SUMMARY:Great Lakes Seminar Series: Jenan Kharbush
DESCRIPTION:“Nitrogen availability” refers to the amounts of biologically usable nitrogen forms relative to demand by the biological community. In cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (CyanoHABs) dominated by the non-diazotrophic cyanobacteria Microcystis aeruginosa\, nitrogen availability is critical for the production of the nitrogen-rich toxin microcystin\, and may also play a role in shaping M. aeruginosa strain composition and relative abundance of toxic and non-toxic strains. During the annual CyanoHAB in Western Lake Erie\, both the dominant form of nitrogen (organic vs. inorganic) and… (see more on our website) \nEvent website: https://ciglr.seas.umich.edu/event/11062025-jenan-kharbush/\nContact: Margaret Throckmorton\, throckmj@umich.edu

SUMMARY:Great Lakes Seminar Series: Adam Reimer
DESCRIPTION:Achieving conservation aims in the Great Lakes region\, including protecting water quality\, enhancing wildlife habitat\, and building community resilience\, often relies on voluntary actions by farmers\, ranchers\, and rural landowners. Numerous agencies\, organizations\, and policies support farmer adoption of soil health practices\, improved nutrient management\, and managed tile drainage. \nDespite decades of effort\, adoption of key practices has lagged what is needed to reach larger conservation goals. National Wildlife Federation has worked with producers and conservation professionals for over a decade to improve outreach and conservation communications to reach new audiences and expand adoption of key practices. \nNWF programs apply insights from social and behavioral science to increase organizational capacity and identify novel strategies for increasing conservation adoption. This presentation will share key insights from NWF programs and outline research and extension needs to scale up adoption in the Great Lakes region. \nEvent website: https://ciglr.seas.umich.edu/event/10222025_adam_reimer/\nContact: Margaret Throckmorton\, throckmj@umich.du
