SUMMARY:“Shark Heart” in Real Life – The Science of Studying Sharks
DESCRIPTION:Learn about sharks and current research with Dr. Alexandra McInturf. \nSharks play a critical role in maintaining vibrant ecosystems in Oregon and around the world. Yet\, considered “dangerous” by popular media and threatened by human activity worldwide\, these organisms have faced global population declines. Dr. Alexandra McInturf has been studying shark species worldwide for the last decade\, including those among the most vulnerable. As an animal behaviorist\, she researches some of the most understudied components of these organisms\, including their social behavior. In this presentation\, she will introduce some of the key characteristics of sharks (what makes a shark\, a shark)\, talk about shark diversity\, and finally discuss some of the projects she and other researchers are undertaking on different species (including white sharks) in the Big Fish Lab at Oregon State University.

SUMMARY:"Shark Heart" in Real Life - The Science of Studying Sharks-Sisters Library
DESCRIPTION:Learn about sharks and current research with Dr. Alexandra McInturf. \nSharks play a critical role in maintaining vibrant ecosystems in Oregon and around the world. Yet\, considered “dangerous” by popular media and threatened by human activity worldwide\, these organisms have faced global population declines. Dr. Alexandra McInturf has been studying shark species worldwide for the last decade\, including those among the most vulnerable. As an animal behaviorist\, she researches some of the most understudied components of these organisms\, including their social behavior. In this presentation\, she will introduce some of the key characteristics of sharks (what makes a shark\, a shark)\, talk about shark diversity\, and finally discuss some of the projects she and other researchers are undertaking on different species (including white sharks) in the Big Fish Lab at Oregon State University.

SUMMARY:Stream Sampling on Whychus Creek
DESCRIPTION:Sampling aquatic insects\, including mayflies and stoneflies\, provides important insights into the health of Whychus Creek. Volunteers meet at Creekside Park in Sisters for a sampling training\, then\, in teams of two to four\, use nets to collect aquatic insect samples from the stream at sites along Whychus. This event is a great opportunity to learn about habitat restoration on Whychus Creek for salmon and steelhead\, spend a day along less-visited reaches of the creek\, and contribute to knowledge about how restoration actions are changing stream conditions. \nUDWC will host our 14th annual Stream Sampling on Whychus Creek event on August 15th and 16th\, 2024! This will be our 14th consecutive year collecting aquatic insect (macroinvertebrate) samples to learn about how physical habitat conditions for native trout and salmon and other aquatic organisms are changing alongside stream flow and stream habitat restoration work by UDWC and our partners. \n2024 sample collection will focus on the following reaches of Whychus Creek: \n\nRecently restored reaches at Deschutes Land Trust’s Rimrock Ranch Preserve\, and at Creekside Park in Sisters;\nOlder restoration sites including Whychus Canyon Preserve Phase 1\, Camp Polk Meadow Preserve upstream reaches\, and Whychus Floodplain on National Forest lands upstream of Sisters);\nSamples from unrestored\, “control” reaches at Whychus Canyon Preserve; and\nSamples from Alder Springs and upstream of USFS Road 6360\, both affected by stream flow restoration but where no habitat restoration has occurred.\n\nWe will collect 18 samples over two days with restoration partners and community volunteers\, working in teams of 2-4.
