Eureka Aquatic Research LLC is a woman-owned small disadvantaged business located in Ann Arbor, Michigan, specializing in aquatic ecosystem modeling and scientific research. Registered in SAM.gov since August 2018, the company has established itself as a niche provider of advanced environmental modeling services, particularly focused on Great Lakes ecosystems. The firm is structured as a for-profit limited liability company with expertise in developing complex ecological simulations that address climate change impacts, invasive species dynamics, and food web interactions.

Over the past five years, Eureka Aquatic Research LLC has consistently secured federal contract awards from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), exclusively receiving purchase order contracts totaling approximately $572,069. The company's primary service offering involves developing sophisticated Atlantis Ecosystem models for various Great Lakes environments, with specific focus on simulating climate change effects on fisheries and aquatic food webs. Their contracts have specifically covered earth system modeling for Lake Huron, Lake Michigan, and Lake Ontario, as well as specialized modeling of invasive species like Asian carp. Each contract has been awarded on a sole source basis, indicating the company's unique capability in applying detailed ecosystem modeling techniques. The contracts, ranging from $47,025 to $95,167, have consistently supported NOAA's efforts to understand complex marine and freshwater ecosystem dynamics, with work periods typically spanning one to two years. No set-aside designations were used in these awards, and the contracts were competitively justified based on Eureka Aquatic Research's specialized technical expertise.

Using numerical models, the Eureka Aquatic Research, LLC. investigates the interactions between aquatic ecosystems and the natural and anthropogenic stressors to understand, protect and manage our environments.
