This department is offering the Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit, Chesapeake Watershed CESU grant to address a national-level science problem related to pollination and pesticide impacts. The project requires collaboration with external technology partners to develop innovative tools for detecting sublethal changes in animals and pollinators. The grant aims to demonstrate the effectiveness of sustained-release chemical delivery devices by measuring biomarker responses. By focusing on individual animal conditions, the project aims to contribute to ecosystem health assessment and align USGS interests with national priorities.

| Description: | national-level science problem with novel methods. The expertise and contributions of external technology partners is required for this scientific pursuit which is aligning USGS interests with recently recognized national priorities with regard to pollination, thus representing a significant opportunity for growth. The application of innovative tools is needed for addressing this important issue of the detection of sublethal changes in animals and pollinators to the increasingly available pesticide class which is the fastest growing class globally (Gibbons et al., 2014). This proof-of-concept project will demonstrate effectiveness of a sustained-release chemical delivery device, as evidenced by measuring sub-lethal biomarker responses at the cell and molecular level. These data help to shed light on individual animal condition, whereby ecosystem health is reflected by the health of its animals. |
