Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS NOIP15AC00368
The grant opportunity focuses on using diatoms as a biomonitoring tool to assess water quality changes in Great Lakes Network parks. The goal is to analyze diatom samples from lake sediments and water samples for nutrient and chlorophyll levels, which will help interpret historical and recent environmental conditions.
The project will be collaboratively managed by a principal investigator from the Science Museum of Minnesota and the National Park Service (NPS)’s Great Lakes Network Aquatic Ecologist. They, along with other aquatic ecologists, will work together on data analysis and will co-author reports and publications related to the study.
Key tasks for the project include:
1. Appointing a principal investigator to oversee the analysis of water quality samples. 2. Conducting thorough chemical analyses of water samples, focusing on various nutrients and chlorophyll, with about 200 samples analyzed annually for each parameter. 3. Collecting and analyzing diatom samples from approximately 10 lakes each year, including preparation and counting to create inventories of diatom species richness and abundance. 4. Performing quality control on diatom samples and running numerical analyses to determine community and environmental changes over time using advanced statistical techniques. 5. Producing a technical report every two years that summarizes the findings in relation to historical variations and contemporary changes in diatom communities.
The NPS will support by managing the collection of sediment and water samples, ensuring the correct protocols are followed, and providing necessary permits for fieldwork. The data will be shared with relevant agencies and the public, contributing to a better understanding of environmental changes in the Great Lakes region.Apply for NPS NOIP15AC00368
