Lake Michigan Modeling and Forecasting Working Group

The Lake Michigan Modeling and Forecasting working group provides an opportunity for managers, modelers and users of model outputs to work collaboratively to help improve decision making as well as the usefulness and functionality of models. Working group activities bring together existing management priorities in the region and work to address identified needs. 

Some Intended outcomes of the working group are to improve the ability to implement ecosystem-based management, increase the capacity to address lakewide issues, advance the field of modeling, and leverage existing resources and activities to provide information in the most cost effective manner.

The Lake Michigan Modeling and Forecasting Working Group developed out of a workshop held in Ann Arbor, MI in December 2010. Download the Final Workshop Report: LMMFWG_FinalReport.pdf
