This USGS cooperative agreement is for a CESU-affiliated partner to research forecasting the risk of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) in North American poultry. Migratory birds can globally disperse disease-causing viruses. This grant aims to develop dynamic models of avian migration to predict, in real-time, the relative risk of foreign-origin avian influenza introductions from Asia to North America. The project will synthesize information on avian influenza in wild birds and migratory movement data to forecast HPAI introduction risk to domestic poultry. The ultimate goal is to inform management agencies and domestic poultry operations about when and where viral occurrence probabilities are highest in poultry-producing regions.

| Description: | The USGS is offering a funding opportunity to a CESU partner for research in forecasting risk of goose Guangdong highly pathogenic avian influenza to poultry production in North America.
Through migrational processes, birds have the potential to globally disperse disease-causing viruses. Dynamic models of avian migration hold the potential to predict in real-time the relative risk of introduction of foreign-origin avian influenza from Asia to North America, informing management agencies and domestic poultry operations about times and locations where risk may be greatest. This project will synthesize and extend information on avian influenza in wild birds and movement data for migratory species to forecast the relative risk of highly pathogenic avian influenza introductions to domestic poultry by estimating the place- and time-specific probabilities of viral occurrence in wild birds occupying poultry-producing regions of the U.S. |
