UM Biological Station Grant to Track Aquatic Invasive Species

University of Montana researchers are getting some help as they watch Flathead Lake for aquatic invasive species (AIS).

A grant from NASA will enable researchers at the Flathead Lake Biological Station (FLBS) to launch a new project enabling officials to predict the spread of aquatic invasive species through remote sensing, genetic monitoring and climate forecasting.

According to a news release, one way the project aims to accomplish its goals is through developing web-based software that will integrate existing long-term observational AIS databases.

The integration will include information that currently exists in a United States Geological Survey database with observations submitted from across the country.

Gender-bending Chemicals in Water Supply - Researchers from the University of Calgary sampled populations of longnose dace, a silvery minnow, in Alberta’s Oldman and Bow Rivers. The Bow River flows through downtown Calgary and supplies its drinking water. Samples were taken back to the lab and dissected for further analysis and biologists then noticed that the random catch was overwhelmingly female.
