Educational Resources:
We had the opportunity to work with Science Journal for Kids to adapt the Nature Communications article on (paleo)productivity in Lake Superior into an open-access article for high-school students, including teaching resources for quick and easy incorporation into existing lesson plans. Check it out here: How does climate change affect the Great Lakes?
