2. Lakes Increase air temps/ decrease winter ice cover increases lake water evaporation. Inland lake management and associated tourism will be challenged by lower lake levels. Fish and the ice. Increased summer water temperatures in lakes may promote larger and more frequent harmful algal blooms.

3. Effects on streams Many of the streams will change their heat regime from cooler to warmer. This will cause many species of fish to move to cooler streams. This will cause a drop in jobs and fish population An increase in stream organisms diversity.

4. Streams The increase in the amount of water this will cause economic problems for all those effected. The climate change will lead to an increase in storms and the intensity of the storms This intensity will cause streams to possible change their direction. This will cause issues for those who use them and the minerals contained in the water.

5. Change due to season length The longer summer season could cause smaller streams to dry up This decrease in small runoffs will add more stress to larger streams because they will deal with more water then they used to.

6. Agriculture Total crop sales in Michigan equals about $3.3 billion per year. Growing season will increase. 4-9 weeks longer than 1961-90 by the end of the century. Soil erosion and runoff. Warmer winters may induce earlier flowering of fruit trees. Increased reliance on irrigation is likely. (surface and groundwater resources).

7. Shipping and Transportation More Precipitation 20-40% Integrity of St. Lawrence Shipping Rout Lower Temperatures in the Winter

8. Recreation / Tourism Fishing Skiing Hunting Snowmobiling And many more http://research.stlouisfed.org/fred2/series/MIEART
