About the event

Science on Tap! Grand Island: An ecological (and slightly hyperbolic) tour
A complex interplay of disturbance factors has shaped the patterning of ecosystems across Grand Island. In 2023, Michigan Natural Features Inventory launched a three-year effort to survey islands in Lake Superior. In this presentation, we will provide an overview of our ecological surveys of Grand Island, a National Recreation Area managed by the Hiawatha National Forest, a key partner for this endeavor. We will describe our methods for prioritizing surveys in the ecologically most significant places and how we employ the latest technology to inform this process. The presentation will offer a glimpse of the ecological splendor of Grand Island including the mind-boggling vertical gardens of the sandstone lakeshore cliffs, the majestic old-growth forests, and the amazing complexity of the tombolo. We will conclude the presentation with lessons learned from our intensive island experience.
