Boosting for our partners! The University of Michigan Water Center is facilitating a #GreatLakes horizon scan:
take this brief survey to help identify emerging water-related opportunities and risks in the Great Lakes watershed and better prepare for what’s ahead. umich.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...
Clearly, there is interest in small frogs and toads here! You might also like this fact sheet from my colleagues at @msue-lakes-streams.bsky.social about what you can do to protect them: www.canr.msu.edu/resources/sm...
I’m presenting a poster on the new social science hub at #IAGLR26! My graduate work was based on secondary analysis of #GreatLakes social science data, so I know exactly how valuable it is. Got some you wanna share? Drop me a line!
Congrats to #CIGLR’s Staff Award recipients & runners-up for outstanding contributions to Research Excellence, Community & Science for Society across CIGLR & #GreatLakes science! 🌊👏 ciglr.seas.umich.edu/awards-and-r...

Better understanding the potentially toxic components of a harmful algal bloom might prepare water managers to protect the public, researchers said.
Abstract. Toxic cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cyanoHABs) threaten freshwater resources globally and are intensifying with increasing eutrophication.

Another new resource is the #GLANSIS social science data hub, a repository of project results, final reports, and anonymized datasets on #GreatLakes social science projects available for secondary analysis. We're always looking for more data to add! www.glerl.noaa.gov/glansis/soci...
