Adding insult to injury: anthropogenic noise intensifies predation risk by an invasive freshwater fish species. Congratulation to Marina for this research project.

Water Quality, Great Lakes, and Invasive species. This is the best book I've read in awhile. If you are interested in the invasive species issue and opening of the St Lawerence Seaway, this book is for you. A sad tale indeed.

These are freshwater Zebra mussels (Dreissena polymorpha) from the #MohawkRiver (NY). They are an #invasiveSpecies that has been incredibly successful in the watershed, unfortunately. I collected these from near E15 (Canajoharie) yesterday. #ErieCanal #RoundGoby
The #RoundGoby has invaded the #MohawkRiver and the #HudsonRiver in the last two years...from the #GreatLakes. This one was at #LittleFalls on the Mohawk. Our #fishery is in trouble. #InvasiveSpecies

We are at a critical juncture for addressing aquatic invasive species (AIS) in the #ErieCanal that connects many of our waterways. This post is about the #RoundGoby and its path across NY State and current efforts to stop the advance into #LakeChamplain

Aquatic pathway between the Mohawk and Lake Champlain

Aquatic invaders are using the Erie Canal to get into Lake Champlain
