Research

Research at TIBS began with a series of studies revolving around impacts of extension of the shipping season on the St. Lawrence Seaway in the mid-1970s.

In the early 1980s, TIBS became a primary site for the investigation of declines of Great Lakes Muskellunge through a US/Canadian partnership Muskellunge Working Group that set research and management priorities.


These early efforts have led to considerable diversification in our research and monitoring agenda.
