How Much Stimulus Funding is Going to Your County?

Missoula County, Mont., funds by National Science Foundation

Listing $6,097,625.00 in stimulus funds from National Science Foundation for Missoula

Note: For some programs where states do not report where money will be distributed across the state, we do not have the allocation for individual counties. Those programs include: Medicaid, unemployment benefits and food stamps. Those amounts are included in the totals for where the state agency receiving that money is located.

Amount refers to both the amount of stimulus funding going toward the project and the face value of the loan.

UNIVERSITY OF MONTANA SYSTEM $837,367 Trans-NSF Recovery Act Reasearch Support The proposed studies examine a set of questions about how leaf microclimates - the temperature and relative humidity adjacent to a leafs' surface - influence insect-plant associations. Frist, how different are leaf microclimates from nearby macroclimates National Science Foundation 6/23/2009
UNIVERSITY OF MONTANA SYSTEM $578,295 Trans-NSF Recovery Act Reasearch Support This project proposes to examine how mammalian and avian predators, as a group, influence the abundance of a relatively simple assemblage of small mammal consumers consisting of deer mice, montane voles and Columbian ground squirrels. In-turn, we will ex National Science Foundation 8/14/2009
UNIVERSITY OF MONTANA SYSTEM $474,340 Trans-NSF Recovery Act Reasearch Support This research wil make a direct test of the hypothesis that surface melt water penetrates to the bed of the ice sheet where it directly influences ice sliding rates. Further, this work will test the notion that observations and descriptions of processes National Science Foundation 8/24/2009
