  2. Objectives • Modeled after LEMN: 2 academic and 2 agency leads. • Voluntary, non-regulatory, bi-national, and inclusive: all 8 states and Ontario, academia, private sector, NGOs, etc. • Initiated by NOAA Sea Grant, but fundable by any agency or group, and permanent. • Add value to existing programs. • Enhance collaboration and communication of research, education, and outreach results and priorities within the Great Lakes region.

  3. Objectives • Provide a network for coordination, collaboration, communication and resource sharing. • Assist the IJC Council of Great Lakes Research Managers in developing and implementing their Great Lakes Research Strategy.

  4. Objectives • Better coordinate academic research scientists and enhance interactions between academic and agency scientists. • Provide a single point of contact for each lake to reach all research scientists on that lake and all scientists in the region.

  5. Objectives • Build research capacity on each lake. • Facilitate rapid response to RFPs. • Develop research information network to support GLRC.

  6. Objectives 14. Identify and clarify research priorities and issues and the science questions to address these priorities and issues. 13. Shows how GL priorities and needs fit into US Ocean Research Priorities Plan.

  7. Objectives 15. Facilitate development of proposals to address above priorities and issues.
