His current research at USGS includes examining the effect climate change has on physical dynamics, ice cover, productivity of lakes. As USGS team leader on our Long Term Monitoring and Assessment program of Torch Lake kicking off this year, Dr. Robertson will share his expertise on impacts on water quality and insights on the health of Torch Lake.
