High Water Damages Seabird Habitat In Dunes Along Lake Ontario, Student Finds
The devastation SUNY Oswego geology major Kimberly Smith saw as a volunteer last summer helping with cleanup at Sandy Island State Park drove her to study the impact of high water levels on wildlife habitat in the environmentally unique dunes of eastern Lake Ontario. The senior from Ozone Park, Queens, plans to share her findings April 4 during the scholarly poster presentation session at Quest, SUNY Oswego’s daylong symposium celebrating student, faculty and staff research and creativity.
