Cooperative Ecoystem Studies Unit, Great Lakes Northern Forests CESU

 

The USGS is offering a funding opportunity to a CESU partner to conduct research on modeling nutrient dynamics in Lake Ontario�s nearshore waters of New York from the Niagara River to the Genesee Embayment to provide a better understand of factors that have led to increased nuisance algae and related water-quality problems in the nearshore. This research should expand on nearshore work conducted in 2008 and 2013 in support of the US and Canadian Lake Ontario Lakewide Management Plan (LaMP) efforts to develop a better understanding of the connection between tributary nutrient inputs and nearshore water quality. Ideally the work of the CESU partner will complement the EPA Annex 4 goals and the Lake Ontario LAMP�s nearshore monitoring and research efforts in this.
