SUMMARY:Jumping Worms in Field and Forest
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\nNearly all earthworms in New England are introduced fro
 m Europe and Asia.While some species of earthworms benefit some species of
  plants\, invasive earthworms have caused major shifts in North American p
 lant communities. Jumping worms alter the structure and chemistry of the s
 oil dramatically\, leaving a grainy soil full of worm excrement (castings)
 \, and they can damage lawns\, landscapes and forest habitat.This talk wil
 l present the impacts and history of earthworms (and jumping worms in part
 icular) and will provide information on identification of jumping worms.\n
 \nPresented by Dr. Annise Dobson\, a postdoctoral researcher at the Yale S
 chool of the Environment. Currently\, she is working to identify the movem
 ent of jumping worms through NewYork City and assessing their impacts on u
 rban plant communities.\n\nSign up: https://bit.ly/3L1KAaq\n\n\n\n
