'It will lead to a catastrophe:' U.S. federal job cuts will harm the Great Lakes, Canadian scientists say | CBC News The U.S. Department of Government Efficiency cut hundreds of employees at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) last week, including technicians who work with Canadian scientists ...

I do not think most people in Canada realize the implications of cutting science funding in the USA. But the Great Lakes are shared waters- and as such we will share the cost of missing important information to keep water safe.

Cool. Looking into something similar for lab/field use. Curious if anyone else has experience too!

#lakeerie water/sediment going for a spin. Weโ€™re looking to see how, where and to what extent #sediments contribute internal nutrient loads to the lake. #greatlakes #eccc #scienceisfun was

Going through data and pictures from this years field season on #lakeerie. Canโ€™t beat a nice day on the #greatlakes. Studying the mechanisms of internal nutrient loading particularly focused on the #sediment water interface. Pub to comeโ€ฆ #science
