Opportunity Information: Apply for G17AS00086
The Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit, Great Plains CESU opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number G17AS00086) is a discretionary federal funding announcement from the U.S. Department of the Interior, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), specifically through the Northern Prairie Wildlife Research Center (NPWRC). It is offered as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the USGS expects to be actively involved in the project rather than acting only as a pass-through funder. The work falls under the Science and Technology and other Research and Development activity category and is listed under CFDA 15.808.
The purpose of this award is to support a CESU partner in building a new, collaborative line of research between USGS and the Great Plains Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit network. The research focus is on federally listed bird species in the Northern Great Plains, with emphasis on least terns and piping plovers. In practical terms, the project is intended to examine two connected areas: (1) habitat features that influence where these birds occur, nest, and successfully reproduce, and (2) demographic parameters, meaning measurable population and life-history metrics such as survival, breeding success, productivity, recruitment, and other indicators that help explain population status and trends. The overall intent is to improve understanding of the ecological conditions and population dynamics affecting these protected species in that region, and to strengthen a sustained research partnership between USGS and a CESU member institution.
Eligibility is restricted to CESU partners (the listing notes "Others" with additional eligibility details in the full announcement), reflecting the program design where projects are competed or directed within the CESU network to leverage established federal-academic or federal-nonprofit collaborations. The opportunity anticipates a single award, with a maximum federal funding amount (award ceiling) of $75,000. The announcement was created on June 21, 2017, with an original application closing date of July 7, 2017, indicating a relatively short submission window consistent with targeted cooperative research solicitations.
In summary, this is a small, single-award, research-focused cooperative agreement intended to initiate or expand a USGS-led collaborative research effort through the Great Plains CESU. The central deliverable is applied scientific knowledge about how habitat characteristics relate to key demographic outcomes for least terns and piping plovers in the Northern Great Plains, supporting conservation and management decision-making for these federally listed species.Apply for G17AS00086
