- This $153,852 Federal Formula Grant award from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's State Wildlife Grants (CFDA 15.634) program will fund a project by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) to identify and characterize southern flounder spawning grounds and associated habitat parameters in Texas using satellite telemetry. The project directly addresses a priority research need identified in Texas' State Wildlife Action Plan for the southern flounder, a species of greatest conservation...
- The U.S. Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service awarded a $153,816 Formula Grant under the State Wildlife Grants (CFDA 15.634) program to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD). The purpose of the grant is to update predictive models that characterize the spatial distribution and abundance patterns of the southern flounder, a species of greatest conservation need, in Texas estuaries. The project leverages TPWD's long-term fishery-independent data, such as bag seine and...
- The U.S. Department of the Interior's Fish and Wildlife Service awarded a $153,902 Formula Grant under the State Wildlife Grants (CFDA 15.634) program to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD). The purpose of this 2-year project is to estimate southern flounder fall spawning migration probability and timing in the Laguna Madre using acoustic telemetry. This research directly addresses a priority of the State Wildlife Grants program to study southern flounder movements and survival in...
- This federal Formula Grant award from the U.S. Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service (CFDA 15.634 - State Wildlife Grants) provides $153,350 to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) to conduct research on reducing malpigmentation rates in hatchery-raised southern flounder. The goal is to establish the relationship between lighting intensity and malpigmentation in juvenile southern flounder, enabling TPWD hatcheries to optimize lighting to balance malpigmentation reduction...
- The Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service Region 2 awarded a $136,057 Formula Grant to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department under the State Wildlife Grants program (CFDA 15.634) for the period of January 1, 2023 through June 30, 2025. The grant funding will support projects to identify dioxin accumulation and larval mortality in coastal hatcheries, evaluate the effectiveness of carbon filters in removing dioxins, and identify appropriate changes to water management and...
- This $153,865 Formula Grant was awarded on January 1, 2025 by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under the State Wildlife Grants (CFDA 15.634) program. The purpose of the project is to provide new information on the ecology of juvenile Atlantic tarpon and snook species occurring in nursery habitats along the Texas coast. The grant will fund standardized bimonthly field sampling, mark-recapture tagging, and validation of citizen science reports to characterize the seasonal residency, habitat use,...
- The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) was awarded a $153,840 Formula Grant from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's State Wildlife Grants (CFDA 15.634) program. The grant, awarded on November 1, 2025, will fund the development of an epigenetic clock to assess the age of southern flounder, a species of greatest conservation need in Texas. The project aims to build a non-invasive, non-lethal alternative to traditional otolith-based aging techniques for this economically and...
- This $151,725 Federal Formula Grant awarded by the U.S. Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service (CFDA 15.634 - State Wildlife Grants Program) supports a project by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) to study the habitat requirements and population dynamics of the common snook, an ecologically and economically important fish species in Texas. The project will analyze archived otolith (ear bone) samples to understand the snook's lifetime movements across salinity gradients...
- The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service awarded a $153,845 Formula Grant under the State Wildlife Grants (CFDA 15.634) program to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. The purpose of this 18-month project is to conduct a multi-gear assessment of the fish community at the Corpus Christi Nearshore Reef in Texas to determine how the fish community has changed in the 10 years since the last standardized monitoring was conducted. The assessment will use small fish traps, vertical line, and baited...
- This $6,672,821 Formula Grant award from the U.S. Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service (CFDA 15.605 - Sport Fish Restoration) supports the collection of long-term standardized fishery data necessary to monitor and manage marine fisheries resources along the 367-mile Texas coastline, including inshore bays, estuaries, and territorial sea waters. The data will be entered into a 40+ year database and used to determine and monitor trends in the relative abundance and landings of...
