Most of the aquatic ecology/ecosystems research is carried out at the GLC Field Station, and focuses on the Great Lakes and their tributaries; however, Center personnel are also involved in a number of projects in other states (e.g. Wisconsin, Texas), as well as in Europe, South America, and Canada. We maintain an active international collaboration with world experts in invasion biology that allows us to be aware of future invaders, and concentrate our limited resources in order to minimize the negative effects of aquatic nuisance species.
