Sustainable Suburbia: Forest Inventory

Tuesday, February 23, 2021, 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM

The Westchester County Forest Inventory – What it Means for Rockland

Cornell Cooperative Extension of Rockland County presents Sustainable Suburbia featuring Dr. Andrew Reinmann of the Institute for Sustainable Cities at Hunter College on Tuesday, February 23rd from noon to 1:30 PM via Zoom.

About the Presenter:

Dr. Andrew Reinmann is an ecologist and biogeochemist who focuses on plant ecophysiology and the terrestrial carbon cycle. He is particularly interested in understanding the effects of environmental change (e.g., climate change, urbanization, and land cover change) on the drivers of plant-mediated controls of terrestrial carbon cycling, and nitrogen dynamics as a limiting nutrient, across a continuum of human-disturbed ecosystems. His research draws from multiple disciplines and combines field observations, ecosystem experiments, and laboratory analyses with GIS, remote sensing, and modeling. Reinmann currently has projects in forested and human dominated landscapes throughout the mid-Atlantic and Northeastern U.S.

Audience:

Land use board members, municipal park staff, environmentalists, and anyone interested in learning more.
