A graphic for the webinar "the power of plants"
In previous “HABs 101” webinars, we learned about the basics of harmful algal blooms, the value of algae in aquatic ecosystems, and heard from Michiganders who are tackling HABs in their inland lakes.
In March, we will look at The Power of Plants and discuss how to use plants to reduce nutrients and help prevent algal blooms. Hosted by Michigan Sea Grant and partners around the state.Want to dive deeper into HABs? Find a collection of resources on Michigan Sea Grant’s website.
