SUMMARY:MGLP: Shoreline Living Volume Two: Property owner experiences in lakefront conservation
DESCRIPTION:Register here \n \n\nThis presentation will introduce the second volume of the MGLP’s Living document. With over 90\,000 copies in circulation\, both versions of the MGLP’s Shoreline Living document are excellent resources for starting conversations about natural shorelines. These magazine-style publications contain articles highlighting families who live on natural shorelines and have taken a variety of steps to benefit themselves and their lakes. Beautiful photographs of each property accompany the articles\, where the families share their process in creating\, maintaining\, enjoying\, and protecting their natural shorelines. This presentation will provide an opportunity to hear directly from some of the featured property owners as they share their experiences in conservation.

SUMMARY:MGLP: Healthy Watersheds\, High-Quality Waters- A New program for protecting the wonderful waters of Wisconsin
DESCRIPTION:Register here \n \n\nWisconsin DNR seeks to protect Wisconsin’s wonderful waters and way of life. Not only is Wisconsin blessed with a landscape filled with water resources\, but those lakes\, rivers\, streams\, and wetlands also provide tremendous public health\, recreation\, and economic benefits. The Healthy Watersheds\, High-Quality Waters initiative is a first step towards greater balance between restoration and protection to conserve water resources and the values they provide. The overall goal is to keep 100% of the priority healthy watersheds and high-quality waters within them at or better than their current conditions through 2030. Modeling and assessment results\, geographic priorities\, partner feedback\, action plan\, and experiences from the first year of implementation will be shared.

SUMMARY:Invasive Mussel Collaborative hosts: How invasive mussels impact and are affected by North American ecosystems
DESCRIPTION:Want to delve a little deeper into the zebra and quagga mussel invasion? Try this webinar put on by the Invasive Mussel Collaborative. It includes two presentations: \nMussel squeeze: dissolved oxygen and temperature can “squeeze” zebra mussels out of invaded reservoirs by Rich Miller and Crysta Gantz with Portland State University\, Portland\, OR \nDreissena (zebra and quagga mussels) in the Great Lakes: what have we learned in 35 years of invasion by Alexander Karatayev with SUNY Buffalo State\, Buffalo\, NY \nThe webinar is free\, but registration is required. \n

SUMMARY:May 31 webinar - Update on wakes\, waves\, and propeller wash research from UMN's SAFL
DESCRIPTION:Register today for this webinar with Jeff Marr and Andy Riesgraf of the St. Anthony Falls Laboratory\, University of Minnesota for an update on this critically important research: recently completed\, in-process\, and future. \nThis free session is on May 31 from 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm\, but you must register in advance. Big thanks go to Minnesota Lakes and Rivers Advocates for hosting the session. \nJeff Forester\, Executive Director of Minnesota Lakes and Rivers Advocates said this about the upcoming webinar: \n“Boating season is upon us. Minnesotans\, as they have for generations\, will enjoy sun and water and fun. But there the similarity ends. Many of the new boats on the water bear no resemblance to your grandfathers fishing boat. \nThe boats now are larger and far more powerful. Where once boats were powered with 25 HP or maybe 50 HP motors and 40 knots was considered fast\, there are boats on the market now that go over 70 mph or have engines generating 400 hp or more. And there are more of them. \nIt is time to try to see what the impacts of our boats\, wakes\, prop thrust and boating habits are on lake ecology and wildlife. Minnesota Lakes and Rivers has been working the last few years to support funding for world class researchers to begin exploring these issues. \nWe wanted to provide an opportunity for you to learn more.  \nThis presentation by Jeff Marr will summarize completed comparative research on the size\, energy\, and power of boat-generated wake waves produced by a number of recreational boats under various modes of operation and data-informed guidance on recommend operational distances for enhanced wake watercraft. \nThe presentation will also share an update of ongoing research focusing on characterizing the propeller wash created by recreational boats and potential implications of propeller wash on lake health. \nFinally\, Jeff Marr will present our research plans for an upcoming research study\, pending funding by the State of Minnesota\, that will explore environmental impacts of boat-generated wave\, propeller wash and wind driven waves. \nThe presentation will allow time for questions and discussion. \nWe hope to see you there and enjoy the spring.
