THIS MORNING: We're checking up on the health of the Detroit River, and other waterways that impact people in Michigan & Canada. There's some good news and some bad. Let's start with the good. Here's Dr. John Hartig @GLIERUWINDSOR @wxyzdetroit @DetroitRvrfrnt @DetroitRiverSoS

[Alliance for the Great Lakes @A4GL]

Based off the findings of the 11th biennial report from @DetroitRiverSoS, a joint US & Canadian panel of scientists and other stakeholders, #ClimateChange is exacerbating multiple #GreatLakes threats. https://t.co/Gvcp5kce8v

Without a commitment to science-based
quantitative target setting and long-term monitoring, management is flying blind. #detroitriver #lakeerie #GreatLakes [4/4]

[State of the Strait @DetroitRiverSoS]

Today, we released the latest State of the Strait report, “Checkup: Assessing Ecosystem Health of the Detroit River and Western Lake Erie.” This report is based on the evaluation of long-term datasets on 61 indicators of ecosystem health. https://t.co/rTadgk7oCr [1/4]

[State of the Strait @DetroitRiverSoS]

Continued priority must be placed on science-based, quantitative, target setting for ecosystem integrity. Long-term monitoring is essential to practice adaptive management that assesses state of the ecosystem, sets management priorities, and implements management
actions [3/4]

[Detroit River Canadian Cleanup (DRCC) 🇨🇦 @DetroitRiverRAP]

Our RAP Coordinator updated the Soft Shoreline and the Canadian Habitat Restoration in the Detroit River indicator reports. Check out these and the other indicator reports here: https://t.co/QSQzFksUSW #detroitriver #GreatLakes #areasofconcern

[Detroit River Canadian Cleanup (DRCC) 🇨🇦 @DetroitRiverRAP]

An indicator is a measurable feature that provides useful information on ecosystem status, quality or trends and the factors that affect them. The DRCC is part of the Detroit River-Western Lake Erie indicator project, which recently updated its indicators. @DetroitRiverSoS
