South Carolina Research Activities
The Cooperative Research Units Program conducts research related to fish, wildlife, and natural resource management. The programs offer Federal and State agencies access not only to unit scientists, but also to university expertise and facilities available at each of the 40 cooperating universities. Most research projects are carried out by graduate students participating with and/or under the direction of unit or other university scientists.
Research expertise at the SC Unit includes include ecology and conservation of seabirds and shorebirds, reproductive energetics, conservation physiology, ecology and conservation of wildlife on golf courses, demographics of wildlife populations, and disease ecology of mesopredators in urban and suburban habitats.
