The US Geological Survey is offering a funding opportunity to a CESU partner for research in working with DOI management agencies whose trust resources are impacted by ticks or tick-borne diseases to:
1) use decision analysis to frame and evaluate management decision problems and help natural resource,
agricultural and public health agencies navigate difficult tradeoffs and uncertainty, 2) provide a generalizable framework that may be useful to direct future surveillance, research, and management activities on ticks and tick-borne diseases.
