The grant from the U.S. Geological Survey’s (USGS) Great Lakes Science Center focuses on assessing the impacts of harmful algal blooms and habitat restoration efforts on fisheries in Lakes Erie and Huron. This research is vital for advancing the understanding of how fish utilize existing habitats and the extent of habitat degradation within these crucial aquatic systems. The findings will provide critical information necessary for developing effective strategies to repair, rehabilitate, and restore functional fish spawning and nursery habitats. Specific areas of interest include the Huron-Erie Corridor, the Saginaw Bay watershed, and other similarly degraded systems, aiming to support the long-term health and sustainability of Great Lakes fisheries.
