VIRTUAL LIVE WEBINAR: Smart Urban Forestry to Meet Pennsylvania’s Climate Challenges

ABOUT THE WEBINAR

Researchers expect temperatures and moisture levels in Pennsylvania to rise across all seasons over the next century. Dynamic environmental stresses, including severe weather and temperature extremes, will require more careful thought on selecting resilient and adaptable tree and shrub species likely to respond well across the state. Join us as our own Julianne Schieffer discusses how urban forest managers can use climate models to prepare resilient and thriving urban and community landscapes.
