Hurricanes winds and associated storm surge are impacting coastal forests, while southern pine beetle outbreaks and other disturbances are increasing across the region. The USDA Southeast Regional Climate Hub (SERCH) has been established to increase forest resiliency to these and other stresses. SERCH Director, Steven McNulty will present tools and other products developed by SERCH to improve southeast forest resilience to various disturbances.
