Key activities include: Monitoring to determine the...

This $197,717 Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Geological Survey under the Research and Data Collection program (CFDA 15.808) supports research on invasive carp management strategies. The University of Missouri System, as the prime awardee, will collaboratively develop adaptive frameworks with stakeholders to prevent Prussian carp invasion into U.S. waters, evaluate management actions for controlling invasive carp populations in the Illinois River and expansion into Lake Michigan, and assess the likelihood of invasive carp control and deterrent efforts in the Tennessee River, Cumberland River, and Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway. The project will provide models, reports, publications, and spatial data to state and federal resource management agencies like the Montana Fish, Wildlife, and Parks, Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to inform their invasive carp prevention strategies.
