Sampling in the Oswego Harbor
A USGS research crew (GLSC; Oswego, New York) sampling environmental DNA (eDNA) aboard the R/V Niagara in Oswego Harbor, New York. The eDNA will inform cisco spawning dynamics in bays along Lake Ontario and is associated with the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative’s coregonine spawning habitat projects.
