[MAIPC] State-of-the-science on glyphosate use in aquatic areas?

[Susan McLaughlin]

Hi all.

I am wondering whether any of you might be able to speak to recent studies
or findings related to glyphosate use in aquatic environments.  By this I
am referring to use in riparian areas and floodplains as well as direct use
in wetlands and waterways.

In the arena of invasive plant control, practice has often been based on
the understanding that it is the surfactant that is impactful on aquatic
life rather than the glyphosate itself.  However, as of late I am hearing
more discussions, and seeing some papers, which would point to glyphosate
-- no matter the formulation or added surfactants -- being a real problem
in aquatic environments.

Have you seen (or written) papers that have isolated the impacts of
glyphosate from other herbicide ingredients?

TIA,

Susan McLaughlin
