The Southern California Montane Forests Project's Conservation Strategy is a roadmap for increasing the resilience and persistence of Southern California's montane forests. The upcoming webinar is designed to provide a space of learning in how the new conservation strategy can be implemented and exploring its potential applications in your work. Join us on December 5, 2024 from 3:00-4:00 PM PT to hear from project leads and ask questions.
The “Climate-Adapted Conservation Strategy for Southern California Montane Forests” aims to bolster the resilience of montane — or higher-elevation forests — with climate-informed actions. The strategy offers land managers a comprehensive guide to enhancing forest and community health with collaborations across different landscapes.
This conservation strategy has three main components: A customizable decision framework to prioritize forest health, a regional adaptation menu to combat climate stressors, and a post-fire restoration framework to identify and plan restoration projects. View the conservation strategy here.
Over four years, a collaborative team from the U.S. Geological Survey, USDA Forest Service, San Diego State University, and Climate Science Alliance have worked closely with forest managers, stewardship practitioners, Tribal community members, and community stakeholders to create this new roadmap for forest health.
Join this unique opportunity to learn more about this resource designed to help land managers tackle climate challenges in southern California’s montane forests.
