The USGS offers a grant through CESU for collaborative research on developing a decision model to reduce eel mortality in hydroelectric dams. Conducted on the Shenandoah River, the project focuses on finding optimal turbine operation rules. The CESU partner will contribute to predictive modeling and dynamic optimization of the decision model. Deadline for application: May 16, 2014.
