Opportunity Information: Apply for G24AS00386
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), through its Northern Rocky Mountain Science Center (NOROCK), is offering a discretionary funding opportunity to support research on at-risk amphibians across the western United States. The project is designed to improve understanding of where vulnerable amphibian species currently occur, how abundant they are in different areas, and what factors are driving declines or limiting their distribution. A central goal is to generate practical, field-based information that land and wildlife managers can use to prioritize conservation actions and respond to emerging threats.
The proposed work focuses on evaluating major, well-documented stressors affecting amphibians in the West. These include drought and changing water availability, the presence and impacts of non-native predators, habitat loss or habitat transformation, broader environmental degradation, and disease-causing pathogens. The intent is to connect these threats to on-the-ground patterns in amphibian distribution and population status, helping clarify which stressors are most influential in particular regions or for particular species. Because amphibians are sensitive to water conditions, temperature, contaminants, and disease, this type of research can also serve as an early warning system for ecosystem health more broadly.
Field activities will take place across multiple western regions, specifically the Northwest, Southwest, Rocky Mountains, and Great Plains. Work is expected to occur primarily on public lands managed by major federal agencies, including the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), and U.S. Forest Service (USFS). The amphibian species addressed will include many that are priority concerns for the Department of the Interior and other partner agencies and stakeholders, meaning the study is aimed at species with heightened management interest due to conservation status, declining trends, or sensitivity to rapidly changing conditions.
This award is being issued as a Cooperative Agreement under the Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) Program. In practice, that means the project is expected to involve substantial collaboration between the federal sponsor and the recipient, with shared input, coordination, and potentially joint participation in aspects of the work. CESUs are structured partnerships intended to link federal agencies with universities, tribal entities, nonprofits, and other organizations to deliver research, technical assistance, and education that support natural and cultural resource management.
Eligibility is limited to organizations that are officially participating partners in the Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit. The opportunity is listed under CFDA 15.808 and is categorized under Science and Technology and other Research and Development. The opportunity number is G24AS00386. The posting indicates an award ceiling of $216,339, with the closing date shown as July 29, 2024, and a creation date of June 6, 2024.Apply for G24AS00386
