Opportunity Information: Apply for G19AS00109
This grant opportunity, titled "Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit, Rocky Mountain CESU" (Funding Opportunity Number G19AS00109), is a discretionary funding announcement from the U.S. Department of the Interior, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). It will be issued as a cooperative agreement, which generally means USGS expects to have substantial involvement during the project period rather than simply providing pass-through funding. The funding falls under the Science and Technology and other Research and Development activity category, and it is associated with CFDA number 15.808.
The specific project focus is an effort led by USGS Science Analytics and Synthesis (SAS) called "Application of Earth Science Data Management in Research Organizations." The purpose is to support research and technical assistance related to science data management, with emphasis on practical methodologies, established and emerging practices, relevant tools, and current trends in the field. In plain terms, the project is meant to help improve how research organizations manage earth science data across the data lifecycle, which can include areas like data organization, documentation and metadata, storage and preservation, data sharing and publication, reproducibility, and alignment with community or federal requirements.
Eligibility is limited to a partner within the Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The listing shows "Others" as the eligible applicant type, but clarifies that applicants must be CESU partners as described in the opportunity's additional eligibility information. This indicates the award is not open competition to the general public or to any institution outside the CESU partnership network for that region. The intent is to leverage the CESU mechanism, which is designed to connect federal agencies with qualified university, nonprofit, tribal, or other partner organizations to conduct research and provide technical services that support natural resource science and management.
The award parameters are modest and tightly scoped. The maximum (ceiling) federal funding available is $48,000, and USGS expects to make one award. The opportunity was created on July 10, 2019, with an original closing date of July 26, 2019, indicating a short application window typical of targeted CESU partner solicitations. Because it is a single-award opportunity with a defined ceiling, proposals would likely be evaluated on how directly and efficiently they deliver usable guidance, analysis, and technical support on data management topics relevant to earth science research environments.
A key deliverable expectation is broad accessibility of the results. USGS states that all research outputs will be made available not only to federal natural resource research and management communities, but also to non-federal communities, partners, other stakeholders, and the general public. That emphasis suggests the work is intended to produce transferable products such as documented best practices, implementation guidance, assessments of tools and workflows, or syntheses of trends that can be adopted by multiple organizations rather than being tailored to a single internal system. The overall theme is capacity-building for data stewardship and management in earth science and natural resource research settings, with outputs meant to improve consistency, usability, and long-term value of scientific data.Apply for G19AS00109
