Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Units (CESUs) provide research, technical assistance, and education to federal land management, environmental, and research agencies and their partners. Their broad scope includes the biological, physical, social, cultural, and engineering disciplines needed to address natural and cultural resource management issues at multiple scales and in an ecosystem context. Overhead costs are limited to 17.5%, allowing more money to go toward science.
The multi-disciplinary structure of CESUs and their low over-head rate makes them well-suited to address federal agency needs for sustainability science.
