Scope: GLERL NOAA
Changing water levels can have both positive and negative impacts on
water-dependent industries such as shipping, fisheries, tourism, and coastal
infrastructure. GLERL research analyzes components of the Great Lakes water
cycle to improve models, which are used by agencies and industry to plan for
water management and operations. GLERL vessels provide safe and capable
multi-disciplinary platforms to study the Great Lakes by deploying instruments,
collecting samples, conducting surveys, and supporting autonomous/uncrewed
systems and remote observation stations. Research using satellite images, remote
sensing, buoys, a comprehensive monitoring program in Lake Erie, Saginaw Bay,
and Lake Huron, and advanced genetic techniques helps to understand the long and
short-term seasonal dynamics of HABs and hypoxia. Research on invasive species
focuses on understanding how these species impact the Great Lakes ecosystem and
interact with other stressors, which informs management decisions that support
coastal infrastructure, water dependent industries, fisheries, and recreation.
GLERL and partners develop, test, evaluate and implement emerging technology
advancements in data collection, striving to improve NOAA’s observational
capabilities to better understand ecosystem processes.

NOAA GLERL and its partners conduct innovative research on the dynamic
environments and ecosystems of the Great Lakes and coastal regions to provide
information for resource use and management decisions that lead to safe and
sustainable ecosystems, ecosystem services, and human communities.


RESEARCH PROGRAMS

Ecosystem Dynamics: Collects ecological data and conducts experimental research
on the ecosystem processes of the Great Lakes. Integrated Physical and
Ecological Modeling and Forecasting: Conducts research to predict the effects of
changes on the Great Lakes system. Observing Systems and Advanced Technology:
