DR. AMY MYRBO “THE DANGERS OF ADDING SULFATE TO FRESHWATER ECOSYSTEMS”

April 20, 2023, 4 p.m.

303 Slone Research Building

Abstract:

Sulfate, which is usually considered innocuous, is a powerful pollutant (leading to release of nutrients, DOC+DIC, and mercury) when added to fresh water by human activities. In addition, sulfate discharge leads to sulfide in lake sediment pore waters, which can change aquatic plant ecosystems. The issue is particularly important in the Laurentian Great Lakes region, where wild rice, an aquatic grass that is highly culturally significant to Native peoples, is threatened by mining, municipal wastewater discharge, and other human impacts.
