Opportunity Information: Apply for P16AS00272
The National Park Service (NPS) intends to fund a project aimed at developing a statistical adaptive monitoring framework for sea otters in Glacier Bay National Park & Preserve through a collaborative effort with Colorado State University (CSU). The total award amount for this project is anticipated to be $200,000, covering a duration of four years from September 9, 2015, to July 1, 2018.
This funding announcement is classified as a single-source award, meaning no competitive bidding will take place. The project will focus on refining monitoring methods for evaluating the spatial distribution and abundance of sea otters using photographic techniques. It is divided into two phases: Phase 1 involves model development and testing, while Phase 2, which has received an additional $80,000, concentrates on the documentation and refinement of the monitoring methods.
Key objectives in Phase II include optimizing a spatio-temporal model, conducting pilot studies to assess performance, and producing a peer-reviewed manuscript and monitoring protocol that institutionalizes the long-term monitoring of sea otters in the Glacier Bay ecosystem. This monitoring will contribute valuable data for understanding ecological impacts associated with sea otter colonization.
NPS justified this single-source funding based on the project's continuation as part of an existing agreement, emphasizing CSU's unique qualifications and expertise in this area of research. Collaboration is planned with other agencies and experts to ensure comprehensive survey design and analysis.Apply for P16AS00272
