Opportunity Information: Apply for P15AS00393

The National Park Service (NPS) has announced a funding opportunity for wildlife sensory ecology research through a cooperative agreement with Colorado State University (CSU). The total anticipated award amount is $557,133, with no cost-sharing required, and the agreement is expected to run until December 31, 2017.

The project aims to investigate how wildlife responds to noise and light pollution. A postdoctoral researcher will be hired to focus specifically on the effects of artificial light at night, while undergraduate students will participate in related research through the "Listening Laboratory." This facility will facilitate data analysis and research on soundscapes, overseen by another postdoctoral researcher.

Key research goals include documenting the impacts of noise on animal behavior, exploring laboratory environments for studying these effects, and assessing noise and light exposure's impact on wildlife ecology. The overall aim is to enhance scientific understanding relevant to resource management and visitor experiences in national parks.

The NPS will actively collaborate with CSU to set research priorities, establish study parameters, and ensure the continuity of research efforts that align with both organizations' missions. Regular updates and evaluations will involve joint meetings and reporting, while also emphasizing educational opportunities for students at various academic levels.

This funding effort falls under single-source justification criteria, particularly focusing on the continuation of ongoing collaborative work, which underscores the unique qualifications of CSU for this particular research thrust.
