    It's a draft! Finally a draft! Stuart and Carolyn are joined by Katelynn Johnson of the Real-time Aquatic Ecosystem Observation Network (RAEON) and Jessie Grow of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee School of Freshwater Sciences as they draft real-time data observation methods. Come learn about all of the ways that people are monitoring the Great Lakes in real time, ranging from cutting edge, hi-tech methods to decidedly more old-fashioned ways, too.
