Center for Lakes and Reservoirs

The Center for Lakes and Reservoirs (CLR) at Portland State University (PSU) was established by the Oregon State legislature to address lake management and invasive aquatic species issues in Oregon. The CLR is in the Environmental Science and Management Department at PSU, which has a major focus on watershed and aquatic ecosystem management. Faculty from other PSU departments and other universities and adjunct faculty from federal agencies (US Fish and Wildlife Service, US Army Corps of Engineers, Smithsonian Institution) collaborate with CLR on research projects and serve on graduate student committees.
