The USGS Alaska Science Center is offering a grant opportunity to a Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) partner. This funding is dedicated to vital research investigating seasonal variations in avian malaria and influenza infections among high-latitude-wintering mallard populations. The study will also assess the seroprevalence of these diseases and explore the relationships between the timing of viral shedding and the duration of antibody presence after infection. This research is crucial given that waterfowl, including mallards, serve as a primary natural reservoir for avian influenza A virus, making comprehensive understanding of disease dynamics in these populations essential for ecosystem health and wildlife management.
