What are ephemeral ponds, and why are they important to amphibians and other critters?
Join Keir Wefferling to learn what these non-vascular plants, like mosses, liverworts, and hornworts, can tell us about the health of Wisconsin peatlands.
In Wisconsin, we owe much of our modern landscape of wetlands, ponds, lakes, streams, and rivers to the last ice age when a vast ice sheet reshaped the land, and ultimately reorganized surface and groundwater systems.
This presentation will demonstrate ways to get the most out of chemical control by taking advantage of herbicide-additive systems and detail the essentials of target plant anatomy and physiology as they relate to invasive species suppression.
