Please join us for a webinar hosted by the Invasive Mussel Collaborative to discuss the development of invasive mussel risk models informed by watercraft inspection and boater movement data. This webinar will feature the ARMOR model, built in New York to streamline the process of boat inspections for invasive species management, and a predictive model for Minnesota assessing the likelihood of overland transport of invasive mussels on recreational boats.

Presenters will include:
  • Cathy McGlynn and John Marino, New York State Department of Environmental Conservation
  • Marc Frischer, University of Georgia; Sandra Nierzwicki-Bauer and Jeremy Farrell, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
  • Nick Phelps, University of Minnesota
 
The Invasive Mussel Collaborative is working to advance scientifically sound technology for invasive mussel control to produce measurable ecological and economic benefits. The Collaborative provides a framework for communication and coordination, identifying the needs and objectives of resource managers, prioritizing supporting science, developing communication strategies, and aligning science and management goals into a common agenda.
