   abstract: Owen Stefaniak is a Physical Scientist with the U.S. Geological Survey
     Upper Midwest Water Science Center, Wisconsin office. His current research interests
     focus broadly on investigating anthropogenic impacts on surface water quality.
     He has been involved in a range of projects including assessment of organic
     contaminants in sediment and porewater of Great Lakes tributaries, monitoring
     aircraft and pavement deicer runoff in airport adjacent waterways, extent of
     waterborne pathogens and pharmaceutical compounds in rivers and streams, and
     monitoring concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in urban
     stormwater runoff. He has also participated in field efforts that support investigations
     of harmful algal toxins in the Fox River/Lake Winnebago watershed, and polychlorinated
     biphenyls (PCBs) in the Clinton River Area of Concern. Prior to joining the
     Upper Midwest Water Science Center, Owen worked as a marine science technician
     on the U.S. EPA research vesselLake Guardian(2014-2018), and a science educator
     on the educational tall shipS/V Denis Sullivan(2011-2014). In addition to the
     EPA's biannual long-term monitoring cruises, his time onLake Guardianincluded
     field work on a diverse range of projects including the Great Lakes Sediment
     Surveillance Program, CSMI benthic monitoring in Lakes Erie, Michigan, Superior,
     and Huron, and the National Coastal Condition Assessment survey of the Huron-Erie
     connecting corridor. He has broad experience in pelagic monitoring and sampling
     methodologies as well as the planning and logistics of offshore scientific operations.
     He holds a U.S. Coast Guard 100-ton near coastal master's license.
