Opportunity Information: Apply for G25AS00237
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), through its John Wesley Powell Center for Analysis and Synthesis, is offering a discretionary cooperative agreement opportunity to support a research project titled "A global synthesis of flood impacts: Understanding the country-level vulnerability and causes." The central aim is to produce the first broad, integrated synthesis of how flood impacts differ around the world, with a particular focus on how those impacts vary across demographic groups and how they relate to differences in flood exposure, existing protection, and investment in protective infrastructure. In practical terms, the project is meant to move beyond isolated case studies by building a consistent global picture of who is affected by floods, in what ways, and under what conditions.
A major piece of the work involves gathering and harmonizing data to create an aggregated global flood impact database. That database is expected to pull together information on flood impacts across countries and regions so the research team can compare patterns and drivers in a systematic way. Alongside the database, the project will develop a sector-specific definitional framework for floods, meaning it will clarify how "flood impacts" should be defined and categorized depending on the sector being studied. This is important because the consequences of flooding can look very different across domains such as urban systems, transportation networks, agriculture, and power systems, and inconsistent definitions often make global comparisons difficult. With clearer definitions and an assembled dataset, the study will then synthesize how impacts and risks vary by sector and by demographic characteristics such as poverty, race, and human development, while also considering how levels of flood protection and related investments shape outcomes.
This opportunity is issued under the Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) Program, which is structured around partnerships designed to deliver research, technical assistance, and education. Because it is a CESU-funded award, eligibility is limited: applicants must already be participating partners in the North Atlantic Coast CESU network. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that USGS expects to have substantial involvement during the period of performance compared with a standard grant, often through collaboration, coordination, or shared responsibilities tied to project execution and deliverables.
Key administrative details from the notice include the opportunity title "Cooperative Agreement for affiliated Partner with North Atlantic Coast Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU)" and the funding opportunity number G25AS00237. The agency is the Geological Survey, the assistance listing (CFDA) number is 15.808, and the activity category is Science and Technology and other Research and Development. The award ceiling is listed as $100,000, with the original closing date of February 17, 2025, and the opportunity creation date of January 16, 2025. The notice does not specify an exact number of expected awards in the provided text, but it frames the effort as a targeted research award to a qualified CESU partner to carry out the global flood impacts synthesis work.Apply for G25AS00237
