  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Early explorations on the Great Lakes were concerned largely with things easily collected or observed&amp;mdash;common organisms, water levels, surface temperatures &amp;hellip; Even when more scientific studies were undertaken, they were at first scattered and small-scale. Effective surveys became possible only through inter-agency cooperation which permits a pooling of facilities, staff, and equipment. Expansion of limnological research on the Great Lakes has been rapid in later years and the outlook for the future is good.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
