Implementation of the Great Lakes Observing System

Description of Work The Great Lakes Observing System (GLOS) coordinates and integrates regional coastal observations supporting national and regional priorities including Great Lakes restoration. The Department of Interior backbone project is providing GLOS equipment for collecting water-quality sensor parameters and samples for organic and metal contaminants, and nutrient and sediment data in tributaries, embayments, and the nearshore to determine and guide restoration activities. Simulation models are also being developed that will provide quantifiable measures of restoration progress and comparisons of progress over time and space.
