The University of Missouri System was awarded a $208,236 Project Grant under the U.S. Geological Survey's Assistance to State Water Resources Research Institutes program (CFDA 15.805) to evaluate the use of side-scan sonar technology combined with N-mixture modeling for estimating the abundance of invasive silver carp in the Upper Mississippi Basin. The project aims to compare the cost and performance of this sonar-based approach against traditional capture methods used by USGS and other...
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...
This Project Grant award of $557,072.00 from the U.S. Geological Survey under the Assistance to State Water Resources Research Institutes program (CFDA 15.805) supports research to investigate the effects of hydrodynamic forces on invasive zebra mussel populations. The funded project, titled "Go With the Flow: Hydrodynamic Resilience to Invasive Mussels", will conduct laboratory, field, and computational studies to quantify relationships between water current, wave action,...
The University of Missouri System received a $862,200 cooperative agreement award from the United States Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service Central Program Planning Coordination and Support office to support products and services related to Missouri River Basin water resource management from July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2023. The award is being used to fund research activities under the Agricultural Research Service's Agricultural Research Basic and Applied Research program...
This $261,984 Project Grant award from the U.S. Geological Survey under the Assistance to State Water Resources Research Institutes program (CFDA 15.805) will fund a study on the behaviors of trout anglers related to the spread of aquatic invasive species in the Upper Mississippi River Basin. The primary recipient, the University of Wisconsin System, will survey anglers in Iowa, Minnesota, and Wisconsin to establish baseline data on their understanding, attitudes, beliefs, risks, and behaviors...
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (CFDA 15.608 - Fish and Aquatic Conservation - Aquatic Invasive Species) awarded a $598,000 Project Grant to the Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) to effectively guide efforts to manage and control invasive carp in the Mississippi River Basin. The grant aims to help managers understand the factors influencing invasive carp population dynamics, which is critical to informing management and control strategies. The award supports activities such as...
The University of Illinois will receive $244,636 under a Project Grant from the U.S. Geological Survey, a bureau of the Department of the Interior, to study habitat selection and predatory effects of juvenile black carp. The grant is funded through the Assistance to State Water Resources Research Institutes program (CFDA 15.805), which provides support to designated state water resources research institutes. Under this award, researchers at the University of Illinois will conduct experiments...
This federal Project Grant award from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under the Fish and Aquatic Conservation - Aquatic Invasive Species (CFDA 15.608) program provides $404,000 to Iowa State University to study the movement and behavior of invasive bighead and silver carp in the Missouri and Mississippi River basins. The objectives are to determine when and under what environmental conditions these invasive carp are moving into tributaries, how far they travel, and the conditions that lead to...
This Project Grant award, totaling $1,298,418.00, was provided by the Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service Region 3 under the Fish and Wildlife Management Assistance program (CFDA 15.608). The funding supports four research projects at Iowa State University to better understand the spread, population dynamics, and effects of invasive carp species in the Upper Mississippi and Missouri River Basins: Assessing temporal changes in hybridization between silver carp and bighead carp,...
The U.S. Geological Survey's Cooperative Research Units (CFDA 15.812) program has awarded a $169,814.15 Cooperative Agreement to Mississippi State University (MSU) to develop a conceptual framework that defines how invasive carps may impact aquatic environments and biota in the Tennessee and Cumberland Rivers. The project, titled "Bracing for the Long Term: A Conceptual Framework to Facilitate Coexistence with Invasive Carps," will run from April 1, 2024 to April 1, 2026. The...

The University of Missouri System, through its Curators of the University of Missouri, received a $434,280 Project Grant from the U.S. Geological Survey under the Assistance to State Water Resources Research Institutes program (CFDA 15.805). The grant, awarded on Jan 1, 2024, will support a 3-year research project to investigate the effects of turbulence on the swimming behavior of invasive carp larvae in large river systems. The proposed activities consist of laboratory experiments and modeling studies to enhance understanding of the physics and biology interactions, enabling better management strategies for invasive carps during their early life stages. The research will provide new data, knowledge, and a model framework to predict where and when swimming larvae recruitment will be concentrated, benefiting federal and state agencies, water resources and fisheries managers, and the general public.
