Working under the direction of the Northwestern Band of the Shoshone Nation and funded by the National Science Foundation, this project aims to develop and implement a transdisciplinary framework for Restoring Indigenous Socio-Environmental Systems (RISES). The RISES team will synthesize information on past climate, environment, and land use to identify the factors that enhance the occurrence and diversity of culturally important plant and animal species over the last ten thousand years. This information will be used to help inform strategies to restore Indigenous socio-environmental systems in the Bear River Basin and beyond.
