SUMMARY:Roots of Resilience Webinar: Fighting the EAB Impact on Wetlands
DESCRIPTION:Roots of Resilience: Fighting the EAB Impact on Wetlands\nMay 20  \n12:00PM-01:30PM \nEmerald ash borer (EAB) (Agrilus planipennis) is causing widespread mortality of black ash (Fraxinus nigra) trees in the western Great Lakes region\, threatening forest ecosystems and biodiversity. To assess the impacts\, researchers studied black ash wetlands in northern Minnesota\, documenting wildlife species\, including birds\, mammals\, and amphibians. Experimental simulations of EAB-related tree loss revealed significant changes in forest structure and hydrology\, influencing wildlife communities. Findings emphasize the need for management strategies that promote alternative tree species to maintain habitat complexity and support biodiversity. Integrating ecological\, hydrological\, and cultural perspectives will be key to conserving these vital ecosystems.

SUMMARY:Adapting With Virtual Fencing Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Adapting With Virtual Fencing Webinar\nMay 12 (Part 1) & May 19 (Part 2) \n06:00PM-07:00PM \nJoin Quivira Coalition and World Wildlife Fund for a two-part webinar series on virtual fencing on May 12 and 19. Virtual fencing is still a new and developing technology\, but for many ranchers\, it has transformed how they raise livestock while protecting and rejuvenating native grasslands and wildlife that rely on intact and healthy working lands. Join for one or both sessions. \nMay 12: Join Andrew Jakes\, a senior research scientist with the Wyoming Migration Initiative and Wyoming Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit\, and rancher Leo Barthelmess to learn about the connections between sustainable wildlife habitats and virtual fencing ranch management. \nMay 19: Interested in virtual fencing but don’t know which technology makes the most sense for your operation? Ask questions and hear from a panel of ranchers on different technologies available and what might be a best fit for you.

SUMMARY:Don't Move Firewood Emotional versus Objective Language Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Don’t Move Firewood Social Media Message Frame Testing: Emotional versus Objective Language\nMay 19  \n02:00PM-03:30PM  \n\n\nEffective communication on invasive species is crucial for generating awareness and reducing further anthropogenic spread of forest pest and pathogens like EAB. Message frames in invasion biology have evolved as outreach efforts shift away from using potentially problematic metaphors to more ethically conscious language. We at Don’t Move Firewood tested two types of socially responsible message frames on Facebook: one with values-based\, emotional and protective language against one with objective\, fact-based language to determine if there were any differences in engagement.

SUMMARY:Impacts and Management of Emerald Ash Borer Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Impacts and Management of Emerald Ash Borer Webinar\nMay 19  \n12:00PM-01:30PM  \nThe emerald ash borer has killed billions of ash trees in cities and forests across the US and Canada. Several ash species in our region inhabit different types of forests and play important ecological roles. The results of 20 years of monitoring the impacts of emerald ash borer on ash populations and forest ecosystems show the ways this invasive pest has changed our forests. Management actions can be used in situation-specific combinations to mitigate the impacts of EAB\, preserve ash species\, and restore forest function. \n
