Description
- Activities
- The central objective of this study is to observe the effect of ICE coveron mean currents, wave-induced currents, and bottom stress at one or two spawning reefs during awide variety of environmental conditions. Each winter, we will deploy two turbulence mooringson the reef and an environmental mooring in slightly deeper water offshore of the reef. Themoorings will be relocated for the second field year to provide data at a reef with a different depth, shape, and hydrodynamic environment (wave fetch, etc.). As the seasons evolve, the moorings willsample turbulence during a range of ICE, icefree, windy, and calm conditions.deliverables and expected outcomes: results will be published in journals, such as limnologyand oceanography, the journal of geophysical research, and the journal of great lakes research. All data will be permanently archived in a public database with appropriate documentation andmetadata. Software used to process data, run numerical models, and plot figures will also bearchived. Data accessibility will follow USGS policy and be available via sciencebase.GOV. Wealso plan to publish a webpage with a climatological index of near bottom currents and bottomstress during winter in the great lakes.
- Intended beneficiaries
- This project will benefit coldwater fish restoration in the great lakes. We plan to work directly with the lake erie committee habitat task group.
