Congratulations to Tyler Harrow-Lyle on receiving the 2025 JGLR/Elsevier Early Career Scientist Award! Recognized for leading the development of the first binational dreissenid mussel biomass map for Lake Erie—an important contribution to Great Lakes science.

Checking PAR sensors before they go into Lake Ontario. While we can't bring the sun indoors, the tunable light source in @AlgaeBurger lab is a great stand in. 6 down, only 10 more to go....

Finally getting around to cleaning up some particulate P samples from the #GrandRiver to explore oxygen isotope signatures in different fractions

GLC joined @CIGLR_UM's Summit on Disturbance Ecology: effects on #GreatLakes #HABs and Phycology hosted at @stonelab. Our @GLHABsCollab helped to facilitate this meeting of researchers and managers focused on harmful algal blooms and community ecology.

#WinterLimnology is cool! Last weekend, my #IceDiving collaborators practised installing my sympagic enclosures on the #LakeIce bottom in #GreatLakes #LakeHuron. They even edited in some inspirational "underwatery" music.

Here is one of many at @LakeErieNorth, and another by @LakeSuperior marching for science, and sharing the @NatGeo article his human dad was in. He's really an ambassador for all lakes - and lake sceince

If you love plants and water, you’re in for a treat on this Valentine's day! My #PhD paper with @Water_Rox is out in @GlobalChangeBio! We looked at global trends and drivers of submerged #macrophyte quantities in lakes. @GRIL_Limnologie @NSERC_CRSNG doi.org/10.1111/gcb.16619

If you ever wondered how much light penetrates through #LakeIce and snow, this is our “unmodified snowpack” site, inside a black ice fishing shelter. The light is what has passed through the ice and reflected. The productivity array is clearly visible 2m down. #WinterLimnology

It's time to start looking at broader phytoplankton community dynamics if we want to effectively manage freshwater cHABs. @ctfilstrup @depew_d16 @Milk_in_a_bag_ @microbesheik @Limnoguy and #NoTwitter Doug Haffner Check out our new opinion paper here : doi.org/10.1111/fwb.14019

Paradox versus paradigm: A disconnect between understanding and management of freshwater cyanobac...

Freshwater cyanobacterial harmful algae blooms (cHABs) are a major threat to human and environmental health and are increasing globally in frequency and severity. To manage this threat in a timely...

We're very excited to share our latest research on how invasive dreissenid mussels modify nutrient cycling under natural conditions on the lake bottom in the #GreatLakes. Pre-proof in @STOTEN_journal: doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.… #InvasiveSpecies

Day 1 of the #30DayChartChallenge 📅 Part-to-Whole! Parts of the whole lake phytoplankton community using @EPAWater NLA 2017 data. Part-to-whole comparison from phytoplankton to fatty acids in 3 parts by Michael Meyer #DataViz #rstats: github.com/USGS-VIZLAB/chart… 1/3
A panel of replicate maps that each show the spatial distribution of lake algal communities across the US. Blue-green algae and green algae are in highest density in the SE US. Cryptophytes, diatoms, and golden algae show a similar but weaker spatial pattern. Dinoflagellates, Euglenoids and yellow-green algae are the least common across lake communities.
