Get Grants for Wildlife Health Research & Management
This grant supports research and modeling to understand disease transmission in wildlife, specifically focusing on bighorn sheep in Nevada. Funding is available for projects that develop approaches to manage and limit pathogen spread between domestic and wild sheep populations.
Get Funding for Your Eco-Research Project!
Researchers and institutions can secure funding to investigate the causes and historical changes of algal blooms in high-elevation lakes. This grant supports critical ecological studies that will inform conservation efforts for vital park ecosystems.
Get Funding for Wildlife Protection Research
Non-federal partners can receive funding to study the impacts of oil and gas extraction on wildlife within National Wildlife Refuges. This research will provide crucial data for resource managers to protect natural habitats.
Get Funding for River Ecosystem Research & Forest Health
Are you a CESU partner interested in floodplain forest dynamics and invasive species management in the Upper Mississippi River? This opportunity funds research to understand and address forest decline and conversion threats.
Get Funding for Drought-Proofing Your Grasslands!
This grant is for CESU partners looking to develop advanced mapping tools for grassland forage production. You'll create systems to track drought impacts and predict future scenarios, helping you adapt your management strategies.
Get Funding for Spatial Data Infrastructure Projects!
If your business works with spatial data infrastructure development, the USGS may fund your project through a sole-source award. This opportunity focuses on advancing the nation's spatial data capabilities without a full competitive process.
Unlock Funding for Remote Sensing Research & Education!
Educational institutions, state/local governments, and non-profits can apply for funding to build a national consortium. This initiative aims to advance remote sensing for environmental monitoring, focusing on water quality, public health, and natural resource management.
Get Funding for Ecological Restoration & Management
California organizations focused on ecological research and conservation can receive funding to develop best practices for managing and restoring saltbush species in the Alkali Vernal Plain. This initiative aims to improve habitat health and support wildlife within this vital ecosystem.
Get Funding for Pacific Northwest Conservation Research
Research institutions in the Pacific Northwest can apply for funding to create a digital atlas of resilient habitats for at-risk species. This project will synthesize existing data to aid wildlife managers in conservation efforts.
Get Funding for Climate Research Projects
If you're a CESU partner, this grant is for you! Fund innovative research projects focused on climate adaptation science to address critical environmental challenges.
Get Funding for Arizona Groundwater Research
Arizona research institutions and CESU partners can apply for funding to assess groundwater resources using geochemical and hydrogeologic techniques. This research aims to improve understanding of aquifer systems and inform resource management through published findings.
Secure Funding for Sage-Grouse Conservation Projects
This opportunity is for partners of the Cooperative Ecosystems Studies Unit (CESU) Program to receive funding for applied ecological research focused on sage-grouse and sagebrush ecosystems. Projects will address wildfire impacts, predator dynamics, habitat suitability, and translocation strategies in Nevada, California, and the Great Basin.
Get Funding for Drought & Land Use Research
Are you a research institution or university? Secure funding to investigate the impacts of drought and land use on ecological communities in the Southwest. This grant supports vital research for environmental understanding and solutions.
Funded Research for Wetland Carbon Sequestration
Are you a CESU partner researching wetland microbial communities? This grant supports studies to understand soil carbon vulnerability, boosting national wetland carbon sequestration assessments.
Get Funding for Western Mountain Research & Conservation
This grant is for organizations and researchers focused on understanding and mitigating the impacts of climate change and disturbances in western mountain ecosystems, particularly within national parks. Funds will support crucial studies on soil health, alpine lakes, forest resilience, and water flow.
Secure Funding for Hawaii Seabird & Renewable Energy Research
Hawaii-based researchers and organizations are invited to apply for funding to study seabird populations and their offshore habitats. This initiative supports the state's ambitious clean energy goals by providing critical data for renewable energy development and conservation efforts.
