The Quest to Understand and Manage Phragmites (Virtual)

Since the 1970s, the invasive reed Phragmites australis has been taking over wetlands across the U.S. In this webinar, Smithsonian ecologists Melissa McCormick and Dennis Whigham will explore what set the stage for its explosive invasion, and share discoveries from over a decade of Phragmites research at the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center. They will also highlight efforts to manage it, and discuss public perceptions of this not-so-friendly European visitor.

This talk will be recorded! By signing up on Zoom, you’ll be able to watch live and receive a link to a closed-captioned recording once it’s ready.
