Born out of the Beaver Science & Research Working Group and curated by Dr. Brian Clarke and Dr. Sandra Clinton, the Beaver Science Speaker Series brings research, discovery, and knowledge from beaver researchers to everyone. The monthly series serves as a resource for anyone interested in beaver science, offering a platform to share new findings. Each session features a guest speaker presenting their work, followed by Q&A and discussion.
Next up: Dr. Camille McNeely on October 9th at 11am PT / 2pm ET, presenting on Are Beaver Dam Analogs an Effective Restoration Technique in Wildfire-impacted, Semi-arid Watersheds? REGISTER HERE!
Speaker Bio: Dr. Camille McNeely is a professor of Biology at Eastern Washington University. Her research encompasses a variety of topics in applied stream ecology, with interests in stream restoration, invertebrate biodiversity, and nutrient cycling. Recent projects in her laboratory include 1) evaluating the effectiveness of beaver dam analogs to improve water storage and reduce incision in wildfire-impacted streams, 2) macroinvertebrate distribution and diversity in major watersheds of the Inland Northwest, USA, and 3) environmental determinants of distributions of freshwater sponges and fairy shrimp in the Inland Northwest.
