Presentation Summary:
Forests provide myriad ecosystem services. Past exploitive practices, pest and diseases, invasive plants and a changing climate are increasing the need for reforestation and restoration practices that may include tree planting. But for now, success means that the seeds planted are adapted to current conditions and will grow and thrive. However, with a changing climate, we have to consider new strategies for current and future conditions. Learn more about climate-smart seed sourcing and preparing your forest for future conditions.
What will participants learn:
• Considerations for planting seeds to reforest or restore
• Impacts of climate change on Pennsylvania’s forests
• What is climate-smart seed sourcing
Presented By:
Laura Leites, Associate Research Professor of Quantitative Forest Ecology
