Abstract:

The Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory (GLERL), located in Ann Arbor, Michigan, is a U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC) facility operated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR), through the NOAA Environmental Research Laboratories (ERL).

          GLERL's mission is to conduct integrated, interdisciplinary environmental research in support of resource management and environmental services in coastal and estuarine water, with special emphasis on the Great Lakes. GLERL's research provides Federal, State, and international decision and policy makers with scientific understanding of:
        • The sources, pathways, fates, and effects of toxicants in the Great Lakes.
        • Natural hazards such as severe waves, storm surges, and ice.
        • Ecosystems and their interactions, including the implications of invasion by nuisance species, for example, zebra mussels.
        • The hydrology and water levels of the Great Lakes.
        • Regional effects related to global climate change.
