It was an adventure for my #Science staff out sampling off the 🇨🇦 #Canadian Coast Guard Ship, Samuel Risley icebreaker last week on Lake Huron. Ice everywhere for sampling water properties, chemistry, phytoplankton and zooplankton during the binational #GreatLakes #WinterGrab. Many lessons learned about the difficulties of ship-based winter #limnology, including frozen sensors and some damaged equipment. However, it was a success due to the support of the crew. #BravoZulu

Great Lakes Marsh Monitoring Program: Things are Getting Really Interesting!
What’s the importance of muskrats for marsh birds? Find out in the new issue of “Marsh Monitor”. With the program celebrating their 30th anniversary, the team speaks to the value of having data span so many years. In their words “things are getting really interesting”

“(The) Great Lakes is losing ice over the long term,” said Ayumi Fujisaki-Manome, associate research scientist for the Cooperative Institute for Great Lakes Research at the University of Michigan. “We still get high ice in some years, even recently, but if we draw a trend line over the long-term, we do see a decreasing trend.”

“I love this lighthouse. Not only is it perched on a stunning 130- foot cliff, but the buildings themselves are just iconic. I don’t think there is a single bad view of this lighthouse.” - Nicholas Narog

Uhm... #introduction

Nothing really to say about me as a person, I have crippling #anxiety & so no life/accomplishments to speak of. Here are some of my interests, I'm an expert on none.

Our primary #DFOscience research vessel for the #GreatLakesLaboratory, the CCGS Limnos, left this afternoon for an 8 day research and monitoring mission to support the #GreatLakes 🇨🇦🇺🇸 Cooperative Science and Monitoring Initiative #CSMI field year for #LakeOntario. This spring cruise is in collaboration with Environment and Climate Change Canada #ECCC, and we are collecting chemical, biological, and contaminants samples for many partners, including #EPA, #Cornell, and others. #plankton
