POTSDAM -- Michael Twiss, chair of the biology department at Clarkson University in Potsdam, New York, was appointed to the Great Lakes Science Advisory Board of the International Joint Commission (IJC).
The IJC was established by the Boundary Waters Treaty of 1909 to help Canada and the United States prevent and resolve disputes over the use of the waters the two countries share.
The IJC’s responsibilities include reporting on the progress made under the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement to restore and maintain the chemical, physical and biological integrity of the Great Lakes and connecting waters.
The Science Advisory Board provides advice on scientific matters to the IJC on Great Lakes water quality issues.
