Anticipating the Hydrologic Consequences of Emerald Ash Borer Invasion in Tribal Forested Wetlands

Angela Waupochick, PhD student, UW–Madison Department of Forest and Wildlife Ecology. Tribal communities maintain significant landholdings, including black ash–dominated forested wetlands. These systems have not been a priority for management, but anticipated mortality induced by emerald ash borer has prompted tribal managers to seek strategies and prioritize areas for mitigation. Waupochick’s tribal-scale research aims to provide direction for tribal managers. Register by April 3.
