The Alaska Department of Fish and Game’s Invasive Species Program is back in Sitka this spring, with a new round of research on the best way to kill off an organism called d-Vex.
KCAW’s Robert Woolsey recently spoke with the project director Tammy Davis.
ADF&G and the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center will give a presentation on the work, 6-8 p.m. Wednesday, May 23 in the Sitka Sound Science Center.
