JULY 7, 2022: “Telling the Grassland Story” by Morgan Treadwell, Ph.D
Believe it or not, grassland ecosystems are the most complex, most diverse, and most threatened system in the world. For centuries, we have taken grassland savannas and prairies for granted, never fully realizing the importance of their function in our daily lives, particularly our food supply. Join Dr. Treadwell on July 7th, as she walks through the grassland story of research and outreach and why it is so important to tell this story of biodiversity, productivity, resiliency, and more importantly, all the processes that come with our grassland systems.
NOTE: Coastal Prairie Chapter programs are free and open to the public and chapter members via Zoom. Advance registration is required. Check back here a couple days before the event for the registration link.
