scientists at the great lakes environmental research laboratory in ann arbor michigan blame evaporation and less precipitation for the dropping lake levels. >> when the water temperatures increase, which they are right now, especially in through the summertime, then in the fall when we have the cool air masses coming over the lakes we have increased evaporation. that evaporation rate has been exaggerated particularly this year. we're in a year with extremely low precipitation. very little rain was coming into the system both in the form of snow and direct rainfall on to the lakes themselves. >> reporter: last winter was the fourth warmest winter on record. and those warmer temperatures lead to less ice formation and still more evaporation. >> when the lakes are changing that dramatically that is a change in the climate. now what is causing the lakes to warm so much, that is something that is going to require some additional research. >> reporter: with great lakes water levels at historic lows, the only way to keep harbors open is by excavating or dredging the lake bottom. but chuck may,
