Opportunity Information: Apply for G20AS00027
The Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit, Great Rivers CESU grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number G20AS00027) is a U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) discretionary funding solicitation issued under the Department of the Interior. It is offered as a cooperative agreement, meaning the selected recipient is expected to work closely with USGS staff rather than operating entirely independently. The program sits within the Science and Technology and other Research and Development activity category (CFDA 15.808). The opportunity was created on January 13, 2020, and originally closed on February 3, 2020. USGS anticipated making one award, with a maximum funding amount (award ceiling) of $40,137.
The core purpose of the project is to build and operationalize a centralized database system, paired with a web-based user interface and a sustainable update workflow, to host all USGS-generated geochronological data. In practical terms, USGS is seeking a CESU partner to help move geochronology results (age determinations and the supporting analytical information) into a structured, standardized, and routinely updated environment so that the information does not remain fragmented across files, legacy systems, or scattered repositories. A major emphasis is on timely public availability: the project is meant to ensure that USGS age data become accessible to key stakeholders, scientists, and the general public as soon as those data are released.
A central technical objective identified as Research Objective #191 focuses on automation. Specifically, the project calls for the development of automated tools, described as browser-based plug-ins, that can extract relevant information from existing USGS geochronologic data hosted on ScienceBase. The extracted content is expected to include mass spectrometer outputs, location information, and other essential metadata associated with geochronology analyses. After extraction, these tools should "schematize" the information, meaning they must translate and map the raw and semi-structured source content into the standardized fields and relationships required by the new database. The workflow also needs to support interoperability with Geochron.org, indicating that outputs should be formatted and organized in ways that align with external geochronology community standards and/or submission structures, enabling data to be integrated or mirrored beyond USGS systems.
Eligibility is limited to CESU partners under the Great Rivers CESU arrangement, as indicated by the listing of eligible applicants as "Others" with additional eligibility details referenced in the full notice. Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a targeted data infrastructure and tooling effort: it combines database development, web interface considerations, and repeatable data-ingestion automation to improve how USGS geochronological data are standardized, updated, and disseminated to both specialized users and the public.Apply for G20AS00027
