Opportunity Information: Apply for P15AS01001
The grant opportunity is focused on a project titled "Using GIS and SAR imagery to assess fish and yellow-billed loon habitat in the Arctic Network of Alaska Parklands," led by the University of Alaska Fairbanks, specifically Dr. Christopher Arp. The National Park Service intends to award $100,000 through a cooperative agreement for this initiative, which will run from July 1, 2015, to December 31, 2016.
The project aims to fill the gaps in data regarding fish species distributions in the Arctic parklands, particularly within the Bering Land Bridge National Preserve. Traditional sampling methods are impractical in such remote areas, so the project will utilize advanced techniques, including Geographic Information Systems (GIS), high-resolution satellite imagery, and Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) to develop a geospatial database. This data will focus on identifying potential overwintering fish habitats that support the yellow-billed loon, an important species that depends on fish resources and has been considered for endangered status.
The collaboration involves significant input from both the University of Alaska Fairbanks and the National Park Service, with UAF leading the data compilation and analysis, while the National Park Service will provide funding, yellow-billed loon and fish occurrence data, and support for outreach and reporting efforts. The justification for a single-source award is based on UAF's unique qualifications and ongoing research expertise in remote sensing, highlighting the necessity of this partnership to advance knowledge on Arctic fisheries.Apply for P15AS01001
