Opportunity Information: Apply for G25AS00345
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is offering a cooperative agreement exclusively to members of the Great Rivers Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) for research on Black Carp, an invasive species in the Mississippi River Basin. Originally introduced to the U.S. in the 1980s for snail control in aquaculture, Black Carp have escaped into the wild and are now reproducing in key river systems. Their growing presence raises major concerns due to their threat to native mussel and snail populations, and the risk of spreading into the Great Lakes.
The goal of this research is to better understand the habitats favored by Black Carp within the upper Mississippi and Illinois rivers. By identifying these habitats, agencies can improve the efficiency of monitoring and removal efforts, focusing resources where the fish are most likely to be found. To accomplish this, the project will combine data from commercial catches, scientific captures near the Mel Price Lock and Dam, and active telemetry data with geospatial analysis.
The two main research objectives are: (1) to develop an analytical method that synthesizes multiple datasets to identify potential Black Carp habitats, and (2) to predict likely areas of habitat within the study region to guide targeted management actions.
Only current partners of the Great Rivers CESU program are eligible to apply.Apply for G25AS00345
