecological information on the California flora.
CBC is a sponsor of
the California Ecological Observatory Network (CalEON) - a
regional network of field sites, natural history museums, and
university labs. In addition to contributing to the Caleon
website CBC is sponsoring the 5th CalEON planning meeting at UC
Berkeley in November 2006.
CBC is supporting the development of interactive keys and
photo identification guides for Berkeley Natural
History Reserves in conjunction with graduate students and faculty
in the ESSIG Museum of Entomology and the University and Jepson
Herbaria.
CBC continues to sponsor the production of a weekly seminar listing of
all ecology, evolution and environmental science seminars on vampus.
Projects we support
CBC has a small amount of funding available to support projects that further
the mission of the CBC.
See the examples above or our list of past projects
here.
If you have a project that you would like supported then, in the first
instance, send a brief (under 1 page) description of the project along
with a list of current funding sources to
John Latto, Academic Coordinator of the CBC.
