Research Focus

Research emphasis is on the efficacy, selectivity, and dissipation of current EPA-registered aquatic herbicides and algaecides. Research in Florida involves support of large-scale hydrilla control activities and evaluation of new products or new uses of existing products for hydrilla control. At the national scale, laboratory screening and assay development for evaluating phytotoxicity of various herbicides to invasive and non-target native plants is emphasized. Research also focuses on the impact of various management tools on the population dynamics of aquatic plant propagules.

Dr. Netherland is the current editor of the Journal of Aquatic Plant Management.
