2022 WAPOA AIS Roundtable

Tom Watson  twatson@iphouse.com

Join us for a morning of exciting research updates with scientists from the Minnesota Aquatic Invasive Species Research Center.

Camp Knutson

This year's event will return as an in-person event at scenic Camp Knutson on Big Trout Lake. We are also striving to configure the event to support fully online participation for guests unable to travel to Camp Knutson. If you would like to join this event virtually, please note this in an email to event organizer, Tom Watson (twatson@iphouse.com ), so that we can gauge interest and plan accordingly. We have an great line up of researchers from the University of Minnesota's Aquatic Invasive Species Research Center (MAISRC) who will be sharing the latest updates from their research into novel methods for AIS detection, impacts of zebra mussels to walleye populations, and how hybrid cattails could be managed to improve nearshore habitat.
