As Great Lakes’ winter ice disappears it hit record lows in the winter of 2023-24 new analyses show that some diatoms appear to have a different way to create energy and survive in the dark, turbid ice-free water until summer .

These microbes are crucial to the Great Lakes' health, clean the water of pollutants and are the first step in the complex food web that supports a fishery that powers part of a regional economy.

Steven Wilhelm : Having the chance to watch this change from the beginning creates a unique opportunity to understand the effect of a warming climate on the Great Lakes and similar lakes around the world.

He says it's a unique chance to see the effects of climate change on Great Lakes .
