Make Your Efforts Count: Leveraging iMapInvasives to Record Water Chestnut Pulls
June 28, 2021 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Monday, June 28th
1 pm-2 pm
Water chestnut is popping up across the state and it’s time to start pulling – and to record those pulls in iMap!
Join NYSDEC, the PRISM network, and iMap in our statewide effort to track Water Chestnut (Trapa natans) and the many efforts to combat this aquatic invasive species that threatens New York waters!
Experts from NYSDEC and the PRISM network will discuss the biology of water chestnut (including a new species that could threaten our waterways!), what you can do to protect NYS waterbodies, and most importantly: how to record water chestnut pulls as treatment records in iMapInvasives. We will discuss the key info that needs to be recorded and offer tips on how to do so. Standardized data collection will help us assess the effectiveness of water chestnut pulls over time and allow us to quantify the hard work from all our partners across the state!
