SUMMARY:Clean Lakes 101: Frozen Frontiers - Secrets of Life Beneath the Ice
DESCRIPTION:Clean Lakes 101\n\n\n\nJoin us for this in-person edition of Clean Lakes 101 on Saturday\, February 8th from 2 -3 p.m. as part of our free\, family-friendly Frozen Assets Festival. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTo register\, enter your information below\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this Talk\n\n\n\nJoin us as we explore the fascinating adaptations of animals that live beneath lake ice during the winter. We’ll highlight how these species survive in extreme cold\, low oxygen\, and dark environments\, focusing on strategies such as metabolic slowdowns\, specialized breathing techniques\, and unique behaviors to cope with the frozen habitat. Led by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resource’s Justin Chenevert\, this family-friendly presentation offers a deeper understanding of the resilience of winter wildlife.   \n\n\n\nAbout our Speaker\n\n\n\nJustin Chenevert (Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources) began his career in water resources by removing invasive plants from the Charles River outside of Boston\, MA. Soon enough\, he found himself in Madison completing the Water Resources Management master’s program at UW. Justin worked for Clean Lakes Alliance from 2014 – 2016. He supported the volunteer water quality monitoring program and analyzing water quality data. Justin is currently employed by the Department of Natural Resources in the Monitoring section of the Water Quality Bureau. He works on a variety of projects related to lake water quality\, ecology\, and citizen science. In his free time\, Justin enjoys ice fishing and paddling on the Madison lakes and beyond. \n\n\n\nEvent Details\n\n\n\nThis event will be held at The Edgewater – grand ballroom\, section C\, level 5  (1001 Wisconsin Pl\, Madison\, WI 53703). The program runs from 2 – 3 p.m. A Q/A session will follow the presentation as time allows. Limited parking may be available at The Edgewater parking ramp. Otherwise\, parking will be available on area streets or nearby City of Madison parking ramps. \n\n\n\nClean Lakes 101 Lecture Series\n\n\n\nClean Lakes 101 is a series of educational events open to the public. They are a great chance to learn more about the science behind the issues that affect our lakes. Each month we feature a different expert to make the science accessible and interesting to non-technical audiences. The series is produced in partnership with the UW-Madison Nelson Institute for Environmental Studies and UW-Extension Lakes\, with presenting sponsor National Guardian Life Insurance Company\, hosting sponsor The Edgewater\, supporting sponsor Johnson Financial Group\, and media sponsor WKOW. Additional support is provided by Alliant Energy Foundation\, Hovde Properties\, and Perkins Coie LLP. \n\n\n\nThank you\, 2025 Frozen Assets sponsors!
