During the spring of 2008 a subset of the WATER Institute's Great Lakes Urban Coastal Observing System (GLUCOS) was deployed to demonstrate the ability of the observatory to remotely monitor, in real time, the seasonal transition from a mixed state to a stratified state in coastal Lake Michigan. A prominent feature of this transition is the spring thermal front, also known as the thermal bar, a boundary...
The UWM Great Lakes WATER Institute is developing an underwater observatory designed for scientific studies of physical, chemical and biological processes in Lake Michigan and similar large lakes. GLUCOS, the Great Lakes Urban Coastal Observing System, is a buoy-based sensor network that will support research on the interactions between Milwaukee Harbor and the lake, and other processes in coastal...
We are developing an aquatic observatory to observe and study near-shore processes in Lake Michigan. The Great Lakes Urban Coastal Observing System (GLUCOS) is designed to make both long-term measurements and transient event measurements of river-harbor-lake interactions that occur in Milwaukee Harbor and the adjacent Milwaukee Bay region of Lake Michigan. Two large "Endurance" buoys will...
