Lake Erie's east basin
Map: CHS/NOAA
I live on the north shore of Lake Erie. I watch its water levels rise and fall, its storms rage and subside. I boat hundreds of kilometres on its surface in the course of a year. I watch the migratory birds, butterflies and dragonflies swarm along Long Point every spring and fall. I swim on its wonderful sandy beaches. I'm intrigued by all aspects of Lake's Erie's natural history and geography. To that end, I've enjoyed this set of bathymetry maps from the Canadian Hydrographic Service, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Geophysical Data Center's Marine Geology and Geophysics Division, and the NOAA Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory.
