Opportunity Information: Apply for F17AS00058
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) is offering a grant opportunity focused on the modeling of fish populations in the Great Lakes Basin, specifically in relation to contaminants of emerging concern (CEC). This initiative is part of the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative and is managed from the USFWS Region 3 Office in Bloomington, Minnesota. The aim is to recruit an ecological modeler experienced in fish and wildlife population modeling for chemical risk assessments.
Since 2010, a team of scientists has been assessing the potential impacts of CEC exposure on fish in Great Lakes tributaries. Population modeling will play a crucial role in a comprehensive risk assessment of these contaminants in aquatic systems. The project must be designed and completed by September 28, 2018, and will culminate in a functioning model simulating population dynamics as influenced by CEC exposure, along with a detailed report outlining the model's structure, data, variables, and results.
This opportunity does not have a competitive application process. Instead, a cooperative agreement will be awarded to the University of Minnesota-St. Paul Venturelli Lab, as they are deemed uniquely qualified for the role based on their expertise in fish population modeling, especially concerning sturgeon and environmental toxicity. The lab has a history of collaboration with the project team, aligning their goals with those of the USFWS.
The funding instrument is a Cooperative Agreement, given that USFWS will be actively involved in the project's success, including guiding the identification of species for modeling and providing necessary data and technical support throughout the process.Apply for F17AS00058
