Opportunity Information: Apply for G22AS00381
This opportunity is a US Geological Survey (USGS) cooperative agreement aimed at advancing the science needed to better predict hurricane-driven coastal impacts. The project focus is the development and improvement of a coupled ocean and wave modeling system that can simulate how extreme events, especially hurricanes, affect the US East Coast and the Gulf of Mexico. The underlying problem the program is trying to solve is that hurricanes create complex, interacting hazards in coastal zones: storm-driven ocean currents and elevated water levels occur at the same time as intense waves that evolve as they move toward shore. Accurate forecasts depend on representing not only each process on its own, but also the feedbacks between them.
A central theme of the grant is model coupling: linking an ocean circulation and water-level model with a wave model in a way that allows two-way interaction. Ocean currents and water levels influence waves by changing how waves propagate, refract, shoal, and dissipate, particularly in shallow coastal waters where the seafloor and coastline strongly shape wave behavior. At the same time, waves influence currents and water levels through mechanisms like wave-driven momentum transfer and changes in nearshore circulation, which can modify storm surge patterns and coastal flooding dynamics. The opportunity highlights that including these combined effects is necessary to improve the accuracy of extreme-event forecasts, which in turn supports better preparedness and decision-making for coastal communities and resource managers.
Funding is offered under the Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) framework, specifically tied to the North Atlantic Coast CESU. CESUs are structured partnerships designed to connect federal agencies with academic and other research partners to deliver applied science, technical assistance, and education. Because this award is issued through the CESU Program, eligibility is limited: applicants must already be participating partners within the North Atlantic Coast CESU network. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates substantial involvement by the federal agency during the project, such as collaboration on technical direction, coordination, or joint development work, rather than a more hands-off grant model.
From the source details, this is a discretionary funding opportunity in the Science and Technology and other Research and Development category (CFDA 15.808). The opportunity number is G22AS00381, and it was created on May 31, 2022, with an original closing date of July 1, 2022. The award ceiling is listed as $350,000. The notice anticipates making an award (the expected awards field is present but not quantified in the provided text), and the sponsoring agency is the USGS.
In practical terms, a strong project under this announcement would be expected to contribute research and development that makes coupled ocean-wave simulations more reliable for hurricane conditions, especially in the coastal zone where waves, surge, and currents interact most strongly. The intended outcome is an improved modeling capability that can better represent the physical processes driving coastal impacts during hurricanes, ultimately strengthening forecasts for hazard assessment and response planning along highly vulnerable US coastlines.Apply for G22AS00381
