THE MISSION OF THE RSC IS TO PROMOTE AND ENHANCE OUR KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING OF THE LAKE ERIE AND OHIO RIVER BASIN ECOSYSTEMS THROUGH RESEARCH AND EDUCATION. THE RSC ACCOMPLISHES THIS BY FACILITATING COLLABORATIONS AMONG RESEARCHERS, K-12 EDUCATORS, AND THE COMMUNITY, PROVIDING CENTRALIZED FACILITIES AND EQUIPMENT, EXCHANGING OF SCIENTIFIC INFORMATION THROUGH CONFERENCES, COURSES, WORKSHOPS, AND OTHER PUBLIC EVENTS, OFFERING EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS, RESEARCHERS, AND TEACHERS, ADVANCING THE UNDERSTANDING OF WATERSHED-RELATED ISSUES, AND FOCUSING ON LAKE ERIE AND THE TRI-STATE REGION.
