Research and Funding Research Projects
Alteration of nutrient cycling and food web structure by profundal quagga mussels in Lake Michigan
Major Goals and Objectives
- Quantify the flux of carbon and phosphorus through the profundal quagga mussel community
- Determine the effect of these mussel-mediated fluxes on ecosystem-scale nutrient dynamics and energy flow
Accomplishments / Benefits
Publication: Observations of turbulence and mean flow in the low-energy hypolimnetic boundary layer of a large lake
