Opportunity Information: Apply for G22AS00151
This grant opportunity is a US Geological Survey (USGS) cooperative agreement aimed at supporting a South Florida Caribbean Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) partner to study how Burmese pythons are affecting mammal communities in the Greater Everglades. The work is framed around understanding mammal community dynamics in places that are clearly impacted by python predation as well as areas that may appear unimpacted, with an emphasis on using modern, high-end monitoring and modeling approaches. The USGS offices most directly tied to the effort are the Greater Everglades Priority Ecosystems Science center in Davie, Florida and the Wetland and Aquatic Research Center in Gainesville, Florida, reflecting that the project is meant to contribute directly to ongoing Everglades science and restoration priorities.
The core purpose of the funding is to generate research and technical assistance that helps clarify the ecological consequences of Burmese python presence, especially the pressure they place on native mammals through predation. By focusing on both impacted and seemingly unimpacted locations, the opportunity signals interest not only in documenting declines where pythons are established, but also in detecting early warning signs, hidden impacts, or differences tied to habitat, hydrology, or other environmental factors. The mention of "cutting-edge monitoring and modeling tools" suggests USGS is looking for proposals that go beyond basic surveys, potentially incorporating advanced field detection methods, quantitative community analyses, spatial modeling, and other approaches that can measure change over time and link patterns to python presence and broader ecosystem conditions.
This work sits inside USGS broader mission in South Florida: conducting ecological and hydrologic research and monitoring that supports Greater Everglades restoration in partnership with federal, state, and local entities. The output is expected to be actionable science that feeds into restoration decision-making and adaptive management, meaning the research should be designed with practical management relevance in mind, such as improving understanding of ecosystem resilience, identifying vulnerable species or communities, and informing where and how restoration actions or invasive species management might have the biggest effect. In other words, the award is not just for academic interest; it is intended to produce information that can be used during long-term restoration projects to evaluate outcomes and adjust strategies as conditions change.
Administratively, the opportunity is issued as a discretionary cooperative agreement under the CESU Program, which is specifically designed to connect federal agencies with partner institutions for research, technical assistance, and education. Eligibility is limited to organizations that are already participating partners in the South Florida Caribbean CESU, and the activity category is listed as Science and Technology and other Research and Development. The funding opportunity number is G22AS00151, the CFDA number is 15.808, and the listed award ceiling is $499,999. The original closing date for applications was January 11, 2022, and the notice was created on January 7, 2022, indicating a short submission window typical of targeted cooperative agreement announcements aimed at a defined partner community.Apply for G22AS00151
