Background
- Building on the success of our 2020 Science and Practice Forum and 2020-2021 Science & Practice Webinar Series, FCCI and FSG are pleased to announce our followup series that will address climate change impacts on the different forest types found in Maine through a combination of 1-hour webinars paired with half day field tours. The webinars will provide an overview of the topics and issues faced at each site: including those related to the intersection of climate adaptation and site-specific biodiversity. Webinars will include time for Q&A and to showcase field tour specifics. The field tours will examine climate impacts and management at each site, lunch is included with registration (fee for each tour: $20). Webinar registration is free.
