The US Geological Survey is offering a grant through the Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit, Great Rivers CESU for research on optimizing fluorescent properties of oil to detect oil using a Complementary Metal Oxide Sensor. The research aims to enhance environmental sample characterization, develop detection methods based on lab-derived relationships, and create predictive models for oil concentration using fluorescence-based optical properties. Deadline for submissions is July 25, 2018.
