The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Great Lakes Science Center is offering this cooperative agreement to a CESU-affiliated partner. This grant is for the purpose of conducting a vital research project focused on larval and juvenile lake whitefish in Lake Huron’s nearshore areas. The primary objective is to sample these early life stages to gain a deeper understanding of larval density and the availability of food resources during their critical developmental phases. This research is crucial for assessing the health and survival of lake whitefish populations, which are significant to the Great Lakes ecosystem. By shedding light on the factors influencing the survival of young whitefish, the project aims to contribute valuable data for improved fisheries management and conservation strategies within the Great Lakes region.
