Post-Workshop Resources
Google Drive folder with underwater pictures and videos. The National Geographic clip is particularly good and high quality. It is underwater footage from a shipwreck off shore South Manitou Island and Sleeping Bear Dunes. The video titled '2014 GH June-August" is time lapsed photos across the summer from our research site at Sleeping Bear.

Great Lakes Geology Webinar with Dr. David Lusch
Dr. Lusch is a Distinguished
Senior Research Specialist at Michigan State University with 36 years of
service in the Department of Geography and 23 years of service with the Institute
of Water Research. Dave conducts research and provides outreach education on
Michigan’s surface water and groundwater resources and how communities can
protect them. Dr. Lusch served as one of the instructors for three previous
teacher-development events of the COSEE Great Lakes Project: the Lake Huron Exploration Workshop (Aug
2007), the on-line workshop The Great Lakes Rock! (Jan 2008) and the Shipboard
and Shoreline Science Workshop - Lake Huron (July 2012).

Great Lakes Limnology & Ecology Webinar with Dr. Paris Collingsworth
Paris earned a bachelor’s degree in biology from Samford University, a master’s degree in zoology from Southern Illinois University and a Ph.D. in evolution, ecology and organismal biology from the Ohio State University. Prior to coming to Purdue, he did post-doctoral research at the US Geological Survey and the Cooperative Institute for Limnology and Ecosystems Research in Ann Arbor, Michigan. His research focuses on ecosystem dynamics in the Laurentian Great Lakes. Working in these large systems, Paris uses ecological and statistical models as tools to develop a mechanistic understanding about how anthropogenic and natural stressors impact ecosystem structure and function. This research is interdisciplinary by nature and gathering the data that inform these models requires collaborations with academic and agency personnel from across the basin. Current projects include identifying environmental factors that influence prey fish populations in Lakes Michigan and Huron, identifying sources of variation in the relationship between total phosphorus and chlorophyll concentrations in Lake Erie, determining the ecological effects of temporal and spatial variation of the deep chlorophyll maximum in Lake Ontario and exploring the spatial extent and ecological effects of hypoxia in Lake Erie.
