SUMMARY:North Central Region Water Network Webinar - Multistate Water Work in Action
DESCRIPTION:The North Central Region Water Network is celebrating the 100th edition of The Current Webinar Series! To celebrate this milestone they will showcase several examples of multistate water work that are expanding the scope and positive impact of programs through multistate partnerships. This will include: \n\nThe Confluence for Watershed Leaders program\nThe Conservation Drainage Network\, and\nThe upcoming North Central Agriculture and Climate Conference\n\n

SUMMARY:Iowa Learning Farms Webinar: Understanding Cereal Rye N Cycling Benefits and Risks
DESCRIPTION:This Iowa Learning Farms (ILF) conservation webinar will feature Richard Roth\, assistant professor and extension nitrogen education specialist\, Iowa State University. His research and extension program at Iowa State University focuses on engineering and optimizing nitrogen and sulfur management strategies to improve the efficiency and environmental sustainability of cropping systems in the Midwest. \nRoth will provide an overview of cereal rye cover crop systems and discuss how adopting cereal rye influences nitrogen cycling and potential subsequent impacts on growing crops. He will also introduce and highlight some management options to help overcome potential risks from the impacts of cereal rye on nitrogen cycling. \n“Cereal rye is excellent at scavenging nitrogen from the soil profile\, but not great at returning that nitrogen to the soil in a plant available form for growing crops\,” said Roth. “Cover crops\, specifically cereal rye\, are one of the most effective tools in a farmer’s toolbox to help improve soil health and minimize nutrient losses from their fields\, but understanding potential risks associated with cover crop adoption is key to success in these systems. I hope that participants learn the potential risks associated with cereal rye but also gain an understanding that shifts in management can be made to help overcome the risk.”

SUMMARY:Webinar: Ruination to Restoration to Revitalization: The Story of a Great Lakes Area of Concern
DESCRIPTION:This Water Webinar will focus on the restoration of Muskegon Lake and its wetlands in Michigan. The presentation will cover water quality\, ecosystem restoration\, and socioeconomics. Muskegon Lake is a coastal river mouth lake with a history of environmental issues. Many restoration efforts reconnecting wetlands have improved water quality and lake habitat. A wetland restoration project reduced phosphorus concentrations from over 0.8 ppm (mg/L) to 0.03 ppm (mg/L)\, wow!  Research efforts provided a sound basis for restoration design and implementation.  These restoration efforts also showed a 5.8:1 return on investment with $1 billion in increased in shoreline development. The region experienced unexpected issues about public access and “blue gentrification.” A water [success!] story from which we all can learn here in Arkansas and across the USA. \nSPEAKERS: Dr. Alan Steinman\, PhD\, Allen and Helen Hunting Research Professor\, Robert B. Annis Water Resources Institute\, Grand Valley State University\, Allendale\, Michigan
