SUMMARY:Watershed Restoration Volunteer Day
DESCRIPTION:When: Saturday\, September 30\, 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.\n\n\n\nWhere: Stroud Water Research Center\n\n\n\nWhat to bring/wear: Long pants\, long-sleeved shirt\, gloves\, a hat if sunny\, water and a snack.\n\n\n\n\nVolunteers will help measure trees and record data from an experiment this spring. You will be taught how to identify tree species. The purpose of the study is to see which method of using herbicide resulted in more tree regeneration. This study will directly lead to learning best management practices (BMPs) for regenerating forestlands around streams and wetlands. BMPs will be taught for suburban and rural areas\, including farms. \n\n\n\nThis study is part of a federal grant that resulted from the devastation that followed Hurricane Sandy. Hurricanes and other extreme water events teach us that we need our headwaters and small first order streams to absorb water and connect with the floodplain in order to reduce the force and rate of water discharge during storms. \n\n\n\nRSVP required! \n\n\n\nQuestions? Contact Calen Wylie. \n\n\n\nCan’t make this date? We have year-round volunteer opportunities!

Rock Pack promotes interdisciplinary watershed education by allowing students to conduct and design their own experiments and apply their knowledge to protect local watersheds. \n\n\n\nDuring this workshop\, participants will receive an overview of stream ecology\, geomorphology\, and animals as ecosystem engineers. Getting our boots in the water\, we’ll examine and identify aquatic macroinvertebrates that live within rock packs from a local stream and in the lab. We’ll also give you great tools\, teaching activities\, and ideas to incorporate the workshop content into your own classroom or educational programs! \n\n\n\nAt the workshop you will receive: \n\n\n\n\nRock Pack kit giveaways.\n\n\n\nTour of MSU’s ecology labs.\n\n\n\nHands-on experience deploying Rock Packs in a stream.\n\n\n\nTraining in macroinvertebrate identification.\n\n\n\nFun teaching techniques to use in your classroom and community.\n\n\n\nOne-on-one with the experts!\n\n\n\n\nREGISTER by Wednesday\, September 13! \n\n\n\nCome learn about the Rock Pack Network to study YOUR local streams.
