Cooperative Agreement for CESU-affiliated Partner with Great Lakes- Northern Forest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit

The US Geological Survey is offering a funding opportunity to a CESU partner for research in understanding how different thermal and flow regimes affect population dynamics of warmwater fishes that are native to Mississippi basin and non-native invaders in the Colorado River basin including walleye, smallmouth bass and green sunfish. The objectives of the project are to 1) develop population models for these species that respond to changing hydrology and water temperature, and 2) use these models to forecast how different reservo...
