As the planet heats up, non-native species all over the U.S. are pushing north to follow the warmer weather. But the simple narrative doesn't end there. Marine biologist Andy Chang has tracked the movement of species introduced by human activity to San Francisco Bay and the California coast for the past two decades. In addition to northward and upstream migrations in warmer years, his team has also noticed species getting wiped out in years of intense rainfall. In this talk, he'll reveal how climate change and extreme weather like droughts and floods are changing the seascape for invaders. He'll also highlight how countries can use this knowledge to help stop nascent invasions before they get a foothold, in San Francisco Bay, Chesapeake Bay and around the world.

This webinar will be recorded for those who can't join live! By signing up on Zoom, you'll receive a link to join live and a link to the recording approximately one week after the live event. Closed captions available at the live event and on the recording. Part of the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center's free "Life on a Sustainable Planet" webinar series.

What is the leadership of Maryland doing about this? Answer - NOTHING.

Were you expecting something different Fletch ? Maryland wants to be

like California so bad (BUT that'll NEVER work. Ca has Hollywood, we

have Baltimore crime ☹️ ) MD residents are dumb and makes NO SENSE. It

doesn't know what to do, so it follows in their footsteps. 👎
