Invasive Water Chestnut in Northern New York Waters
I spent eight weeks at St. Lawrence University doing aquatic conservation research with Dr. Bradley Baldwin and a fellow student researcher, Lilia Smith '26. In our project, we studied an invasive species, water chestnut (WC), which has been found in local watersheds and has taken over a section of the Oswegatchie River. This was part of a larger project sponsored by NYSDEC to manage WC populations in the area.
