SUMMARY:Monarchs And Pesticides: Understanding The Risks\, Creating High-Quality Habitat
DESCRIPTION:This event will be recorded and posted to: the Xerces Society YouTube channel\n\n\n\nPesticides are a hidden hazard in many monarch conservation efforts\, whether in working lands\, parks\, backyards\, or monarch overwintering groves. Residues in milkweed and nectar plants can degrade habitat quality and put monarchs at risk. This webinar will unpack the latest science on pesticide contamination in habitat and explore how these chemicals affect butterflies directly and indirectly. Join Emily May\, Agricultural Conservation Lead with the Xerces Pesticide Reduction Program\, to discuss practical steps land managers\, farmers\, and gardeners can take to reduce exposure and support the creation of high-quality habitat for monarchs. \nThis webinar will be recorded and available on our YouTube channel. Closed Captioning will be available during this webinar. \nLearn more and register here today! \n\nEmily May – Agricultural Conservation Lead\, Pesticide Program – Xerces Society

SUMMARY:The Fascinating World Of Bees: From Novel Monitoring Tools To Landscape-Level Stressors
DESCRIPTION:This event will be recorded and posted to: the Xerces Society YouTube channel\n\n\n\nIn this webinar\, Dr. Laura Figueroa will present on the importance of pollinators worldwide\, factors that influence pollinator communities\, and novel monitoring tools (including non-lethal AI based approaches)\, for monitoring pollinators in changing landscapes. She will present work on bee communities in solar facilities and other human modified environments. \nThis webinar will be recorded and available on our YouTube channel. Closed Captioning will be available during this webinar. \nLearn more and register here today! \n\nDr. Laura Figueroa – Assistant Professor; Environmental Conservation Department – University of Massachusetts Amherst\nDr. Laura Figueroa is an Assistant Professor in the Environmental Conservation Department at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Dr. Figueroa was previously an NSF postdoctoral research fellow\, and completed her PhD in entomology at Cornell University. She is broadly interested in insect conservation\, with a focus on pollinators in changing landscapes and climate change. She has worked in temperate regions (primarily the Northeastern US) as well as in the tropics (in Costa Rica and in Colombia)\, and her active research program seeks to answer pressing questions in the field of pollinator conservation.

SUMMARY:Insect Restoration And Conservation: Creating Usable Habitats In Human-Dominated Landscapes
DESCRIPTION:This event will be recorded and posted to: the Xerces Society YouTube channel\n\n\n\nAlthough most ecosystems on Earth are altered by humans\, we still have little understanding of how to do conservation\, especially of insects in human-dominated ecosystems. Join Dr. Chelse Prather\, Associate Professor of Biology at the Univeristy of Daylon\, to talk about four projects on this topic covering diverse ecosystems such as restored prairies\, greenroofs\, urban farms\, and solar arrays as well as diverse insect groups like beetles\, hemipterans\, bees\, ants\, and butterflies. \nThis webinar will be recorded and available on our YouTube channel. Closed Captioning will be available during this webinar. \nLearn more and register here today! \n\nDr. Chelse Prather – Associate Professor – University of Dayton\nDr. Chelse Prather is an ecologist with 20 years of diverse experience working with insect communities in forests\, grasslands\, and urban ecosystems. She is a passionate instructor\, mentor\, and scientist. She has managed a variety of projects from understanding basic insect ecology\, like what nutrients limit insect communities\, to very applied projects\, such as how the development of solar power affects insect communities.
