SUMMARY:Pond Ecology Matters: Biodiversity and Its Role in Pond Health
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Association to Preserve Cape Cod’s Koppel Center for a talk by our very own Dave Fryxell on how Pond Ecology Matters: Biodiversity and Its Role in Pond Health. \nCape Cod’s ponds are more than scenic features—they are vibrant ecosystems that support an extraordinary diversity of life and provide services essential to our communities. While growing concerns about pollution and declining water quality are rightly receiving attention\, an equally important and often overlooked piece of the puzzle is biodiversity itself. \nIn this talk\, Dave will explore how the plants\, animals\, and microscopic life within ponds shape their health\, resilience\, and function. Drawing on classic studies and compelling real-world\, local examples\, he will share stories that reveal how ponds both support and depend on the rich web of life they contain. \nAttendees will come away with a deeper appreciation for the hidden dynamics of pond ecosystems and why biodiversity is central to the services they provide. \nRSVP here.\n \nSpeaker: Dave Fryxell is the executive director of the Dennis Conservation Land Trust and a research scientist with the University of Connecticut’s Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology. He earned a Ph.D. in ecology and evolution from the University of California\, Santa Cruz\, where he studied in the Freshwater and Coastal Ecology lab group\, and later completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Auckland’s School of Environment. Dave’s research and teaching have focused on freshwater ecology\, with a particular interest in how biodiversity shapes and is shaped by freshwater ecosystems.
