HHL loves #benthicinvertebrates! Benthic invertebrates can capture the health status of a #freshwaterecosystem based on who is there, and where we find them. Let’s take a closer look at one of member of the community, the Hepta-genius #Heptageniidae! loom.ly/0ru-gVM

Invasive species Phragmites australis have overwhelmed #localecosystems. We still have much to understand about how to live in relationship with them. Dr. Courtney Robichaud addressed #Phragmites removal during their PhD at the #UniversityofWaterloo loom.ly/lTYjr7U

A challenge to #watershed prosperity is the presence of the invasive species, #Phragmites australis. Research led by Ryan Graham surveyed drains in #WindsorEssex to explore drain ecosystems and #Phragmites management. Read more in the FERN newsletter! loom.ly/JalbROA
