Our speaker for the Gathering will be Dr. Will Clements. He will discuss results from several large-scale restoration projects conducted in mining-polluted watersheds that measured responses of aquatic insects and brown trout to improvements in water quality and habitat. Results demonstrated that habitat restoration significantly increased brown trout populations, but had surprisingly little effect on aquatic insects, which responded primarily to improved water quality. Explanations for these differences will be discussed.
Dr. Clements spoke to our chapter via Zoom back in 2020 on this subject - it was a fantastic presentation - don't miss this one!
