Показать описание
This week (January 22) Julia Noordyk of UW Sea Grant Institute will be here to talk about "The Water Quality of Green Bay: Past, Present & Future.”
She writes:
"Since the arrival of the Europeans in the 17th century, the world’s largest freshwater estuary has undergone tremendous ecological changes. The once stunningly clearwater bay, surrounded by wetlands, is now primarily known for its legacy of industrial pollution, blue-green algae blooms and a dead zone.
"But all is not lost! Today, we are witnessing the largest PCB cleanup in the world in the Fox River and the re-construction of the Cat Island Chain which will provide 242 acres of island habitat for threatened and endangered shorebirds. Join me for a trip through time as we look at the ups and downs of one of Wisconsin’s greatest natural assets: the Bay of Green Bay."
About the Speaker:
Julia Noordyk is the Water Quality Outreach Specialist with the University of Wisconsin Sea Grant Institute who works closely with the Clean Bay Backers, a citizen’s advisory committee dedicated to restoring the health of the Fox River and bay of Green Bay. She also focuses on community resilience and reducing stormwater impacts with green infrastructure.
Julia has a M.S. degree in conservation biology and sustainable development from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a B.S. in zoology from Colorado State University.
