The climate is changing, and it is impacting forests in many ways. The magnitude of continued accelerated change requires adaptation strategies aim to maintain healthy and productive forests. As forests are placed under additional stress, it is also critical that we consider how wildlife may respond to a shifting climate and important forest habitats that they depend on.
Current scientific knowledge related to algal blooms will be highlighted. Research and outreach leaders will present findings from recent studies and identify important areas of uncertainty. Specific topics will include: Collaborations and partnerships critical for improving water quality Understanding lag times and soil phosphorus dynamics The latest in edge-of-field research and best management practice Learn more […]
Land use decisions significantly affect soil loss and runoff. The effect is pronounced in the three-state Driftless Area. Managed grazing and long-term ground cover are strong mitigators of erosion, but can those land use decisions have positive financial outcomes?
The Pasture and Grazing Management webinars will focus on pasture and grazing management practices for sheep and goat producers.
