The Midwest CASC’s work is driven by collaboration. By bringing together scientists, natural and cultural resource managers, and members of the public, we develop relevant, actionable science for our region.
A recent example of this collaboration in action was a knowledge exchange workshop held on the Lac du Flambeau reservation. Partners on a Midwest CASC-funded project investigating the impacts of climate change on vegetation, ecohydrology, and management of manoomin (wild rice) watersheds gathered to share their knowledge through hands-on demonstrations, including sediment coring, aquatic plant identification, hydrological monitoring, carving knocking sticks, and preparing deer hides.
