Methods:
To study the effect of Zequanox on Dreissinid mussels, we will compare the biological, chemical, physical response for control (no Zequanoz) and treatment (open water Zequanox additions) in Round Lake (Emmet County). Sampling for these various components will be conducted using a combination of snorkeling, water column samples, profiles, and other limnological techniques. Samples for benthic macro-invertebrates will be sorted and analyzed at UMBS using dissecting microscopes.
