Evaluating Asian carp colonization potential and impact in the Great Lakes
Major Goals and Objectives
- Develop a predictive model of Asian carp consumption and growth in the Great Lakes using a bioenergetics approach
- Test model predictions with growth and consumption experiments in mesocosms
- Predict where in the Great Lakes Asian carp are likely to survive by feeding on plankton
- Provide initial estimates of the potential impact of Asian carp on Great Lake plankton communities
