SUMMARY:Road Salt-focused Education Trip on Lake Champlain for Municipal Staff and Local Leaders
DESCRIPTION:Date/Time: Wednesday\, July 15\, from 3–5 PM. \nLocation: 3 College St\, Burlington\, VT (on the south side of the Rubenstein Ecosystem Sciences/ECHO building). Please note that parking there requires an hourly payment. \nCost: $30 for municipal leaders; free for road foremen \nLake Champlain Sea Grant is hosting a unique trip aboard the R/V Marcelle Melosira for municipal staff and board members. The trip is designed to bring together municipal road foremen and crews with selectboard and conservation commission members and other community leaders for an exchange of knowledge related to sustainable winter road salting practices. We will also talk about water quality and how road salt can impact life in streams and lakes.  \nEach participant is encouraged to bring along a sample of water from a local stream\, pond\, or lake near where they live. During the excursion on Lake Champlain\, each person will test their water sample to assess its electrical conductivity. This can be used to estimate how much chloride is in the water\, much of which comes from road salt spread in the winter months. Participants will also sample from Lake Champlain and measure its electrical conductivity\, and will have the option to collect zooplankton (tiny organisms that live suspended in the water).  \nRegistration is on a first-come\, first-served basis. All participants must be in close-toed shoes to board the boat. \nClick here to register\n— \nIf you require an accommodation related to a disability\, please contact Accessibility Services at least 2 weeks prior to your selected date by emailing access@uvm.edu and copying seagrant@uvm.edu\, or calling (802) 656-7753. \nCancellations must be made more than 1 week before the trip so we can allow someone from the waitlist to participate. Email cancellations to seagrant@uvm.edu. \nIf the boat is not able to sail due to weather conditions and the event is canceled\, you will be notified via email. The Staff and boat Captain will do their best to make a decision within 12 hours of the trip.

SUMMARY:Plastic Paradox
DESCRIPTION:Plastic provides a real paradox in the world of material science. It is incredibly strong\, but without the mass that similar strength materials usually possess. In addition\, it is very moldable and can be contorted into a myriad of commonplace\, super-utilitarian items. The versatility and durability of plastic allow it to be used in place of a myriad of natural materials\, but these same features make it an environmental bane. This webinar will explore this paradox and what it means for waters. \nClick here to register. \nPresenter: Sherri (Sam) Mason\, director\, Gannon University Project NePTWNE

SUMMARY:Lake Champlain Environmental Sensitivity Index Mapping
DESCRIPTION:Environmental Sensitivity Index (ESI) maps provide a concise summary of coastal resources that face potential risk in the event of an oil or chemical spill nearby. Incident response managers use these maps from a wide range of federal and state agencies to identify vulnerable coastal locations and guide decision-making about where and how to prioritize emergency response and restoration activities. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has established guidance and developed a portal for publishing nationally consistent ESI maps. The Lake Champlain Basin Program\, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency\, and U.S. Geological Survey recognize the need to create these maps for the 587 miles of Lake Champlain shoreline so that protection priorities and response strategies can be identified\, allowing rapid response in the case of an oil or chemical spill. This presentation will provide an overview of the Lake Champlain Environmental Sensitivity Index Mapping. \nClick here to register. \nPresenter: Ben Fisher\, physical scientist\, U.S. Geological Survey New York Water Science Center

SUMMARY:Research Seminar: Status of Round Goby in Eastern North America: Implications for Lake Champlain
DESCRIPTION:Lake Champlain Sea Grant and the UVM Water Resources Institute are pleased to announce a Fall 2026 Research Seminar Series. This series of five seminars will be held on select Mondays from 12–1 PM throughout the semester\, with an approximately 30–40-minute presentation followed by 20-minutes for questions. Each presentation will be recorded and made available on our website after the event. \n9/21 (Remote via Teams) – Scott George \, Status of Round Goby in Eastern North America: Implications for Lake Champlain. Join online here. \nScott George is a biologist in the Watersheds Research Section of the USGS New York Water Science Center in Troy\, NY. He completed a master’s degree at the State University at Albany (SUNY) in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology on the impact of severe flooding on lotic biota. Scott’s current research is aimed at better understanding riverine fish\, benthic macroinvertebrate\, and periphyton communities and the disturbances that impact them. Specific ongoing projects include monitoring the expansion of Round Goby towards the Hudson River using environmental DNA and other methods\, studying the recovery of fish assemblages in acid-impacted Catskill Mountain streams\, and evaluating the toxicity of sediments to benthic macroinvertebrates in Great Lakes Areas of Concern.

SUMMARY:Research Seminar: Bridging the Gaps of Vermont’s Emergency Response Capacity
DESCRIPTION:Lake Champlain Sea Grant and the UVM Water Resources Institute are pleased to announce a Fall 2026 Research Seminar Series. This series of five seminars will be held on select Mondays from 12–1 PM throughout the semester\, with an approximately 30–40-minute presentation followed by 20-minutes for questions. Each presentation will be recorded and made available on our website after the event. \n10/19 (Remote via Teams) - Rodrigo Soares \, Bridging the Gaps of Vermont’s Emergency Response Capacity. Join online here.  \nRodrigo Soares is a postdoctoral associate in the UVM Plant and Soil Science Department. He earned his PhD in strategic communication and a masters in mass communication from the University of Central Florida (UCF). Soares has 15 years of experience as a leading practitioner in the communication field\, and seven years of applied research in risk and crisis communication. His work has analyzed disease outbreaks and pandemics such as the Zika virus in Brazil and COVID19\, through a message design perspective. He also tested the adequacy of crisis communication theories in explaining the failures of institutions facing repeated crises\, expanding the understanding of post-crisis learning. His research provides both theoretical advancements and practical applications to the field of risk and crisis communication.

SUMMARY:Research Seminar: Assessing Mechanisms of Phosphorus Removal at a Lake Champlain Basin Wastewater Treatment Plant
DESCRIPTION:Lake Champlain Sea Grant and the UVM Water Resources Institute are pleased to announce a Fall 2026 Research Seminar Series. This series of five seminars will be held on select Mondays from 12–1 PM throughout the semester\, with an approximately 30–40-minute presentation followed by 20-minutes for questions. Each presentation will be recorded and made available on our website after the event. \n11/2 (Hybrid: Teams/Davis Center Room 413) - Matt Scarborough\, Assessing Mechanisms of Phosphorus Removal at a Lake Champlain Basin Wastewater Treatment Plant. Join online here. \nDr. Scarborough is an Associate Professor in UVM’s Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering. His research focuses on the application of microbiomes to protect the natural environment and public health. His currently focuses on the management of organic wastes with the goal of harnessing reactor microbiomes to convert renewable feedstocks to valuable products and reducing greenhouse gas emissions from landfills with soil microbiomes. Dr. Scarborough earned his Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin – Madison\, where he worked as part of the Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center.
