ABOUT THE WEBINAR
Oak forests (Quercus spp.) are threatened across their native range in North America because of urban development and climate-related pressures. They comprise over half of all forest land in the eastern United States and represent a โkeystoneโ species that supports biodiversity by providing food for many insects, birds, and mammals. The challenge is that they are not regenerating, especially in cities, where barriers include invasive plants, increased herbivory, and acorn predation. In this forum, we will explore current science and practice to protect white oaks (Quercus alba) specifically and hope to foster dialogue with managers and practitioners on efforts needed and being deployed to sustain this crucial species and oaks generally โ both for their place in our cities and throughout their native range.
