Photographs of lighthouses from any place are welcome. All amateur photographers (one who’s income from photography is not more than one half of their annual earnings) are invited to participate. There are 2 levels of competition. The first level (the beginner) is for new entries and those that have yet to win. The second level (advanced) will be for those who have won in the past, starting with 2012 winners. Once you have won, you will advance to the second level. If you choose to be in the second level as a beginner you may, but any past winners cannot go back to the first level. The categories will be the same in both levels, but only the top 2 in each category will win. Categories include: (1) Traditional (Any lighthouse) (2) The Toledo Harbor Lighthouse (3) A Fresnel Lens. Photos may be digital or film. Only minimal photo editing, that does not change the concept of the photo, is allowed. (See official rules for specifics.) Photos will be displayed in the lobby of Maumee Bay State Park two weeks before the festival, between June 28th and July134th. Judging will be done by local artists and/or photography professionals before the festival. To enter, submit an 8 x 10 matted photo on Saturday, June 28th 12:00 A.M. and 2:00 P.M. at the Maumee Bay State Park Main Entrance.

  • 2000 Lake Erie Lamp
    Lake Erie LaMP 2000 L A K E E R I E L a M P 2 0 0 0 Preface One of the most significant environmental agreements in the history of the Great Lakes took place with the signing of the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement of 1978 (GLWQA), between the United States and Canada. This historic agreement committed the U.S. and Canada (the Parties) to address the water quality issues of the Great Lakes in a coordinated, joint fashion. The purpose of the GLWQA is to “restore and maintain the chemical, physical, and biological integrity of the waters of the Great Lakes Basin Ecosystem.” In the revised GLWQA of 1978, as amended by Protocol signed November 18, 1987, the Parties agreed to develop and implement, in consultation with State and Provincial Governments, Lakewide Management Plans (LaMPs) for lake waters and Remedial Action Plans (RAPs) for Areas of Concern (AOCs). The LaMPs are intended to identify critical pollutants that impair beneficial uses and to develop strategies, recommendations and policy options to restore these beneficial uses. Moreover, the Specific Objectives Supplement to Annex 1 of the GLWQA requires the development of ecosystem objectives for the lakes as the state of knowledge permits. Annex 2 further indicates that the RAPs and LaMPS “shall embody a systematic and comprehensive ecosystem approach to restoring and protecting beneficial uses...they are to serve as an important step toward virtual elimination of persistent toxic substances...” The Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement specifies that the LaMPs are to be completed in four stages. These stages are: 1) when problem definition has been completed; 2) when the schedule of load reductions has been determined; 3) when P r e f a c e remedial measures are selected; and 4) when monitoring indicates that the contribution of i the critical pollutants to impairment of beneficial uses has been eliminated.

  • Morphometric Factors in the Formation of Great Lakes Coastal Wetlands C
    P1: GIM TJ1095-03 TJ-AEM.cls May 27, 2004 9:29 Morphometric factors in the formation of Great Lakes coastal wetlands C. E. Herdendorf Department of Geological Sciences, The Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio 43210, USA; E-mail: [email protected] The Great Lakes basins were carved from ancient river valleys by continental ice sheets that receded from the region less than 10,000 years ago. Not only did the glaciers create the basins now holding the lakes, but they are responsible for many of the shallow depressions in the coastal margin that have since developed as coastal wetlands of various types. For the past four thousand years, coastal processes in the lakes have further modified the shore topography to form embayments, coastal lagoons, estuaries, deltas, and solution basins where thousands of hectares of wetlands have become established. This paper will explore the origin of the various morphometric forms which these wetlands have taken and their characteristic hydrologic processes. Keywords: estuaries, geomorphology, karst, lacustrine, palustrine, physiography Physiography of the Great Lakes gin of the waning ice sheet retreated northward into the newly carved lake basins, some of which were dammed The five adjoining Laurentian Great Lakes— by glacial end moraines. The early ice-margin lakes ex- Superior, Michigan, Huron, Erie, and Ontario—extend panded as the glacial ice masses shrank. However, as 1,370 km from westernmost point to easternmost point new and lower outlets were uncovered to the north, the and 1,130 km from north to south (Figure 1). With lakes drained to ever lowering levels except during peri- a total surface area of 244,160 km2, this is the largest ods of minor readvances of the ice front (Hough, 1962).

  • Relation of Shore and Nearshore Bottom Features to Rock Structure Along Lake Erie
    RELATION OF SHORE AND NEARSHORE BOTTOM FEATURES TO ROCK STRUCTURE ALONG LAKE ERIE ROBERT P. HARTLEY Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Division of Geological Survey, Sandusky, Ohio The shorelines of Lake Erie tend to parallel the strike of the bedrock, indicating an overall relation of shape to rock structure. This has been shown by Carman (1946) in his explanation of the relief features of the Erie basin. The south shore of the lake from the city of Huron eastward parallels the strike of the south- eastward-dipping Upper Devonian shales. The headlands and island chain of Point Pelee, Ontario, Pelee Island, Middle Island, Gull Island, Kelleys Island, Marblehead Peninsula, and Johnson's Island lie along the outcrop of the eastward-dipping Columbus limestone. Catawba Island, the three Bass Islands, East Sister Island, and Middle Sister Island lie on the outcrop of the Upper Bass Island dolomite group, following a curved pattern induced by the northward plunge of the Cincinnati Arch. The west end and FIGURE 1. Locality map of study area, northwest corner of Lake Erie parallel the same outcrop line. The eastern half of the north shore of Lake Erie is probably sub-parallel to the strike of southward- dipping Upper Devonian limestones. Small scale structural forms lead to variety in shoreline configuration. The following discussion deals with the forms found on Kelleys Island and those found along a two-mile stretch of shore just east of Vermilion, Ohio (fig. 1). Kelleys Island has been affected mainly by jointing of the Columbus limestone while the area east of Vermilion exhibits jointing, thrust faulting, normal faulting, and folding in the Ohio shales.

The Lake Erie Islands range in size from miniscule rock outcroppings that disappear and reappear with the rise and fall of the lake’s water levels, to larger inhabited land masses. Ohio’s largest island is Kelleys Island (2,837 acres), followed by South Bass (1,523 acres), Middle Bass (771 acres) and North Bass (677 acres) islands. The remaining Lake Erie Islands in Ohio are all smaller than 100 acres. Johnson’s Island, located in Sandusky Bay, is 300 acres. Canada’s Pelee Island (10,330 acres) is the largest island in Lake Erie. Ohio’s islands are renowned for their natural resources, recreational opportunities, cultural attractions and charm. South Bass Island is the southernmost and most developed of the three Bass Islands. It is located in Ottawa County approximately three miles north of Catawba Point. In the 1850s, the grape-growing and wine-making industries began to flourish, which helped establish the island as a popular vacation destination. The 625-room Hotel Victory was built in 1892. When it opened it was the largest resort hotel in the country and featured the first co-ed swimming pool. Fire destroyed the hotel in 1919.
