Southeast Climate Hub and Resources for Resilient Forestry
01:00 pm - 02:00 pm

Description: RESCHEDULED FROM MARCH 21: This presentation will be an overview of climate smart forestry. Forest conservation has been around for 100 years and climate-smart forestry (CSF) builds on those traditional management roles. Specifically, CSF examines the impacts of climate change, adaptation, and mitigation on forest disturbance. Secondly, CSF considers social interactions between forests and climate, unlike traditional forest management that traditionally focusses on forest products. This online presentation is a joint product of a consortium of four Land-grant Universities (Clemson University, University of Georgia, Auburn University & Alabama Extension System, and Alabama A&M University) in partnership with the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Southeast Climate Hub. This is the fourth presentation in the "Resilient and Sustainable Southern Forests Online Presentation Series."
