Podcasts about invasives

This week, Frannie Preston, University of Kentucky Department of Forestry and Natural Resources - Extension, joins us to learn about invasive plants and how to monitor them. How they change, tracking them, and more! Later on, Dr. Ellen Crocker, also from the University of Kentucky Department of Forestry and Natural Resources - Extension, joins us for "What's Bugging My Tree" and this week the topic is Anthracnose, which is a fungal disease that causes dark lesions on leaves. It starts on the leaves and eventually gets worse over time. It is also worse in colder weather.

Killing invasives selectively, use of a Buckthorn Blaster, feeding birds, and tips for growing tomatoes

From the Mississippi River to Lake Michigan, Illinois' waters are incredible environmental and economic resources, supporting a diversity of plants and animals, providing drinking water for millions of people, and allowing for transportation and recreation. However, aquatic invasive species can threaten these resources. These organisms cause harm to native species and collectively costing humans millions of dollars annually in impacts and control.

There are more than 800 miles of Blue-Blazed Hiking Trails in Connecticut. Today we're doing our show from one of them. There are things out in the woods that might surprise you, and one of the guys walking down the trail to visit us today is our state archeologist, who's still uncovering the mysteries of Connecticut distant past. But we're also going to talk about the ecosystem of the trails and woods and about an unwelcome visitor, the emerald ash borer. We also hope to provides lots of good hiking tips and a few warnings about what to watch out for. So put on some [smack] bug spray and join us out in the woods.

durée : 00:04:40 - Avec sciences - par : Alexandre Morales - Une nouvelle étude publiée dans la revue Conservation Letters pointe un paradoxe de ces espèces exotiques envahissantes. Alors qu'elles exercent des pressions sur les écosystèmes dans lesquels elles ont été introduites, certaines de ces espèces sont aussi menacées dans leur région d'origine.

Send us a textThe US Fish and Wildlife Service decided to "manage" barred owls by shooting half a million of them over the next three decades. Jason, Rob, and Asher (along with the postal workers at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry) are upset about this plan for addressing the predicament of invasive species.

In this episode, I go over developing a stategy to tackle invaives. It's an overwhelming task however you can do this. You as a landowner or a contractor have the power to tackle this problem. You need to break down the infestation so you can compartmentalize each area and address each area accordingly. I hope you found this episode helpful in your land stewardship and conservation endeavors

The series is supported by Laois, Offaly, and Westmeath County Councils and the Heritage Council.

The last upload of chemical warfare I was not happy with. It was rushed and also there was some information I presented that was not entirely transparent. I deleted the old episode and created a new one with more facts, figures, and price crunching to help you make the best descsion which chemical to use for your habitat project such as invasive foilar control, hack n squirt, or basal bark spraying. Hope this is more informative. A Discalimer: You are an responsible adult. The label is the law. Ignorance is no excuse.

In this Episode, Colin is Joined by Jake Ehlinger owner of Habitat Solutions 360. Jake first talks about managing your timber in high deer density situations where it can be hard to keep diverse quality native habitat thriving with so many deer browsing on it constantly. He also talks about how he cuts on a property, to make it easy to maintain, and maximize space within a bedding area. Next, Jake talks about how he started planting food plots and how much he has learned. He talks about different planting methods he has used, how he has integrated cover crops into his food plots, and also the recent use of Plot Dr products from Harper Growing Solutions, to maximize his food plot yields. Colin then talks about his use of high-diversity food plot blends, what he has learned from them over the years, and how to always have plenty of different types of food plot plants on your property to help with drought and browse pressure. To wrap things up, Jake discusses some great key observations that he has made to create a good early-season strategy for getting on potential bucks in October. He also talks about the importance of taking advantage of cold fronts, and how key the weather can be during the early season.

Folks today is a rougher episode. I open my heart to express the potential I need to tap into for my farm and the county it resides in. I also tear into us, myself included, for not having a tighter grip on invasive species. We have sacrificed our native ecology for the norm. I am sick and tired of not seeing my fellow Americans getting serious about invasives, but I am also one to blame. This is a rant. It's pure frustration being let out and I hope it lights the fire under you to get to work with me.

