Riparian areas play a vital role in water quality and provide many important ecosystem services. Invasive species can have a big impact on riparian areas by reducing biodiversity and altering ecosystem function. SLELO PRISM is working on enhancing the resiliency of riparian areas within the Eastern Lake Ontario region through invasive species management and restoration. This webinar will provide an overview of our multiyear Riparian Restoration Initiative and showcase the ecological importance of the project areas, the impacts invasive species can have on riparian areas, invasive species control, and restoration techniques applied during the projects, selected plants, community involvement, and future plans.
