SUMMARY:SciCafe: Restoring Lateral Connectivity in the Apalachicola River Floodplain: An Adaptive Management Approach
DESCRIPTION:G Matt Kondolf\, professor at University of California Berkeley\nAlong most US rivers\, floodplains have been cut off from their rivers by dikes\, but the Apalachicola River is flanked by a largely intact forested floodplain\, supporting biodiversity and ecosystem productivity.  The river’s 400-mi long network of sloughs formerly supported important populations of juvenile fish and other organisms and provided terrestrially sourced nutrients to the Bay. An ill-conceived program of navigational dredging in the second half of the 20th century disrupted formerly stable riverbed and banks\, suspending large quantities of sand\, some of which deposited in sloughs\, forming bars that now block flow of water. As the river has stabilized in the 20 years since dredging stopped\, the Apalachicola Riverkeeper is implementing three pilot projects to remove dredging-related sand deposits and clear trees recently downed by Hurricane Michael\, to reopen sloughs to water circulation. Testing the conceptual model that reopened sloughs will have sufficient water velocity to self-maintain (as they no longer receive unnaturally large influxes of sand)\, the pilot projects are carefully monitored. If successful\, the approach may be applicable to other sloughs in the system. To register for the virtual workshop\, go to https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/2087346286683675403. You will receive a link after you register. \nhttps://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/2087346286683675403

SUMMARY:SciCafe: River flow and Sea Level Rise Impacts on the Apalachicola Bay Food Web
DESCRIPTION:Changes in river inflow and sea level rise in Apalachicola Bay are likely to occur in the future\, but what does this mean for populations of important fishery species as well as the human communities who rely on the estuary? Kira Allen\, ANERR’s 2020-22 Margaret A. Davidson Fellow\, presents the culmination of her Fellowship research involving a coupled hydrodynamic and food web model and a survey of Apalachicola Bay stakeholders to assess potential future impacts of river flow and sea level rise on the Apalachicola Bay food web.

SUMMARY:Oyster Ecology
DESCRIPTION:Learn about the role oysters play in the health of Apalachicola Bay. Discover what makes the bay so ideal for growing oysters\, what gives our oysters their distinct flavor\, and how oyster bars benefit the ecosystem. We will also look at what possibly made the oysters collapse and what is being done to restore them to Apalachicola Bay. After spending some time in the classroom\, participants will get the chance look at its these creatures under a microscope. This class is full of opportunities to learn more about the animals that live in our bay and along the tidal flats. Registration is free\, but registering is required. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/oyster-ecology-tickets-253366695607

SUMMARY:SciCafe: What Fossils Can Tell Us About Oysters in Apalachicola Bay?
DESCRIPTION:Oyster populations in Apalachicola Bay have changed a lot in recent decades\, but how do we know what the oyster reefs looked like prior to modern real-time monitoring? Also\, how can we gather additional historical information about the intertidal reefs? Join us as we explore what buried oyster shells can tell us about Apalachicola Bay oyster reefs with Dr. Stephen Durham\, a paleontologist and environmental specialist with the Florida Dept of Environmental Protection.

SUMMARY:Reserve Wednesday: Diamondback Terrapins
DESCRIPTION:Diamondback terrapins are a brackish water turtle species with an extensive range\, inhabiting much of the United States Gulf and Atlantic coasts. U.S. Geological Survey and partners are currently studying diamondback terrapins throughout the Florida panhandle to learn more about the species in an previously understudied portion of their range. Join USGS biologist Dan Catizone at the Apalachicola NERR at 2PM on Wednesday\, September 21 for a presentation about what they’ve learned so far.

SUMMARY:Red Tides and Other Harmful Algal Blooms: Understanding HABs in the Apalachicola Estuary
DESCRIPTION:In the fall of 2021\, Apalachicola and many other northern Gulf coastal communities experienced a red tide event. Although they’re common in the central Gulf coast of Florida\, harmful algal blooms (HABs) are an unusual occurrence in the Apalachicola Estuary. What causes HABs? What effects do they have on marine life\, especially oysters and other species we eat? Are there other HABs that we need to be concerned about? Jason Garwood\, Research Coordinator at the Apalachicola National Estuarine Research Reserve will discuss these and many other factors surrounding these events.
