SUMMARY:Oak Resiliency Assessment Tool Workshop (webinar)
DESCRIPTION:Register \nJanuary 19\, 2022\n4:00 – 5:00 p.m. ET \nApproved for 1 Category 1 SAF CFE credit \nJoin the Forest Stewards Guild to learn how you can use a web-based Oak Resiliency Assessment Tool to assess the resiliency of oak on land you manage. During the workshop\, you will learn why this tool can provide value to you and the landowners you work for\, the resources the tool provides\, and practice using the tool in a meaningful way to assess the resiliency of oak forests.

SUMMARY:“The Radical Forest Manager” online presentation
DESCRIPTION:Join link \nSaturday\, January 22\, 2022\n7:00 – 8:00 p.m. ET \n“The Radical Forest Manager” at the Green Mountain Club Burlington Section Annual Meeting \nIn a changing climate\, forests are both an asset – helping slow and mitigate the effects of climate change by absorbing the carbon we emit – and under threat. At the same time\, climate change\, resource extraction and environmental degradation threatens peoples\, species and ecosystems worldwide. While some of these problems may seem remote\, is it possible that Vermont’s forests have a broader role to play in crafting a just and sustainable world? \nIn this presentation\, Ethan Tapper\, the Chittenden County Forester for the Vermont Department of Forests\, Parks and Recreation will discuss the role that forests and forest management play in our past\, present and future\, with an eye on social and environmental justice in Vermont and across the globe. Tapper will discuss how responsible\, ecological forest management can help support justice\, equity\, healthy communities and healthy ecosystems here in Vermont and world-wide. \n

SUMMARY:Aquatic Health and Biodiversity of Central Appalachian Forests (webinar)
DESCRIPTION:Register \nJanuary 25\, 2022\n12:30 – 2:00 p.m. ET \nDraft agenda for download \nApproved for 1.5 Category 1 SAF continuing education credits (CFE) \nThe Central Appalachian ecoregion spans the Appalachian\, Allegheny\, and Blue Ridge Mountain ranges in northwestern North Carolina to southern Pennsylvania. This ecoregion consists of many geologic variations and contains the largest drainage divide in the eastern U.S. between the Atlantic Slope and Mississippi Valley rivers. Forests in this region host a diverse amount of plant and animal species. This diversity is exceptionally high due to two main factors: lack of glaciation in the southern reaches of this region\, and there is a high variability of microclimates. Additionally\, this region is one of the richest temperate freshwater regions in the world and it contains parts of the Ohio\, Tennessee\, Cumberland\, and Mobile River drainages\, which are global hotspots for freshwater fish and invertebrates. \nWhile the forests in Central Appalachia provide valuable ecosystem services\, they are threatened by several human-caused factors. One of these threats includes hydrologic alteration and degradation\, leading to reduced quality of aquatic habitats. Forestry best management practices are used to ensure the protection of water quality during silviculture operations. Many states provide guidelines that are voluntary\, quasi-regulatory\, or regulatory. \nThis webinar will focus on the biodiversity of aquatic systems in Central Appalachian forests\, highlight the importance of good water quality\, and discuss ways to mitigate threats to water quality by using the recently updated NC BMP manual for forestry.

SUMMARY:Accelerating the development of structural complexity
DESCRIPTION:Accelerating the development of structural complexity: a case study from Ellsworth Creek Preserve\, Washington. \nRegister \nJanuary 27\, 2021\nNoon – 1:00 p.m. PT \nPresenters: Dr Van Kane\, Caden Chamberlain\, University of Washington\, and Michael Case\, The Nature Conservancy. \nRestoration treatments can theoretically accelerate the development of structural complexity in simplified forest stands. New research provides insights into the  effects of restoration treatments on the structural complexity of forest stands in the Ellsworth Creek Preserve in southwestern Washington 10 years post-treatment. The research team also compared forest structure and gap patterns between treated stands and existing late-successional areas within the preserve. In addition to sharing research results\, the discussion may help forest managers and landowners in the region who are considering restoration treatments as an option for improving short-term structural complexity in simplified forest stands. \nFor more information\, the full research paper is available at: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.foreco.2021.119641
