SITE OF THE MONTH for July: USGS Great Lakes Science Center
 >> http://www.glsc.usgs.gov/ <<
The U.S. Geological Survey's Great Lakes Science Center was founded in 
1927 and is celebrating its 75th year of science in the Great Lakes 
region. The Center provides scientific information for the sound 
management of Great Lakes fish populations and other important natural 
resources in the basin. On the web you can explore and obtain 
information on fish stock assessment and community dynamics, aquatic and 
wetland habitat, coastal ecology on public lands, and exotic species. 
You'll also find many useful links for students, the "Atlas of the 
Spawning and Nursery Areas of Great Lakes Fishes" and profiles of the 
Center's five fishery research vessels.
