The US Geological Survey, Northern Rocky Mountain Science Center (NOROCK) is offering this grant opportunity to conduct a state-wide analysis of Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) in elk and mule deer across Wyoming. This grant is for the purpose of developing a robust statistical model of CWD that will help assess the correlation between affected species, account for evolving sampling methods over time, and estimate the influence of habitat on the disease’s growth and spread. The primary objective is to construct a comprehensive statistical model for CWD in Wyoming, accurately accounting for the sampling process and estimating correlations across various regions, timeframes, and host species at the hunt area scale. This research aims to provide critical insights into CWD dynamics.

| Description: | The US Geological Survey, Northern Rocky Mountain Science Center (NOROCK), is offering a funding opportunity to conduct a state-wide analysis for Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) in elk and mule deer. Developing a statistical model of CWD in elk and mule deer will assist in 1) assessing the correlation between species; 2) account for changes in the sampling regime over time; and 3) estimate the effects of habitat on the growth and spread of CWD. The objective will be to construct a statistical model of CWD across Wyoming that accounts for sampling process and estimates the correlation across regions, time and host species at the hunt area scale. |
