This side offers an interactive key which is meant to aid the identification of aquatic insects found in North Dakota. It is primarily meant to be used by students, citizen groups, and professionals and be useful to implementing a biomonitoring program. This key is not a traditional dichotomous key. It has been based on 7 years of collections carried out by the North Dakota Department of Health (Bismarck, N.D.) and 5 years of collecting carried out by Dr. Andre DeLorme's macroinvertebrate lab at Valley City State University. A list with short biographies of the participating scientists completes the side. ... [Information of the supplier, modified]
This side offers an interactive key which is meant to aid the identification of the non-insect aquatic macroinvertebrates found in the rivers and streams of North Dakota. It is primarily meant to be used by students, citizen groups, and professionals and be useful to implementing a biomonitoring program. This key is not a traditional dichotomous key. It includes many different groups such as snails, daphnia, crayfish, leeches, and oligochaetes. For some of the groups it goes all the way down to species level. Other groups may only go down to the Order, Family or Phylum level (the sponges and flatworms).The key has been based on 7 years of collections carried out by the North Dakota Department of Health and 5 years of collecting carried out by Dr. Andre DeLorme's macroinvertebrate lab at Valley City State University.

The Invasive Species Centre is hosting the 18th International Conference on Aquatic Invasive Species that will be held in Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada, April 21-25, 2013. This conference series is widely considered the most comprehensive international forum on aquatic invasive species and continues to evolve to address new and emerging issues. Sessions and presentations include the review of accumulated scientific knowledge; presentation of the latest field research; introduction of new technological developments for prevention, monitoring and control; discussion of policy and legislation; and mechanisms to raise awareness with the general public through education and outreach initiatives. In recent years the conference has typically involved over 400 participants from over 30 countries, representing academia, industry, government agencies, NGOs and other stakeholders involved in the issues. Many are seeking opportunities for international cooperation and collaboration to address AIS issues from a global perspective. ... [Information of the supplier]
The long-term goal of this project is to create and maintain a FishBase-like information system for all aquatic living organisms (marine and freshwater), ca. 400,000 spp. Of these, marine organisms (about 240,000 spp) are the target of the current project phase. It will not provide yet another authority list of species, but rather, for each species included, make available the biological information necessary to conduct biodiversity and ecosystem studies, taking advantage of lists of species already available on paper and electronically, and using the scientific names as "hook" to organize biodiversity information. ...

ICAIS 2019 will be the premier scientific conference on aquatic invasive species issues that will offer new experiences for all participants, plus unique professional development opportunities for students and young professionals. The technical program will deliver the best science on invasive species in freshwater and marine environments to benefit managers and stakeholders worldwide. It will emphasize emerging and novel research in invasion ecology and its applications and will include keynote presentations by a diverse group of leading international scientists. A new addition to this year's conference will be expert tutorial speakers as the lead presenters for each session topic. The balance of the technical program will be structured around contributed abstracts of oral and poster presentations that will be peer reviewed with priority selection based on scientific rigor and relevance to ICAIS. ICAIS 2019 will stimulate discussion, provoke debate and inspire action towards scientific collaboration at a global scale. ... [Information of the supplier]
