Our ecosystem restoration project focused on the recolonization of Mysis is officially underway. We successfully managed to capture 10,000 Mysis from Lake 224 and add them to Lake 223. If you want to read more about the experiment, you can check it out here. Here’s a good twitter thread on how that all went down last […]
Kudos to the brave members of the lab (including honorary members) who braved the chunky ice for a solid game of shinny out on Lake Tamblyn! Might be the last time skates hit that ice this year (after an hour we were skating on slush) but still a good time (once we found the ice […]
Some great things happening in CEELAB to kick off 2018.

Congratulations to all our students winning major scholarships this year. Sarah Warrack was awarded an NSERC CGS-M, Victoria Langen was awarded the Queen Elizabeth II Graduate Scholarship (OGS), and Graydon McKee, Marissa Wegher and Kyle Stratton all received North Shore Superior Awards. Well done gang!
The CEE lab was well represented at IAGLR 2017 in Detroit in May. Victoria presented her preliminary findings on isotopic changes in the offshore fish in Lake Simcoe, and Marissa presented her preliminary work showing spatial differences in rainbow smelt energy efficiency and growth rates across Lake Superior. She also won the ‘best visual’ award […]
Congratulations to Kyle Stratton who won the best undergraduate presentation in the department of Natural Resources Management on Friday for his work on evaluating diversity and change in steelhead life histories across the north shore of Lake Superior. Way to go Kyle! All three of our undergraduates gave excellent presentations on Friday- Brennan Deboer in […]
Graydon McKee presented some early findings from his study on Walleye telemetry in Black Bay at the GLATOS meeting in Ann Arbour Feb. 28th to March 1st. Great meeting, lots of exciting stuff going on with fish telemetry in the Great Lakes!
