SUMMARY:Webinar: Impact of Freshwaster HABs on Recreational Beneficial Uses
DESCRIPTION:The California Lake Management Society is hosting this free webinar focusing on freshwater harmful algal blooms (FHABs). \nFHABs impact water quality across California. Since 2016\, the State Water Resources Control Board’s FHABs Program has provided resources to assess the risk of FHABs to recreational beneficial uses. In September 2019\, AB 834 formally established the FHABs Program within the Water Board. Dr. Bouma-Gregson will provide an overview of FHABs in California and the Water Board’s FHABs Program. Additionally\, he will address new elements to the program including an updated interactive web-map\, toxic algal mat signs and advisories\, and the upcoming monitoring strategy report. \nHow to Join:\nJoin by phone: 872-240-3212\nAccess code: 721-908-493\nClick HERE to join online

SUMMARY:Webinar: Rising Water Levels and Impacts on Inland Lakes
DESCRIPTION:Recent news across the Great Lakes States has been about high water levels.  Water levels on each of the Great Lakes started 2020 higher than they started in 2019.  In addition\, Lakes Michigan and Huron have reached monthly mean record high levels this year. While this has captured the attention of the media and all levels of government\, lakes of all types\, including inland lakes\, are experiencing some degree of water level fluctuation in response to precipitation cycles. Learn about the current status of Great Lakes high water levels and how inland lakes are impacted from Tip of the Mitt Watershed Council policy director\, Jennifer McKay. Topics covered during the webinar will include best management practices for shoreline protection and advice to ensure your septic system is functioning properly and how to protect your drinking water during periods of high water. Jennifer McKay joined Tip of the Mitt Watershed Council in May of 2005. As Policy Director\, Jennifer is responsible for federal\, Great Lakes Basin wide\, state\, and local policy and advocacy to improve the level of protection for our water resources. She has been appointed to the Great Lakes Commission and the Michigan Underground Storage Tank Authority by Governor Gretchen Whitmer.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Trophic interrogation of Michigan inland lake communities
DESCRIPTION:Top to bottom trophic interrogation of Michigan inland lake communities using eDNA metabarcoding \nCharacterization of freshwater aquatic animal and plant communities across trophic levels\, particularly detection of low abundance species\, including threatened and endangered and aquatic invasive species (AIS)\, is critical for informing management decisions. Water samples (N=953) from 22 inland lakes in Michigan were collected and eDNAs were extracted and used to amplify regions of the 16S and 12S rRNA loci (vertebrates) and rbcL (plants). Samples were sequenced on an Illumina HiSeq. Species were identified by comparing the eDNA sequence data to a Michigan vertebrate and plant reference sequence databases. Measures of fish diversity and site occupancy based on eDNA metabarcoding were compared to estimates based on traditional sampling methods used in fish community surveys. Estimates of fish species total number\, relative abundance\, and community composition and diversity (Shannon index) derived from eDNA metabarcoding were comparable with estimates derived from traditional gear types used in fisheries assessments. Relative species metabarcode sequence abundance was correlated to species biomass and relative abundance. eDNA metabarcoding identified more species generally than did traditional gear\, particularly low abundance species including AIS. Species accumulation curves demonstrated that more fish species were added per additional water sample interrogated than was the case for traditional gear. AIS fish species richness was associated with lake area and connectivity to other water bodies. Heat maps characterized spatial heterogeneity in fish and plant species richness and distribution of AIS within lakes. Plant species were represented by aquatic\, wetland and terrestrial vascular plants and algae. Collectively\, results demonstrate that eDNA metabarcoding is amenable to monitoring aquatic community diversity\, species relative biomass\, as well as early AIS detection.

