NY ReLeaf Webinar: Ecological Assessment of New York City’s Natural Areas

Join NY ReLeaf for an urban forestry webinar on July 21st at 10 AM! The Natural Areas Conservancy (NAC) exists to restore and conserve the green and blue spaces of New York City in order to enhance the lives of all New Yorkers. In this webinar NAC Project Manager Justin Bowers will talk about recent research done in NYC to create a detailed picture of the composition and condition of NYC’s forests and wetlands. The study collected ecological data in over 1000 plots throughout the city and provided a wealth of data that contributed significantly to the create of the Forest Management Framework, a guiding document for forest restoration and conservation in NYC over the next 25 years.
