Field Day Wrap-Up
Detailed Description
A USGS boat crew (GLSC; Ann Arbor, Michigan; Chesterton, Indiana) patiently waits for the other half of the team to finish underwater tasks as part of an on-going Cladophora Project, which assesses benthic algae community abundance in nearshore areas of the Great Lakes, and observes factors associated with algal growth, including dreissenid mussels, nutrient contents, and physical conditions.
