Future Directions for Hurricane Disturbed Forests Corner Down Image

October 21 @ 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm

Join Experts from silviculture, forest economics, forest management and operations, and geospatial disciples in a panel discussion on the potential opportunities and challenges for research and outreach related to hurricane disturbed forest. The panel will outline the needs and collaborations necessary for advancing current research and explore unknown and underappreciated issues related to the topic. The audience is also invited to ask questions to our panel and provide insight into the conversation.

This webinar is the second of two webinars. The first webinar, Current Research in Hurricane Disturbed Forests, shared results from recent research exploring dynamics of hurricane impacted forests. These include how stand and tree characteristics influence damage severity after a catastrophic hurricane disturbance, how those characteristics interact with silvicultural regimes, as well as new tools that aid decision-makers with damage assessment and salvage efforts.
