Description: The Wetland and Aquatic Research Center (WARC) of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is offering a funding opportunity to a University CESU partner for research in radar ornithology. Specifically, there is a need to determine or predict stopover densities as detected by weather surveillance radar (WSR) in relation to land use and severe weather events. This opportunity will provide an avenue for assisting the USGS WARC with the development of spatially explicit decision support tools that can address fundamental needs of USGS management partners for current and future habitat acquisition, restoration, and conservations efforts targeted at migratory landbirds.
