9311436 Gower, S. The Kemp Natural Resources Station, a research center operated by the University of Wisconsin-Madison's College of Agricultural and Life Sciences, is located in north-central Wisconsin. The station has several unique characteristics: (1) It is located near some of the few remaining large tracts of old growth forests int he easter United States, (2) It is located in a region that contains diverse landforms that are juxtaposed in complex patterns, (3) The proximal location of Keep to Trout Lake Station offer an excellent opportunity to examine interactions between terrestrial and research and undergraduate/graduate training scale. Keep has a long history as a center for community ecology, wildlife ecology, plant pathology and entomology. Current research programs include biological and physical sciences such as terrestrial ecosystem ecology, ecophysiology, restoration, and landscape ecology; and involve scientists from UW-Madison and other UW campuses, USFS, USGS, and several American and Canadian universities. Despite recent and ongoing improvements to both physical structure and research capabilities at Keep Station, the laboratory facilities are not adequate to meet current and future demands. This project will support the remodeling and expansion of the existing research laboratory and the purchase an image analysis system. The modernization of the laboratory will re-establish Keep Natural Resources Station as a center for terrestrial research and promote inter-disciplinary research on terrestrial-aquatic interaction with scientists at Trout Lake Station -- a center for aquatic research. ***

9311436 Gower, S. 坎普自然资源站是威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校农业与生命科学学院运营的一个研究中心，位于威斯康星州中北部。 该站有几个独特的特点：（1）它位于美国东部仅存的几片大片原始森林附近，（2）它所在的地区有多种地貌，这些地貌以复杂的模式并置。 , (3) Keep 距离特劳特湖站最近的位置为检查陆地与研究以及本科生/研究生培训规模之间的相互作用提供了绝佳的机会。 保持作为群落生态学、野生动物生态学、植物病理学和昆虫学中心的悠久历史。 目前的研究项目包括生物和物理科学，如陆地生态系统生态学、生态生理学、恢复和景观生态学；并涉及来自威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校和威斯康星大学其他校区、USFS、USGS 以及几所美国和加拿大大学的科学家。 尽管Keep Station的物理结构和研究能力最近不断得到改善，但实验室设施仍不足以满足当前和未来的需求。 该项目将支持现有研究实验室的改建和扩建以及购买图像分析系统。 实验室的现代化改造将重建Keep自然资源站作为陆地研究中心，并与水生研究中心特劳特湖站的科学家一起促进陆地与水生相互作用的跨学科研究。 ***
