SUMMARY:On thin ice: Are lakes feeling the heat?
DESCRIPTION:Our planet is experiencing accelerated climate warming\, with dramatic consequences not only on lake ecology but also on the ecosystem services we rely on from our freshwater resources. Lakes with seasonal ice cover\, which represent more than half of the world’s lakes\, are especially sensitive to a changing climate\, as ice cover is a strong determinant of lake ecosystem functioning. Lakes are losing ice cover at unprecedented rates. On average\, ice duration is shorter by 17 days per century. However\, in the past 25 years\, lake ice loss is 6 times faster\, with some lakes not freezing every winter. By the end of the century\, over 200\,000 lakes may no longer regularly freeze and almost 6\,000 lakes may permanently lose ice cover with climate warming. With reduced ice cover\, lakes may stratify earlier which can lead to elevated water temperatures\, primary production\, and the likelihood of algal blooms\, some of which may be toxic. Mitigation of greenhouse gases is essential to preserving this ecological\, cultural\, and economically important resource. \nInfo here.

SUMMARY:Wisconsin Lakes and Rivers Convention
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the Wisconsin Lakes and Rivers Convention website! Our theme for your 2023 gathering is “Building Trust Around Water Together”. \nTrust is an important part of our everyday lives. We usually have trust in our family members\, friends\, neighbors\, health care professionals\, teachers\, and so many others in our communities. Trust is something that is earned and is also something that can be lost. \nDuring this event\, we invite you to build new relationships with individuals\, groups\, businesses\, and organizations. Let’s cultivate trust together so we can better collaborate and cooperate around the lakes\, in our watersheds\, and across Wisconsin. We also invite you to explore Wisconsin’s unique Public Trust Doctrine\, based on our state’s constitutional provision “that navigable waters are held in trust by the state for the benefit of the public. \nThis convention is part of Wisconsin Water Week\, and brought to you by the Wisconsin Lakes and Rivers Partnership. \nInfo here.

SUMMARY:Ventenata Identification\, Impacts\, and Management Options
DESCRIPTION:Ventenata (Ventenata dubia) is one of the most recent troublesome invasive plant species to affect range\, pasture\, and wild lands of the Intermountain Pacific Northwest and Northern Great Plains of the U.S. This presentation will cover biology\, ecology\, and management of ventenata. Grass identification can be difficult\, and this presentation will also discuss how to identify ventenata relative to other non-native annual grasses that are problematic on western range and wild lands. In areas where ventenata is just beginning to invade\, identification is critical for early detection and rapid response. \nInfo here.

SUMMARY:Monitoring and Assessment Data Collection and Applications for Tribal Wetland Programs
DESCRIPTION:For nearly three decades\, the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes’ [CSKT] wetland conservation program has utilized a combination of wetland-focused Tribal Ordinances\, innovative partnerships with outside agencies and non-profits\, and EPA Wetland Program Development Grants to monitor\, preserve\, and restore wetlands on the Flathead Reservation. Today\, CSKT’s wetlands are threatened by a rapid increase in local development and the effects of climate change. By analyzing years of functional assessment data and aerial imagery to better understand the trends of each watershed\, CSKT now seeks to update their Wetland Conservation Plan for the next decade. This presentation will explain the tools used by CSKT and history of the program\, with a particular focus on developing their new Wetland Conservation Plan.\n\n\nThe Fond du Lac Reservation began developing its Wetland Program in late 1998\, even before the EPA had developed the Core Elements for Wetland Programs. Since then\, Fond du Lac has achieved the goal of developing each of the core elements\, most recently with the 2020 approval of its Wetland Water Quality Standards. This presentation will cover some key elements to consider in building a Wetland Program from the ground up\, including the “four knows” of this development.\n\nInfo here.
