This grant, offered by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Great Lakes Science Center, is for conducting vital research on ‘Great Lakes Connecting Channels Ecology.’ The purpose of this cooperative agreement is to generate critical insights into the environmental and biological conditions of the Great Lakes Connecting Channels (GLCC). This includes key waterways such as the St. Marys, St. Clair, Detroit, Niagara, and St. Lawrence Rivers, along with their adjacent areas. The information gathered through this research is indispensable for effective management of conditions across the entire Great Lakes Basin and for the sustainable stewardship of its significant recreational and commercial fisheries.
