The USGS is offering a funding opportunity to a CESU partner for research in a novel biosurveillance approach based on modeling first records of non-native species. Quickly locating new populations of non-native species can reduce the ecological and economic costs of species invasions.

This project will implement EDRR to test whether models of f...
