The US Geological Survey is offering this grant to a CESU-affiliated partner for critical research focused on smallmouth bass population dynamics. This funding opportunity aims to understand how varying thermal and flow regimes influence these populations. The project’s primary objectives are to develop robust population models for smallmouth bass that accurately respond to changing hydrology and water temperature. These models will then be utilized to forecast the potential impacts of different reservoir operations, including their resulting hydrological and thermal regimes, on smallmouth bass populations. This grant is for advancing ecological understanding and informing water resource management.

| Description: | The US Geological Survey is offering a funding opportunity to a CESU partner for research in understanding how different thermal and flow regimes affect smallmouth bass population dynamics. The objectives of the project are to 1) develop population models for smallmouth bass that respond to changing hydrology and water temperature, and 2) use these models to forecast how different reservoir operations (and resulting hydrology and thermal regimes) may impact smallmouth bass population dynamics. |
