Abstract
U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) research has supported management of Hypophthalmichthys nobilis (bighead carp), Mylopharyngodon piceus (black carp), Ctenopharyngodon idella (grass carp), and H. molitrix (silver carp), hereafter referred to collectively as invasive carps, for over a decade. This strategic framework identifies thematic research areas to guide funding decisions for USGS invasive carp research during 2023–27. The USGS will use this framework and input from research and management agencies to identify leading-edge research to advance control of these highly damaging invasive species.

U.S. Geological Survey Invasive Species Research—Improving Detection, Awareness, Decision Support, and Control <p> <p> First posted November 3, 2021 <p> <p> For additional information, contact: Associate Director, Ecosystems Mission Area U.S. Geological Survey Mail Stop 300 12201 Sunrise Valley Drive Reston, VA 20192 <p> <p> Contact Pubs Warehouse https://pubs.er.usgs.gov/contact <p> <p> Abstract <p> <p> More than 6,500 nonindigenous species are now established in the United States, posing risks to human and wildlife health, native plants and animals, and our valued ecosystems. The annual environmental, economic, and health-related costs of invasive species are substantial. Invasive species can drive native species onto the endangered species list, resulting in associated regulatory costs; exacerbate the threat of wildland fire, which destroys property and threatens lives; increase the cost of delivering water and power; damage infrastructure; and degrade recreation opportunities and discourage tourism. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) works with sister agencies in the U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI) and other Federal, State, and territorial agencies, Tribes, and other stakeholders to provide information and tools needed to help solve problems posed by invasive species across the country. Key components of USGS invasive species science include developing novel prevention, forecasting, early detection, decision support, and control tools. <p>

Designed to meet the scientific needs of natural resource management agencies and to produce trained wildlife management professionals, the program has grown from the original 9 wildlife-only units to a program that today includes 42 units located on university campuses in 40 States. <p>
<p> U.S. Geological Survey Wildland Fire Science Strategic Plan, 2021–26 <p> <p> First posted February 23, 2021 <p> <p> For additional information, contact: Wildland Fire Science Program U.S Geological Survey 12201 Sunrise Valley Drive Reston, VA 20192 <p> Contact Pubs Warehouse: https://pubs.er.usgs.gov/contact <p> <p> Abstract <p> <p> The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Wildland Fire Science Strategic Plan defines critical, core fire science capabilities for understanding fire-related and fire-responsive earth system processes and patterns, and informing management decision making. Developed by USGS fire scientists and executive leadership, and informed by conversations with external stakeholders, the Strategic Plan is aligned with the needs of the fire science stakeholder community–fire, land, natural resource, and emergency managers from Federal, State, Tribal, and community organizations, as well as members of the scientific community. The Strategic Plan is composed of four integrated priorities, each with associated goals and specific strategies for accomplishing the goals: Priority 1: Produce state-of-the-art, actionable fire science; Priority 2: Engage stakeholders in science production and science delivery; Priority 3: Effectively communicate USGS fire science capacity, products, and information to a broad audience; and Priority 4: Enhance USGS organizational structure and advance support for fire science. The priorities of this Strategic Plan define the USGS’s commitment to producing and delivering cutting edge fire science, information, and decision-support tools in support of national, regional, and local priorities and stakeholder needs. <p>
