Grant Description

U.S. Geological Surveyкs (USGS) Great Lakes Science Center is offering a funding opportunity for research on Assessing impacts of harmful algal blooms and habitat restoration on fisheries in Lakes Erie and Huron. This research will advance the understanding of fish use of habitats in the system and how habitat has been degraded, both of which are critical information needs for the development of strategies to repair, rehabilitate, and restore functional fish spawning and nursery habitat in the Huron-Erie Corridor, Saginaw Bay watershed, and other degraded systems.
