What’s the damage? Ecology and Effects of Invasive European Frog-bit in the St. Marys River

2024-02-07T14:00:00Z 2024-02-07T15:00:00Z What’s the damage? Ecology and Effects of Invasive European Frog-bit in the St. Marys River

European frog-bit was first detected in southeast Michigan in 1996 and has since spread along the coastal areas of lakes Erie, Huron and Michigan and to some inland lakes. Kevin Kapuscinski, associate professor and assistant director of research at Lake Superior State University's Center for Freshwater Research and Education, has been studying the aquatic invasive plant and its effects on native ecosystems and water quality since 2019. He will share what’s been learned about plant reproduction, removal efforts and impacts based on research in the St. Marys River in the Upper Peninsula.

After registering, you will receive an email from "EGLE Outreach" with a link for you to use to join the webinar.

Individuals needing language assistance or accommodations for effective participation should contact Joel Roseberry, roseberryj@michigan.gov by January 26 to request language, mobility, visual, hearing, translation, and/or other assistance.
