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.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Wastewater Surveillance for COVID-19
DESCRIPTION:With support from In-Situ\, California Lake Management Society is hosting this free webinar on wastewater monitoring for COVID-19. \nWastewater monitoring for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is an emerging public health tool to understand COVID-19 spread in a community. This is because SARS-CoV-2 can be shed in the feces of infected individuals from both symptomatic and asymptomatic cases\, eventually ending up in the wastewater. The objectives of this project were to (i) develop and implement methods to monitor SARS-CoV-2 in wastewater and (ii) examine the levels of the SARS-CoV-2 in wastewater facilities in Southeast Louisiana and develop key relationships with cases in the community to support public health decisions to manage and prevent the spread of the disease. Weekly composite wastewater samples have been collected from 5 wastewater treatment plants for the analysis of SARS-CoV-2. The results and experience of monitoring SARS-CoV-2 in wastewaters in 4 cities in Southeast Louisiana will be presented. \nHow to Join:\nWednesday May 5th\, 2021\n12pm – 1pm PST\nCall in: (517) 317-3122\nAccess code: 365-584-941\nComputer\, tablet or smartphone\, click HERE to join

SUMMARY:Webinar: Successful Lake Management & The Feasibility of Alum to Improve Water Quality
DESCRIPTION:Registration: \nJoin HAB Aquatic Solutions\, Lake County Health Department and the Illinois Lakes Management Association for an informative webinar on water quality. This event is FREE but requires registration. \nPlease register for the webinar on Eventbrite. \nEvent Description: \nPoor water quality in lakes has many symptoms and most of them are caused by having too much algae in your lake. Such symptoms include scums\, low clarity\, odors\, algal toxins\, low oxygen levels\, poor fishing\, fish kills and reduced recreational and property values. What’s the cause of nuisance levels of algae? Too much phosphorus (P). Phosphorus is generally the nutrient that controls algal growth in lakes and lower amounts of P lead to lower amounts of algae and associated poor water quality symptoms. That’s why the main focus of appropriate and successful lake management is directed at P management. So\, how is P in your lake best reduced and controlled? Well\, that really depends on where is the P coming from. Too often we want to rush into trying a solution\, while skipping the mundane steps of determining the sources and amounts of P entering the lake. This valuable diagnostic information is needed to design the appropriate solution (or solutions) and ensuring that the management plan will work. You are probably most familiar with P sources that originate from outside of the lake (external sources from the watershed) but recycling of P that has accumulated in the lakebed (internal sources) can be a primary and overlooked source. The solutions for these categories of sources are usually quite different and specific. For example\, watershed best management practices are appropriate for external sources\, while addressing lakebed P recycling with inactivants such as alum are best for internal sources. \nPlease join us for a webinar discussion why P management is important for your lake\, with specific topics to include:\n1) A successful approach to lake management (The 7 Key Steps)\n2) Impacts of P on water quality and property values\n3) Determining external vs. internal P sources\n4) Cost-effect solutions\n5) Use of alum to improve water quality when sediment P recycling is high \nQuestions?
