Title: A Great Lakes perspective on climate change and coastal water level variability

Abstract: Understanding climate change impacts on the hydrologic cycle of the Great Lakes region involves a complex interplay between changes in the magnitude and timing of precipitation events, changes in air and lake water temperature (and heat content), and the relative impacts of anthropogenic activities (including lake outflow regulation). In this presentation, Dr. Gronewold provides an overview of how the water balance of the Great Lakes has been monitored and modeled, and what recent changes in water balance components suggest for future planning in the region. An emphasis will be place on how these changes propagate into coastal water level variability, and the role of the Great Lakes in a continental-scale dialogue on North America's challenges related to water scarcity and abundance.
