USGS Great Lakes Beach Health Initiative - Data
http://greatlakesbeaches.usgs.gov/data.html
Great Lakes Beach Health Initiative. A system that uses real-time information to "nowcast" water-quality conditions at two Lake Erie beaches. The information on this page is updated by 9:30 AM (EDT) every day during the regular swimming season. This nowcast issues advisories and predicts the probability once a day at the posted time only. US Department of the Interior. Page Contact Information: Webmaster. Page Last Modified:Tuesday, 30-Jun-2015 16:56:07 CDT.

The landscape is also, of course, dense with a wide variety of strange wetland flora.

http://greatlakesbeaches.usgs.gov/themes/coastal_processes.html
Great Lakes Beach Health Initiative. Coastal processes that may influence bacteria concentrations include longshore currents and sediment transport, surface-water contributions, turbulence associated with currents and wave action, changes in lake and groundwater water levels, and seiches. Beach sand and Cladophora (a filamentous green algae) potentially accumulate bacterial indicators and pathogens for release into lake waters. Coastal Processes at Great Lakes Beaches. Coastal processes that affect fecal...
