Opportunity Summary:
The Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit, Northwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) Program opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number G13AS00097) is a U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) research funding announcement issued through the Fort Collins Science Center (FORT). It is a discretionary science and technology/research and development award that will be made as a cooperative agreement, meaning the USGS expects to have substantial involvement in the work as it is carried out (for example, collaborating on study design, coordination, data use, and deliverables rather than simply providing funds and receiving a final report).
The purpose of the award is to support research that helps develop spatially explicit demographic models for greater sage-grouse in Wyoming. In practical terms, this points to building quantitative models that connect sage-grouse population dynamics (such as survival, reproduction, recruitment, and movement) to geography, so that demographic rates and population outcomes can be estimated or projected across space. These kinds of models are commonly used to understand where populations are doing well or poorly, identify drivers of change, and inform conservation and management decisions at landscape scales.
Funding is expected to support one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $150,000. The announcement lists no formal award ceiling or floor, which usually indicates the agency did not set a strict per-award maximum/minimum in the public listing even though the total anticipated amount is known. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to provide non-federal funds or in-kind match as a condition of eligibility.
Eligibility is limited to partners of the Pacific Northwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) Program, consistent with how CESU opportunities operate. CESUs are collaborative partnerships designed to facilitate research, technical assistance, and education activities among federal agencies and partner institutions. This opportunity is therefore not broadly open to all entities; applicants must already be an official participating CESU partner within the specified network to be considered eligible.
Key administrative details include the CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) number 15.808, identified as U.S. Geological Survey Research and Data Collection. The opportunity was posted and created on July 10, 2013. The original closing date was July 19, 2013, and it was later extended to a current closing date of August 2, 2013. The archive date is October 10, 2013, indicating the announcement is no longer active after that point.
For applicants or interested parties who needed the full announcement and had trouble accessing it online, the listed contact is Faith Graves at the USGS (phone 703-648-7356; email fgraves@usgs.gov). The public listing also referenced Grants.gov as the source for full details via an additional information link.
