The James W. Moffett Award
The Moffett award was established to recognize the best scientific publication authored or coauthored by personnel of the Great Lakes Science Center during each calendar year. The award was named in honor of James William Moffett (1908-1967), a former director of the Great Lakes Science Center. Mr. Moffett was internationally renowned for planning and supervision of research to control sea lamprey and posthumously received the U.S. Department of the Interior Distinguished Service Award in 1968. All scientific papers on the Great Lakes and surrounding watershed generated from research studies forming a part of the Center's program and appearing in peer-reviewed publications during a calendar year are eligible for consideration. Below is a list of papers that have received the Moffett Award since it was established in 1967. Note: OP indicates that reprints are not available for distribution. 2005
