The United States Geological Survey (USGS) is offering a funding opportunity to a Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) partner. This grant is designed to support critical research focused on the natal environments of fish species inhabiting the Upper Mississippi and Illinois rivers. The primary objective is to utilize otolith microchemistry techniques to gain detailed insights into where these fish originated and spent their early lives. This research aims to enhance understanding of fish population dynamics and habitat connectivity within these significant river systems, providing valuable data for ecosystem management and conservation efforts. The initiative seeks to advance scientific knowledge crucial for maintaining healthy aquatic ecosystems.
