MAISRC Newsletter: March 2023

MAISRC recently announced the launch of six new research projects. These projects were selected as part of a competitive proposal process following a comprehensive research needs assessment conducted by MAISRC. The results of these projects will lead to better prevention of aquatic invasive species and improved management of Minnesota’s resources, including the species impacted by AIS. The projects include research into the protection of wild rice from AIS, the effects of carp on greenhouses gas emissions amid climate change, and educational messaging for the public to stop the spread of AIS.
