## Who can apply

- Others (see text field entitled "Additional Information on Eligibility" for clarification)

This financial assistance opportunity is being issued under a Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) Program. CESU’s are partnerships that provide research, technical assistance, and education. Eligible recipients must be participating partners of the Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit Program.

## What the grant funds

U.S. Geological Survey’s (USGS) Powell Center is offering a funding opportunity for research on “Standardizing, aggregating, analyzing and disseminating global wildlife genetic and genomic data for improved management and advancement of community best practices.” The project will build a genetic database of ~150 global datasets and their metadata. Researchers will correlate genetic and genomic data with historical climatic stability, species richness, and anthropogenic factors to improve understanding of the spatio-environmental distribution of genetic diversity, and to forecast if regions or populations are likely to harbor high genetic diversity. The database will be used to create spatiotemporal maps of measured genetic diversity across species of value to conservation planning and environmental impact assessments by natural resource managers.
