This 12-part monthly webinar series tells a story about how small- and large-scale forest disturbance, such as fire, wind, ice storms, hurricanes, sea-level rise, flooding, introduced and endemic forest pests, and others, impact forest ecosystems. The series will also examine ecological silviculture and climate adaptation approaches to help inform forest and wildlife management.

Webinars are presented in a Zoom format. You must register in advance. Registration is for all webinars in the series. Webinar recordings will be posted to the NCTC Webinar Gallery and Northern Institute of Applied Climate Science YouTube at a later date.

• Miranda Curzon with Iowa State University will discuss drivers of change, including wind, floods, fire, pests, and invasive species, on Central Hardwood and Oak forest types. The Adaptive Silviculture for Climate Change (ASCC) Network will be reintroduced with site-specific examples.
