This award provides funds to the University of Wisconsin's Trout Lake Station to aid in the purchase of a boat and microscope for accurate measurements of fish and microbes in fresh water ecosystems. The station provides access to aquatic systems that range from temporary ponds to large lakes and that represent a broad diversity of hydrologic, edaphic, and trophic conditions. Most of these habitats lie within protected watersheds with low population densities. Current programs at Trout Lake include several multi-investigator, ecosystem-level investigations as well as numerous smaller-scale projects involving population and community ecology, hydrology, fisheries biology, and basic limnology. One major focus in these efforts has been to evaluate and quantify the organisms that occur in the ecosystems in our region. The new equipment will improve the ease and quality of these efforts.

该奖项为威斯康星州大学的鳟鱼湖站提供资金，以帮助购买一艘船和显微镜，用于精确测量淡水生态系统中的鱼类和微生物。该站提供了从临时池塘到大型湖泊的水生系统，代表了水文，土壤和营养条件的广泛多样性。 这些生境大多位于受保护的流域内，人口密度低。 鳟鱼湖目前的项目包括几个多调查员，生态系统层面的调查，以及许多涉及人口和社区生态，水文，渔业生物学和基础湖沼学的小规模项目。 这些努力的一个主要重点是评估和量化我们区域生态系统中的生物。 新设备将使这些工作更加容易和质量更高。
