SUMMARY:Native Pollinator Ecology and Biology and other Grassland Species of Concern
DESCRIPTION:This workshop includes an overview of native resident and migrating pollinators of the midwest and their habitat needs\, highlighting the biology and ecological relationships of the rusty patched bumblebee\, monarch\, Karner blue\, and other Midwestern/Great Lakes region species of concern including grassland birds. \nTOPIC 1: Native bees – Including the importance and diversity of species\, habitat needs\, life history overview and status of species of concern highlighting RPBB.\nEd Spevak\, Ph.D.\, Curator of Invertebrates\, St. Louis Zoo and Director\, Center for Native Pollinator Conservation \nTOPIC 2: Native Lepidoptera – Including the importance and diversity of species\, habitat needs\, life history overview\, and status of species of concern.\nAnna Hess\, Ph.D.\, Deputy Director\, USGS\, Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center \nTOPIC 3: Maximizing Benefits for Grassland Wildlife on USFWS Lands.\nKelly VanBeek\, Wildlife Biologist-Migratory Bird Program\, USFWS\nBen Walker\, Wildlife Biologist\, USFWS\, Glacial Ridge & Rydell National Wildlife Refuges\, MN \nInfo here.

SUMMARY:Building Scientific Understanding to Guide Native Pollinator Habitat Restoration Practices
DESCRIPTION:This workshop aims to increase restoration practitioners’ understanding of the scientific foundations that guide native habitat restoration and management. This includes plant-pollinator interdependency and long-term ecosystem sustainability; why holistic approaches to habitat management are important to biodiversity; the significance of native and invasive plant species for pollinators/wildlife and to restoration outcomes; and how to translate knowledge gained from research into practical management actions. \nTOPIC 1: Establishing diverse prairie restorations.\nBecky Barak\, Ph.D.\, Conservation Scientist\, Chicago Botanic Garden and Northwestern University \nTOPIC 2: Understanding the cascading impacts of invasive plants and why natives are part of the solution.\nDawn Slack\, Director of Stewardship\, The Nature Conservancy and Chair for the Invasive Plant Advisory Committee to the Invasive Species Council \nTOPIC 3: The implications from current research on managing monarch and other native pollinator habitat.\nNathan Haan\, Ph.D.\, Post-Doctoral Research Associate\, Landis Lab\, Michigan State University \nInfo here.
