Join us at Severance Brewing for our first Sioux Falls Science Pub event of the season, all about Sioux Falls urban ants! From acting as hunters, gatherers, and gardeners to providing a workforce for nature's clean-up crew, they are more important than you might imagine. Learn how they respond to their environment and how we are changing their world in a myriad of ways.Our presenter is Dr. Diane Roeder, professor of biology at Augustana University, where she teaches introductory biology, ecology, animal behavior, and biostatistics. Trained as a behavioral ecologist, her prior research has focused on investigating extra-pair paternity in birds and coevolution between perennials and pollinators. Currently, she studies the relationship between microclimate and ant traits, which include thermal tolerance, thermal preference, and foraging behaviors in natural and urban environments.
This event is family-friendly. Stop by and grab a drink and a snack while you learn more about some of Sioux Falls' tiniest residents!
