SUMMARY:MGLP Lake Conservation Series: Disentangling the historical impacts of warming and fishing on exploited freshwater fish populations - October 13
DESCRIPTION:Climate warming is reshaping thermal habitats in inland lakes\, often reducing suitable conditions for cold- and cool-water species while expanding habitat for warm-water species. This shift raises an important management question: can redirecting recreational harvest pressure toward warm-water species help buffer climate-driven declines in vulnerable cooler-water fisheries? In this presentation\, Luoliang Xu will introduce this idea\, examine its management implications\, and discuss alternative science-based strategies for sustainably managing freshwater fisheries in a warming world. \nRegister here for this webinar.

SUMMARY:MGLP Lake Conservation Series: Lake weeds or plant communities? Some thoughts on EWM management\, control prioritization\, and new work to nurture care and appreciation - October 20
DESCRIPTION:This presentation will start with some findings about Eurasian watermilfoil management and management prioritization – in that work\, we wanted to better understand and provide context to some of the effects of whole lake herbicide treatments we observed in survey data. From there\, we developed a model to predict lakes likely to experience future EWM introductions and lakes likely able to support dense populations. We hope that information could help guide smart prevention and smart management. More recently\, we are interested in expanding the way folks are able to think and talk about plant communities – by naming\, narrating\, and celebrating unique community assemblages\, we hope eventually to enable people to appreciate\, connect to\, and experience part of the natural world that usually remains hidden. \nRegister here for this event.

SUMMARY:MGLP Lake Conservation Series: Protecting Land for Water Quality – Watershed-Based Land Conservation Strategies - October 27
DESCRIPTION:Nonpoint source (NPS) pollution\, or polluted runoff\, is the predominant cause of water quality problems in the United States. Land protection can play a critical role in protecting waters by maintaining forests\, riparian buffers\, and other critical natural areas that filter polluted runoff. Protected lands also help ensure the durability of water quality restoration by preventing new pollutant loads. Over the last several years the USEPA has worked to highlight the role of land protection as a NPS management strategy and strengthen partnership opportunities between clean water programs and land conservation community. In this webinar Steve Epting will spotlight this work and how its relevance to protecting lake ecosystem health. \nRegister here for this event.
