Great Lakes Mercury Connections: The Extent and Effects of Mercury Pollution on the Great Lakes Region is a collaboration of Biodiversity Research Institute, the Great Lakes Commission, and the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse.

In 2008, the Great Lakes Commission, funded by the U.S. EPA, sponsored a scientific synthesis of information on mercury in air, water, fish, and wildlife through its Great Lakes Air Deposition (GLAD) program. BRI’s executive director, David C. Evers, Ph.D., was the principal investigator on the project. James G. Wiener, Ph.D. of the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse and Charles T. Driscoll, Ph.D. of Syracuse University were co-principal investigators.
