Water Quality Lunch 'N Learn - "Expected Climate Change Influences on Upper Midwest Aquatic Systems
Thursday, August 10, 2023, 12:00 P.M. - 1:00 P.M.
This webinar will be a practical discussion on the expected trends in weather patterns due to climate change and the expected impacts to natural areas, especially aquatic systems in the upper Midwest. Changes in precipitation patterns are already being experienced in northern Illinois, including more overall rainfall and more high-intensity, short-duration events. These rainfall events will likely be followed by drought periods on unpredictable lengths. The impacts to green infrastructure areas like wetlands, rivers and lakes could be significant. The program will discuss concerns for future planning and restoration efforts of these systems, with perspectives offered for ecological restoration and design professionals.
