Singing Sands and the Sturgeon Bowl
In this final podcast Chris and Doggus head once more for the shores of Lake Michigan. Things don’t quite turn out as planned – but before they get home, you will hear the famous singing sands of Lake Michigan from a very unusual perspective, and also find out how Sea Grant is sowing the seeds for future science. Sea Grant helps support the Lake Sturgeon Bowl, a regional academic competition sponsored by the National Ocean Sciences Bowl. Liz Sutton, a regional coordinator for the Sturgeon Bowl, is interviewed by Chris during an actual competition, and she explains how the Sturgeon Bowl works, and the many benefits it brings to students of freshwater science.

Ancient Oaks Tell Climate Stories
Oak trees in Wisconsin provide a record of rainfall going back 300 years. They're helping us understand what to expect in the next three centuries. This research is led by Evan Larson, a dendrochonologist (tree ring scientist) at the University of Wisconsin-Platteville.
Sea Grant and Lake Superior
University of Wisconsin Sea Grant Institute
Superior's Sister
In this final episode, Shon Schooler from the National Estuarine Research Reserve (NERR) explains the goals of this exciting new project at St. Louis River estuary. The St. Louis River is the largest American river that flows into Lake Superior, and has been an important transportation hub for many decades. University of Wisconsin Sea Grant Institute has helped sponsor much research in this estuary, including the new research being conducted by Emily Stanley and graduate student Luke Loken on sediment deposition in the estuary. They talk about the goals of their ambitious research project, and then University of Wisconsin Sea Grant science communicator Marie Zhuikov closes the series with a poem about the intertwined symbiotic relationship between Lake Superior and the St. Louis River Estuary.
