Opportunity Information: Apply for G20AS00085
The Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) Piedmont South Atlantic Coast funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number G20AS00085) is a discretionary, science-and-technology focused research grant offered by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) within the Department of the Interior. It is issued as a cooperative agreement, which generally means the USGS expects to have substantial involvement in the work as it is carried out, rather than simply providing funds for an independently run project. The opportunity was created on June 15, 2020, with an original closing date of June 30, 2020, indicating a short application window consistent with targeted research needs and established partnerships.
The core purpose of the award is to support the USGS Northern Prairie Wildlife Research Center (NPWRC) in building a new, collaborative line of research with an eligible CESU partner. The scientific focus is on Hudsonian godwits, a migratory shorebird, specifically studying their occurrence and abundance and identifying or characterizing the stopover habitats they use in the Great Plains. In practical terms, the project is intended to improve understanding of where and in what numbers these birds use Great Plains landscapes during migration, and which habitat features or sites function as important stopover areas. This kind of information typically supports broader conservation planning, migration ecology research, and management decisions related to habitat protection or restoration, especially in regions where wetland availability and land-use patterns can strongly influence migratory bird success.
Eligibility is limited to CESU partners under the Piedmont South Atlantic Coast CESU framework, with the listing indicating "Others" and directing applicants to consult the additional eligibility text in the full announcement for clarification. The award structure is straightforward: USGS anticipates making one award, with a maximum (ceiling) of $100,000. The program is associated with CFDA number 15.808, which corresponds to USGS research and related activities. Overall, this is a single-award, partner-focused cooperative agreement designed to launch or expand an ongoing research collaboration centered on Hudsonian godwit migration stopover ecology in the Great Plains.Apply for G20AS00085
