Great Lakes & Watershed Studies, BGSU

🎥 We’re rolling out a video series all about H2Ohio’s agricultural Best Management Practices, exploring how these BMPs help keep Ohio’s water clean. Kicking things off: the Voluntary Nutrient Management Plan, which is the backbone of ag’s H2Ohio program. Check it out ⬇️

A @CGLWS_BG research team led by @BGSU_Biology assistant professor Chris Ward is studying the effects of bits of pre-production plastic, called nurdles, leaching chemicals into water systems. #bgsu #waterquality #research #publicgood bit.ly/4mpQLYe

After years of detecting harmful algae in Sandusky Bay, #BGSU researchers discovered that a toxic algae called Planktothrix has essentially disappeared, highlighting the positive impact of ecological restoration.💧 #NationalWaterQualityMonth 📰 bit.ly/4daSwmZ

BGSU offers several water-related majors & programs. Learn how you can be involved with research that is dedicated to the protection & restoration of our planet, specifically in regard to fresh waters & watersheds. bit.ly/4c1TQbn #bgsu #research #waterquality #publicgood

Learn more about #aquaponics research here @bgsu with Dr. Kevin Neves and Grad student Maria D'Amico. We look forward to the episode of @PBS "America the Bountiful" featuring some their work bgsu.edu/news/2024/06/a…

Researchers used to find 10 milligrams of microcystin per liter in samples from Lake Erie's Sandusky Bay. Since 2020, they’ve found less than 1 milligram per liter. “It's quite a drastic change,” said George Bullerjahn, @BGSU_Biology emeritus professor. bit.ly/4edOHys

Undergrads, we now have a summary of all our Water-Related Majors and Programs across campus. These programs allow you to focus on important challenges faced locally and globally. ⁦@CGLWS_BG⁩ ⁦@BGSU_SEES⁩ ⁦@BGSUchem⁩ ⁦@ArtSciBGSU⁩ bgsu.edu/research/lake-…

Happy Earth Day!🌎 Today we recognize the BGSU faculty & student researchers who are working to protect and restore our planet. #bgsu #EarthDay #STEM #research #publicgood

Do fish have ears? Yes, and while they might not be visible on the outside, their inner ears contain tiny, stone-like structures called otoliths that help them process sound. Otoliths are the subject of newly funded Ohio Sea Grant research. Read more: ohioseagrant.osu.edu/news/2024/zzxe…

Happy #WorldWaterDay from researchers @bgsu out in the Sandusky Bay in the RV Ziggy #LakeErie #AyZiggy

Registration is open for #IAGLR24. Don't miss out on the chance to see all the amazing #GreatLakesSci from around the basin and beyond. Early-bird rates end on April 2: bit.ly/4c56vuC
