SUMMARY:Flowering Rush Identification\, Biology\, and Management
DESCRIPTION:Join CLRMA member Elizabeth Brown and U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Dr. John Madsen for a virtual lunchtime webinar titled…Flowering Rush Identification\, Biology\, and Management. \nRegister here! \nFlowering rush (Butomus umbellatus L.) is becoming a widespread invasive weed in the waters of the West and Midwest. Flowering rush causes a number of nuisance problems including obstruction shorelines\, reducing irrigation flow\, and providing habitat for nonnative warmwater fish. This species is distinctive in appearance\, though is often confused with other emergent and submersed species. Flowering rush occurs as both diploid and triploid biotypes\, but western US populations are largely the triploid biotype. Recently published research has identified six genotypes in the US\, but one genotype in particular dominates in the western US. While an international group is actively looking for biological control agents\, at this time no insect biocontrol agents are available. Several herbicides are available and effective for chemical control of flowering rush\, with three application modes studied: foliar application to emergent leaves\, submersed inject to submersed leaves\, and bare-ground applications to newly-sprouted plants in the spring. Preemergent applications have also been studied. While harvesting has been used to manage foliage\, it is not a long-term management technique. Various physical techniques\, such as digging and bottom barriers\, have also been used. Whichever technique is used\, it is essential that the manager target the rhizome bud stage to reduce propagule production. \nJohn D. Madsen\, PhD. is Research Biologist with the US Department of Agriculture\, Agricultural Research Service\, Invasive Species and Pollinator Health Research Unit in Davis\, California\, USA. His work focuses on the biology\, ecology and management of aquatic plants\, particularly nuisance-forming species.

University of Wisconsin.\nBio: Dr. Hilary Dugan is an assistant professor at the Center for Limnology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. As a limnologist\, Hilary studies how terrestrial and atmospheric changes\, such as warming air temperatures or land use patterns\, alter biogeochemical fluxes and aquatic processes in lakes. Her research balances field-based programs\, which rely heavily on sensor networks\, with the use and development of analytical models\, and the application of geophysical and geospatial tools. Her research focus is on temperate and polar lakes\, with sites spanning from Wisconsin to Antarctica.

SUMMARY:Modeling the Effects of Land Development and Climate Change on Patagonian Lakes
DESCRIPTION:The pristine lakes of Northern Patagonia\, Chile\, are facing an uncertain future. These are some of the largest temperate lakes in the world which have not had significant anthropogenic modifications to their watersheds. Yet with anticipated urban development and the ever-present effects of climate change\, lake residents are concerned about a potential decline in lake water quality. Since 2019 the UC Davis Tahoe Environmental Research Center (TERC) has been collaborating with a Chilean Lake Advocacy NGO\, Chile Lagos Limpios\, to deploy the first in-situ\, high-frequency hydrodynamic and water quality instrumentation in these lakes. The team is utilizing monitoring and modeling methods\, previously developed by TERC to investigate the decline in the Tahoe’s renowned water clarity\, in order to examine how in-lake physical and biogeochemical processes will change under forecast development and climate scenarios. The monitoring design and preliminary modelling results will be presented for three lakes in the study region.

SUMMARY:Empowering Citizens to Monitor and Assess Risks of Harmful Cyanobacteria
DESCRIPTION:The conspicuous prevalence of harmful cyanobacteria blooms or HCBs (formerly referred to as HABs) has raised public awareness and concern over possible health risks to humans and wildlife. This presentation will examine the potential health risks associated with toxic cyanobacteria and describe new information on the pathways of exposure\, including air and water. The talk will also present recent advances in the development of tools and approaches to Citizen Science tracking of cyanobacteria\, estimating levels of cyanobacteria toxins and predicting the timing of cyanobacteria blooms. \nSpeaker \nJames Haney\nProfessor\, Center for Freshwater Biology & Exotoxicology @University of New Hampshire \nJim Haney is a Professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at the UNH. He is Director of the UNH Center for Freshwater Biology and co-founder of the New Hampshire Lakes Lay Monitoring Program. Dr. Haney teaches General Ecology\, Lake Ecology\, Stream Ecology and Ecotoxicology. His current research focus is on the transfer of cyanobacteria toxins within the lake food webs and their impact on wildlife such as fish and the Common Loon. Other research projects include 1) toxic aerosols as risk factors from lakes with toxigenic cyanobacteria 2) use of cyanobacteria pigments to predict cyanobacteria blooms and lake toxicity. He and his students are also conducting collaborative research with Dartmouth-Hitchcock ALS Clinic to examine toxic aerosols as possible links between cyanotoxins and neurological disorders such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and Alzheimer’s disease. He is also a member of the USP EPA Region 1 Cyanobacteria Monitoring Collaborative (cyanos.org).

SUMMARY:Webinar: The Nature Gap: Racial and Economic Disparities in the Outdoors
DESCRIPTION:In most states\, people of color and low-income communities are far less likely to have places to get outdoors near where they live. New data from the Center for American Progress and the Hispanic Access Foundation confirms what many have long suspected or known through experience: not everyone has equal access to nature’s benefits. The “nature gap” is real and it is wide. Nationwide\, communities of color are three times more likely than mostly white ones to be deprived of nearby nature—in the Northeast\, it’s nine times. \nThese disparities are not a coincidence\, but rather the result of a long history of environmental racism\, from the original dispossession of lands from Native Americans through years of forced migration\, the discriminatory practice of denying financial services based on race or ethnicity known as “redlining”\, segregation\, violence\, intimidation and exclusion from the decision-making table that continues in the conservation movement to this day. People of color and low-income communities are being both subject to the worst of nature destruction and locked out of efforts to undo it. This webinar will look at recent research that affirms this and at how the conservation and outdoors movement can rethink and remake itself to be more just\, inclusive and effective at guaranteeing nature as a right to all. \nThis important webinar is co-sponsored by the Bangor law firm of Gross\, Minsky & Mogul\, P.A.\, and by the Maine Lakes Environmental Justice Committee.