DESCRIPTION:  \nWorld Water Day\, held on 22 March every year since 1993\, is an annual United Nations Observance focusing on the importance of freshwater. \nThe theme of World Water Day 2020 is water and climate change – and how the two are inextricably linked. For those of us who live\, work or play on lakes\, we are already seeing the impacts of climate change\, from rising water temperatures\, loss of winter ice cover\, changes in lake stratification\, increased evaporation\, and more extreme weather events\, including droughts and intense rainstorms. Climate change is further complicating already challenging lake protection and restoration efforts\, from managing harmful algal blooms (HABs) to preventing and controlling invasive species. \nWorld Water Day 2020: Water and Climate Change

SUMMARY:Coastal Resilience in the Great Lakes Region
DESCRIPTION:A live webcast will be streamed at 2:30 PM EST at www.eesi.org/livecast (wireless connection permitting) \nThe Environmental and Energy Study Institute (EESI) invites you to a briefing on the actions being taken to manage increasing temperatures\, flooding\, and other coastal hazards impacting communities and ecosystems in the Great Lakes region. This briefing will showcase nature-based solutions for climate adaptation in rural and urban settings\, and show how cutting-edge technology and traditional practices can be used to create resilient communities. \nThe panelists will describe the collaborative process between federal\, state\, and local stakeholders in collecting\, sharing\, and acting on scientific data to inform policy decisions around adaptation and help communities define and achieve their resilience goals. These projects can serve as a model for other regions experiencing similar issues. \nSpeakers\nBeth Gibbons\nExecutive Director\, American Society of Adaptation Professionals (ASAP) \nRob Croll\nPolicy Analyst/Climate Change Program Coordinator\, Great Lakes Indian Fish & Wildlife Commission (GLIFWC) \nScudder Mackey\nChief\, Office of Coastal Management\, Ohio Department of Natural Resources \nBrody Stapel\nPresident\, Edge Dairy Farmer Cooperative\, Co-owner\, Double Dutch Dairy \nBeth Gibbons of the American Society of Adaptation Professionals will discuss efforts supporting urban areas in identifying challenges—and responses—arising from climate change. She will focus her talk on adaptation within Detroit’s agricultural\, tourism\, and real estate sectors. \nRob Croll of Great Lakes Indian Fish & Wildlife Commission will discuss GLIFWC’s work to understand how climate change is impacting off-reservation communities and ecosystems critical to its member Ojibwe tribes\, and tools used to develop comprehensive plans to manage these impacts in culturally appropriate ways. \nScudder Mackey of the Ohio Department of Natural Resources will discuss projects resulting from the Great Lakes Coastal Assembly\, a collaborative effort between NGOs and international\, federal\, and state agencies to protect and restore coastal wetlands across the Great Lakes region. \nBrody Stapel of Edge Dairy Farmer Cooperative will discuss economic and environmental challenges to farming in Wisconsin and climate-smart agricultural practices on his farm and among members of the Dairy Strong Sustainability Alliance. \nThe Great Lakes region faces a unique set of challenges\, yet solutions developed here can be borrowed\, adapted\, and used by districts and states around the country to increase ecosystem\, community\, and sectoral resilience to the impacts of climate change. \nThis event is free and open to the public. Please RSVP to expedite check-in.

SUMMARY:Early Detection of Algal Blooms in US Freshwater Systems: CyAN Mobile Application
DESCRIPTION:Cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (HABs)\, which can appear in water bodies across the country\, are an indicator of poor water quality and can potentially cause serious environmental and human and aquatic health effects. Historically\, monitoring these HABs has been labor intensive and limited due to cost\, time\, and logistical constraints. EPA developed the Cyanobacteria Assessment Network Mobile Application (CyAN app) to help local and state water quality managers make faster and better-informed management decisions related to cyanobacterial blooms. It provides an easy to use\, customizable interface for accessing algal bloom satellite data for over 2\,000 of the largest lakes and reservoirs in the United States. \nCyAN app is free and available for download on Google Play™. It is designed for use on Android™ devices and is compatible with versions 4.2-9.0 (API levels 18-26). It is currently being developed as a web-based app\, which will be compatible with most devices. \n1. Overview Presentation and Q&A Session (2:00-2:30 pm ET). This portion of the webinar will provide a general overview of the app including what it is used for\, why and how it was developed\, and who it was designed for\, as well as state case studies from their beta testing of the CyAN app. The research that led to the development of the app was conducted in collaboration with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)\, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)\, and U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) through the CyAN Project. \n2. Step-by-Step Training and Q&A Session (2:30-3:30 pm ET). The second half of the webinar will be a step-by-step tutorial on how to use the CyAN app. We will walk through example scenarios and show you how to make fast and efficient initial assessments across water bodies that are roughly one square kilometer or greater.