It's not just desirable plants, insects and animals ready to spring forth into a new season, it's also the invasive species that don't belong here and have no natural predators, often hitchhiking their ways into our lives, lands, air and waters. Pulse editor Debra Fitzgerald talks with Sam Koyen, County of Door's invasive species coordinator, about the county's biggest invasive threats and what's being done to help mitigate their spread.

COVID-19's Lingering Toll On The Heart As new omicron-specific boosters against COVID-19 unroll in cities around the US, research is revealing more about the longterm consequences of even one infection with the SARS-CoV2 virus. Writing this week in Nature Medicine, a team of researchers from Germany describe finding long-lasting signs of heart disorders in the majority of recovered patients in their study group–even up to nearly a year later. FiveThirtyEight's Maggie Koerth joins Ira to describe the research and how it fits into what we're learning about the scope of Long Covid. Plus taking the temperature of the melting Thwaites Glacier, new insights into the genes of both immortal jellyfish and human astronauts, and a post-mortem of the world's first known amputation. Why Are Dead Fish Piling Up Across The San Francisco Bay? Thousands of dead fish are piling up across the Bay Area. From the concrete outer edges of Oakland's Lake Merritt to the sandy beaches of San Francisco's Fort Funston and the pebbled banks of Oyster Point in San Mateo County, the carcasses of fish likely poisoned by a harmful algal bloom — more commonly known as a red tide — are washing ashore. It's a mass-death event the San Francisco Bay hasn't seen the likes of in years, says Jon Rosenfield, senior scientist with environmental group San Francisco Baykeeper. “From a fish's point of view, this is a wildfire in the water,” he said. By SF Baykeeper's count, the number of fish dying off in the San Francisco Bay could easily exceed hundreds of thousands, and that, Rosenfield said, might even be a “low” estimate. His field investigator confirmed “easily tens of thousands of fish dead” in Lake Merritt alone. But Rosenfield cautioned, “What you see is just the hint of what's actually happening further beneath the water's surface and in places you're not getting to on the shoreline. So it's really an uncountable number.” It may be harmful to humans, too. An algal bloom of this size can cause skin irritation and respiratory problems, and the San Francisco Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board is advising people to avoid swimming, kayaking or other activities on the water until the bloom subsides. Read the full story at sciencefriday.com. As Temperatures Get Warmer, Fish Are At Risk Climate change is expected to have a big effect on a sensitive group of creatures: fish. A new study out of the University of Arkansas predicts that there is likely to be a six-fold increase in large fish mortality events between now and 2100, specifically in freshwater lakes in Minnesota and Wisconsin. Known as “summerkills” and “winterkills”, seasonal die-offs are a part of fishy nature, but have been happening at a greater frequency as temperatures increase. That's due to climate change-related factors like algal blooms, infectious disease, and oxygen deprivation. Joining Ira to talk about the future for freshwater fish is Simon Tye, PhD candidate in biology at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville.  As The World Decarbonizes, Sulfuric Acid May Be In Short Supply A move towards more alternative energy sources and away from fossil fuel production is a net positive for the world. But there's an unanticipated side effect—a possible global sulfuric acid supply shortage. Eighty percent of the world's sulfuric acid is the byproduct of fossil fuel production. Cutting back on coal, oil, and natural gas means producing less sulfur acid. That's important as sulfuric acid is critical to making fertilizer, as well as green technology like solar panels and batteries. Ira talks with Mark Maslin, professor of Earth System Science at University College London, about his latest research, which points to a looming sulfur shortage. The New G.O.A.T Of Park Systems Is An Actual Goat If you walk into a park, the odds are pretty high that you'll find an invasive plant species, like buckthorn, giant hogweed, or multiflora rose. These resilient plants can often grow uncontrollably and out-compete native species for resources, which has consequences for native wildlife that depend on other native plants. They can also be incredibly difficult to remove. That's why a growing number of parks across the United States are turning to unlikely helpers: goats. Conservation grazing is a practice in which livestock are used to maintain biodiversity. Because goats eat almost everything, they chow down on invasive plants and make them much easier to remove. Radio producer Rasha Aridi speaks with Hillary Steffes, the chief goat herder at Allegheny GoatScape in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, about using goats as a conservation tool. Then, Rasha takes a trip to Riverside Park in NYC to meet some goats, and talk with Marcus Caceres, a field supervisor at the Riverside Park Conservancy. Transcripts for each segment will be available the week after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.
