Strategy 2. Binational Conferences (1999; 2001; 2003; 2006; 2008;2010) invited speakers + contributed posters; 175+ attendees - no concurrent sessions - compile current knowledge of Lake Erie processes - forecast trends for the next 3-5 years - identify critical research gaps - take stock: - what do we know? - what do we understand? - what do we need to know/understand? Outcomes: - “Research Needs” workshops --> summarize consensus on the 7 subject areas - status reports & proposals - collaborative research teams

Monitoring Modeling Hypothesis testing Research QuestionsStatus of the Lake Management Needs Relationship among management, research, & monitoring needs within LEMP. 3. forming collaborative groups (open to all) Policy

Workshops and Research Arising 1. Limits on Energy Transfer in the Lake Erie Ecosystem - Critical Tests of Hypotheses EPA-funded Lake Erie Trophic Status project (2002): -28 PI’s funded by US EPA ($500K) -all agency collaboration  $2M in kind support - Journal of Great Lakes Research special issue (June/06) 2. Contaminant Processes in Lake Erie (2000) - Part I. Loadings, Spatial Patterns, and Temporal Trends - Part II. Mechanisms and Processes - Part III. Ecosystem Implications [review papers] 3. Habitat Structure, Function, and Change Anticipating effects of water level changes on habitat distribution & quality in the Huron-Erie Corridor - funded by GLFC; 5 PI’s & cooperators; models proposed (2004) Binational Mapping Strategy for Lake Erie watershed - funded by US EPA & Envir. Cda. (2005/06) -12 PI’s & cooperators - all agency collaboration

Workshops and Research Arising 4. Land-Lake Loadings IJC & OMAFRA Sponsored workshops ( ): -28 PI’s funded by US EPA ($500K) -all agency collaboration  $2M in kind support - Journal of Great Lakes Research special issue (June/06) 5. Understanding Causes of Nearshore Eutrophication (2009) - BEC Intensive monitoring year (EPE, EC, MOE, OMNR, etc.) - 7 integrated projects funded by US EPA & LEPF - parallel studies in Ontario - SERA 17 Phosphorus forum 6. Collaborative Research under GLRI (& EC support) - update landuse/landcover for habitat classification - continuing nearshore research - monitoring wetland condition & ecological services

Charge to the LEMN Conference – Apr/08 Nutrients & Trophic Structure Open lake nutrient dynamics & trophic structure seem to be regulated by regional processes. Weather likely plays a significant role Assess at basin-scale, with integrative sampling & observing systems? Nearshore nutrient dynamics & trophic structure are regulated by local coupling & feedback loops. Local nutrient sources & dreissenids are likely important. Assess at contributing watershed scale? What are the key research questions? What key variables/processes should we measure? Where? How often? For how long? Is the proposed habitat zone system suitable for these studies?
