The Lake Erie Center for Fresh Waters and Human Health is a five-year, multi-institutional effort aimed at understanding the environmental factors and ongoing changes that influence the growth and toxicity of cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cHABs) in Lake Erie. The Center will support three research projects. Specifically these projects address the following aims: first, how environmental cues promote or constrain the proliferation of cHAB species in mixed populations; second, how environmental cues influence toxin production by cHAB species; third, how other member of the microbial assemblage influence cHAB growth and toxicity. The Center will provide a Community Engagement Core to lead outreach activities that will inform the general public on the effects of cHABs by efforts that include: (1) a community engaged scholarship training for scientists associated with the Center, (2) community-engaged scholarship training for practitioners or community members associated with the Center, and (3) a stakeholder needs assessment for Great Lakes and environmental health literacy to inform general outreach information needs. A citizen science engagement with charter boat captains will further develop a near real-time database on cHAB severity in Lake Erie, and the Facilities Core will provide metadata that not only serve the three stated research projects, but also yield a database available to all Great Lakes scientists. The outcomes are to involve community stakeholders and researchers in the Great Lakes on issues regarding human health, climate change and awareness of threats to our fresh water resources. The Center is jointly supported by NSF and by the National Institute for Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS).This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

伊利湖沃茨和人类健康中心是一个为期五年的多机构努力，旨在了解影响伊利湖蓝藻有害藻华（cHABs）生长和毒性的环境因素和持续变化。该中心将支持三个研究项目。具体而言，这些项目解决了以下目标：第一，环境线索如何促进或限制混合种群中的cHAB物种的增殖;第二，环境线索如何影响cHAB物种的毒素生产;第三，微生物组合的其他成员如何影响cHAB的生长和毒性。该中心将提供一个社区参与核心，以领导外展活动，通过以下努力向公众宣传cHABs的影响：（1）为与中心有关的科学家提供社区参与的奖学金培训，（2）为与中心有关的从业人员或社区成员提供社区参与的奖学金培训，以及（3）利益攸关方对五大湖和环境卫生知识的需求评估，以告知一般的外联信息需求。公民科学与包船船长的参与将进一步开发一个关于伊利湖cHAB严重程度的近实时数据库，设施核心将提供元数据，不仅服务于三个既定的研究项目，而且还产生一个可供所有五大湖科学家使用的数据库。其成果是让五大湖的社区利益攸关方和研究人员参与有关人类健康、气候变化和认识对我们淡水资源的威胁的问题。该中心由NSF和国家环境健康科学研究所（NIEHS）共同支持。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
