SUMMARY:How a diversity of human cultures perfects our understanding of conservation
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Rowzat Shipchandler: MNDNR Diversity Coordinator. \nThe recorded Zoom meeting is available on the Videos page. \nWe often talk about how having a diversity of plant species makes a native plant community stronger and more resilient. Similarly\, human diversity can make our work in conservation stronger and more resilient. Greater diversity in the sources of our knowledge are crucial to managing and conserving our resources. We learn more about the Minnesota DNR’s diversity\, equity and inclusion efforts and will talk about how expanding diversity\, equity\, and inclusion in the work of conservation can improve decision making and open our perception of nature.

SUMMARY:The Role of Prairie Restorations in the Conservation of Native Bee Communities Across a Gradient of Agricultural Land Use
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Dr. Ian Lane\, Department of Entomology\, University of Minnesota. \nThe recorded Zoom meeting is available on the Videos page. \nDr. Lane’s Research Interest \nMy work primarily focuses on native bee conservation\, with a focus on understanding how bee communities respond to the floral and landscape elements of prairie reconstruction. I also have an avid interest in the specialized relationships between bees and their host plants and habitats. I am also a native plant enthusiast with a hobby garden in my backyard where I try to grow some of my favorite species. My favorite native plants are Amorpha canescens and Pedicularis canadensis.

SUMMARY:Reconstructing the first angiosperms and their initial diversification
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Dr. James Doyle\, Professor Emeritus\, Department of Evolution and Ecology\, College of Biological Sciences University of Califormia Davis. \nThe recorded Zoom meeting is available on the Videos page. \nDr. Doyle’s Research Interest \nMy research deals primarily with the origin and early evolution of angiosperms. My oldest interest is in Cretaceous fossil pollen and leaves and their implications for the evolution\, geographic spread\, and original ecology of angiosperms. More recently my research has emphasized phylogenetic analyses of relationships between angiosperms and other seed plants and among living primitive angiosperm groups\, based on morphological\, molecular\, and fossil evidence. I have worked on phylogeny\, evolution\, and biogeography of several living plant groups\, especially the tropical family Annonaceae\, the largest family of primitive angiosperms. My current main project aims to integrate Early Cretaceous fossils into the predominantly molecular phylogeny of living primitive angiosperms and to evaluate implications of the results for morphological evolution.

SUMMARY:Moose and Brainworm
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Dr. Tiffany Wolf\, DVM\, PhD\, University of Minnesota. \nThe recorded Zoom meeting is available on the Videos page. \nThe moose\, an iconic creature of the north woods and an important member of this ecosystem\, is in serious decline. This trend is the result of several factors including a parasite\, Parelaphostrongylus tenuis\, which has been introduced via the expansion of another host species\, the white-tailed deer. \nDr. Wolf\, an assistant professor at the University of Minnesota-College of Veterinary Medicine\, is on the front lines. She is working in collaboration with the Grand Portage Band as she explores the impacts of wildlife management practices\, pinpointing the parasites temporary hosts\, and looking at differences in the DNA of the parasite in hopes of preventing transmission. She will be sharing with us the details regarding her research.

This trend is the result of several factors including a parasite\, Parelaphostrongylus tenuis\, which has been introduced via the expansion of another host species\, the white-tailed deer. \nDr. Wolf\, an assistant professor at the University of Minnesota-College of Veterinary Medicine\, is on the front lines. She is working in collaboration with the Grand Portage Band as she explores the impacts of wildlife management practices\, pinpointing the parasites temporary hosts\, and looking at differences in the DNA of the parasite in hopes of preventing transmission. She will be sharing with us the details regarding her research.

SUMMARY:Moose Mountain SNA\, A Late Summer Hike in the North Shore Highlands
DESCRIPTION:Where:       Duluth\, Minnesota \nWhen:        Saturday August 24th\, 2019 (Time TBD) \nLeaders:     Brooke Haworth\, MNDNR NE Region Plant Ecologist & AmberBeth VanNingen\, MNDNR SNA NE Region Specialist \nMoose Mountain SNA is located in Duluth\, in the North Shore Highlands ECS subsection. Moose Mountain is a bedrock ridge “held up” by an underlying erosion-resistant diabase sill\, formed by intrusion of magma between pre-existing rock layers. At its peak\, the mountain rises nearly 550 feet above the elevation of Lake Superior\, which is less than a mile away as the crow (or raven) flies. \nThe SNA straddles the ridge\, hosting both north- and south-facing forested slopes. It was selected for protection as an excellent example of northern hardwoods\, in particular a 55-acre stand of old-growth sugar maple-basswood forest. This stand has been the focus of research into dynamics of northern hardwood communities along Minnesota’s north shore\, exploring ways that human-caused climate change might affect the distribution of sugar maple trees. The remainder of the site’s uplands are dominated by aspen-birch forest\, while lowlands in the northwest corner of the SNA near the Lester River are occupied by wet forest\, with black ash\, aspen and balsam poplar. \nLogistics \n\nMeet at 10 am at the (small) SNA parking area. Carpooling from Duluth could be helpful.\nDirections: north from Duluth on MN Hwy 61 N\, to Lester River Rd (Co Rd 12) for 3.4 miles. Parking lot on east side of road. Lat/Lon: 46.881545\, -91.983906\n\nNotes: This SNA features steep/sloped terrain throughout. Can be slippery and wet. Bring appropriate hydration and field gear. \nField trips are open to MNNPS members only and pre-registration is required. Send an email to Ken Arndt at ken.arndt@mnrinc.us to register.

SUMMARY:Spring Plants and Observations of Change on the Sandplain
DESCRIPTION:Where:       Bethel\, Minnesota (northern Anoka County)\nWhen:        Saturday May 25th\, 2019 (9 AM to Noon\, with picnic lunch after)   \nLeaders:     Barb Delaney\, Botanist and Plant Ecologist \nBarb Delaney will lead MNNPS members on a morning hike into Helen Allison Savanna\, one of the more unique plant communities of the Anoka Sandplain. If you have never seen an oak savanna\, this is your chance. See large\, open-grown bur oaks with a suite of prairie plant species understory. Helen Allison Savanna was named for Helen Allison Irvine\, “Minnesota’s grass lady\,” who wrote a text on the 180 grasses of Minnesota. This SNA lies within the Anoka sand plain\, providing an excellent example of sand dune plant succession\, with blowouts and dunes in various stages of stabilization by pioneer species. \nCommunity types found on the site include oak sand savanna\, dry prairie with bur oak and pin oak\, thickets of willow and aspen\, and sedge marshes in scattered depressions. Trees and shrubs characteristic of a savanna are found here: pin oak\, bur oak\, American hazelnut\, chokecherry\, and quaking aspen. Other savanna species include lead plant\, smooth sumac\, slender willow\, steeple bush\, aster\, and goldenrod. Look on the dunes for pioneer sand plants such as sea-beach needle grass and hairy panic grass. Sedge meadows contain tussocks of Hayden’s sedge\, along with marsh fern and blue-joint grass. Other rare plant species occurring here include rhombic-petaled evening primrose and tall nut-rush. \nIn case of severe weather\, we will wait for it to pass and shift the trip time accordingly. In the unlikely event that we must cancel\, we will email you. \nField trips are open to MNNPS members only and pre-registration is required. Send an email to Ken Arndt at ken.arndt@mnrinc.us to register.
