    After 13 years, the Little Manistee Weir is complete! Partners from @DetroitUsace, USFWS, @MichiganDNR, and GLFC came together to celebrate the upgraded barrier that protects 117.8 miles of river from sea lampreys, saving $1.23M compared to 50 years of lampricide treatment.

    Another great day at the U.P. State Fair in Escanaba, MI! Lots to see and do, including visiting our booth—with live sea lampreys—in the Ruth Butler Exhibition Building. Still plenty of time to enjoy all the fair has to offer, we'll be here through Sunday! #GreatLakes #SeaLamprey

    #DidYouKnow researchers can now track fish in real time using autonomous robotic boats equipped with acoustic receivers, bringing mobility and speed to Great Lakes science? 🎥 See the robotic boats in action: youtu.be/axlGLz-HF9Y?si… #SciComm #DYK

    #DidYouKnow fluvial geomorphology-the study of the physical form of rivers-is used for #sealamprey control? This work informs staff how rivers respond to barriers, which barriers work for specific stream types, & how to design & place new barriers for longterm effectiveness. #DYK
