This award provides partial support for the construction of a central research facility at the Jasper Ridge Biological Preserve of Stanford. The Preserve currently has a patchwork of dispersed, antiquated structures that were never intended to be permanent or to serve their current functions. The new centralized buildings will provide space for research, and for a variety of educational activities. The Preserve offers significant research opportunities in a number of fields because of the geologic history of its site, the resulting ecological diversity in the area, and the proximity of the site to research and educational institutions in the San Francisco Bay Area. Research activities at the site include a number of long-term and short-term projects, both representing a broad range of disciplines and a diverse community of researchers. Areas of research strength include: multi-disciplinary studies of global change; biological invasions; global biogeochemistry; conservation biology; and landscape and community ecology. The new construction has been planned with three major considerations: needs demonstrated by research programs at the site over the past 10 years; current and anticipated research programs, including pending proposals; and feedback from visiting scientists and students. The new centralized facility is expected to accommodate current activities plus 20% growth over a 20-year period.

该奖项为斯坦福大学贾斯珀岭生物保护区中央研究设施的建设提供部分支持。该保护区目前有一些分散的、陈旧的建筑，这些建筑从来没有打算成为永久性的或服务于其当前的功能。新的集中建筑将为研究和各种教育活动提供空间。由于该保护区的地质历史、该地区由此产生的生态多样性以及该保护区靠近旧金山湾区的研究和教育机构，该保护区在许多领域提供了重要的研究机会。该基地的研究活动包括许多长期和短期项目，两者都代表了广泛的学科和多元化的研究人员群体。研究优势领域包括：全球变化的多学科研究；生物入侵；全球生物地球化学；保护生物学；以及景观和社区生态。 新建筑的规划主要考虑了三个因素：过去 10 年现场研究项目所证明的需求；当前和预期的研究计划，包括待决的提案；以及访问科学家和学生的反馈。新的集中设施预计可满足当前活动的需求，并在 20 年内实现 20% 的增长。
