    SDG 6 | Understanding Herbicide Effects on Aquatic Biodiversity | Luke Huffman

    What's fluoroproxen benzyl and why should we care about its effect on biodiversity? Thanks for joining us for another episode of highlighting change makers and their inspirational work towards the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In this episode: What’s the impact of fluoroproxen benzyl on plant biodiversity and invertebrates? How does Luke’s research help us understand the unintended effects of herbicide applications and managing aquatic plants? How is Wisconsin Water Week a platform for sharing research and collaborating on aquatic plant management? Hear from Luke Huffman - a PhD student at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Luke dives into his research on the effects of fluoroproxen benzyl applications on non-target biodiversity of macrophytes and invertebrates. This herbicide is used to control the invasive Eurasian water milfoil, but Luke's focus was to understand its impact on native aquatic plants and invertebrates. Initial results show a significant increase in plant biodiversity after herbicide treatment, with no significant impacts on invertebrates. His research has broad implications for government entities, lake associations, and anyone managing aquatic plants.

    SDG 6 | Revising Protocols for Effective Grass Carp Removal | Bob Mapes

    What’s the only invasive carp species reproducing in the Great Lakes? Thanks for joining us for another episode of highlighting change makers and their inspirational work towards the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In this episode: Why worry about the presence of grass carp in the Great Lakes? What is electrofishing, and how does it combat invasive species? Revising protocols for effective grass carp removal Hear from Bob Mapes - a Grass Carp Strike Team Crew Leader for the University of Toledo. Bob talks about the grass carp removal project, aimed at eradicating the invasive grass carp species in the Great Lakes. The primary control method is electrofishing, where electricity immobilizes the fish for capture. Research shows that about 90% of grass carp captures occur within the first 17 minutes of electrofishing, leading to a protocol change that shortens the electrofishing time from 30 minutes to 22 minutes.
