Your MetroParks are laboratories for research: Ecologists, botanists, and other scientists conduct observations and experiments in nature. This research grows our understanding of how nature works and reveals new methods for conservation. Meet researchers, contemplate their study questions, hear their stories, and learn what they have discovered. Fish Management and Research in Southwest Ohio by Mike Porto, Fisheries Biologist, ODNR - Division of Wildlife
We will be talking about sport fish management from a State agency perspective. How we gather information on our sportfish populations, what we do with that information, and why it is important for our anglers. I will also talk about some of our other responsibilities and current research projects.
River and Floodplain Restorations in the Great Miami River Watershed by Donnie Knight, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Partners for Fish and Wildlife Program
We will discuss fish passage projects (barrier removal and modification), the American Eelgrass restoration, off-channel/bankfull wetland restorations, and stream and wetland fish reintroductions.
