What lies Beneath Lake Erie? - Hydrographic Surveying with NOAA vessel Thomas Jefferson

September 14th,2022 | 7:00 PM - 8:30 PM
Speaker:

What lies beneath Lake Erie? That's a question Thomas Loeper, Great Lakes Navigation Manager at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) will explore in this exciting presentation. Learn about hydrographic surveying that the vessel Thomas Jefferson conducted this year to create a complete 3D coverage of the sea floor of Lake Erie. One of the focus areas was the sandy peninsula around Presque Isle State Park. The goal is to update navigational charts and collect data for state and federal scientists.
