Description

In 2017, the interstate early detection and rapid response team contracted with the nature conservancy (TNC) to develop an early detection survey approach for invasive aquatic plants (AIP) in great lakes ports and to implement surveillance at some of the highest risk sites in the basin. TNC subsequently developed a survey design and sampling approach that facilitates a quantitative assessment of survey performance based on species accumulation theory and rarefaction. This project builds on this progress by operationalizing an AIP surveillance program based on the TNC sampling protocol, species watch list, and site priorities identified by the interstate team. This project includes two seasons of semi-quantitative surveys of all encountered aquatic plant species at sites identified in the glri interstate surveillance framework as high-risk for new introductions or range expansion of AIP or those identified by states and tribes as a new priority. The surveys will produce a GEO-referenced data set of total plant community composition as well as AIP occurrence, site summary reports, and specimen vouchers.
