1. Determine lake suitability for AIS
2. Determine risk via watercraft movement
3. Determine risk via river connection
Predict future risk of AIS spread
• Used responses from MN DNR Watercraft Inspection survey from 2014-2017– Each survey generates up to two edges
• Aggregated over all responses to create network• Adjustments:
– Data errors (lake/county matching)– Sampling bias (random forest)– Missing edges (various regressions)
Previous lake visited(recalled)
Next lake visited(planned)
Location ofinspection
• 1,336,146 inspections conducted across 769 lakes• Complete network included:
– 2,529 lakes– 1,687,224 movements
• ~46% were self-loops
• Includes direction and weight
• After adjustments much largerand more complex network– Accuracy = 96.45%
Entering: Probability of contaminated
watercraft resulting in infestation in a suitable
waterbody (unknown)
Exiting: Probability of watercraft
leaving contaminated from an infested lake(unknown for starry
stonewort) (inspection survey)
1. Determine lake suitability for AIS
2. Determine risk via watercraft movement
3. Determine risk via river connection
Predict future risk of AIS spread
• Complete network included:– 10,105 “lakes”– 133,952 river segments
• 5,672 lakes connected to ≥ 1 lake through rivers
1. Determine lake suitability for AIS
2. Determine risk via watercraft movement
3. Determine risk via river connection
Predict future risk of AIS spread
• We want to simulate the AIS spread in MN (~25,900 lakes) using the boater movements and river connection
