SUMMARY:Planning for Community Climate Resilience: Tools for Local Governments
DESCRIPTION:Will your community be resilient in the face of more severe weather events and other challenges brought on by climate change? During this session\, you’ll gain planning tools\, resources\, and strategies to build community resilience. You’ll hear from a team of UW-Madison\, Division of Extension educators who will share practical tools and examples of effective planning to build climate resilience. \nInfo here.

SUMMARY:Climate Change Resources for Wetland Managers
DESCRIPTION:Climate change impacts wetlands\, but not all wetland types and locations are at equal risk. Find out what types of wetlands are most vulnerable\, what site-level factors can improve resiliency\, and most importantly\, what resources are available to help you create a customized adaptation plan for your specific site. \nRyan O’Connor is an ecologist who coordinates and conducts biotic inventories of natural communities for WDNR’s Natural Heritage Conservation program. His professional interests include providing land managers with high-quality data to make better decisions\, developing adaptation resources\, and hunting for rare and invasive plants. \nInfo here.

SUMMARY:Beyond Greenness: Quantifying Climate-Vegetation Interactions from Leaf to Globe
DESCRIPTION:Presentation by Mallory Barnes\, Assistant Professor\, School of Public and Environmental Affairs\, Indiana University \nAssessment and prediction of the impacts of climate change on the environment and human societies requires multi-scale understanding of interactions between biogeochemical\, hydrologic\, and atmospheric cycles. For many years\, measures of greenness from spaceborne satellites were the only way to consistently observe the terrestrial biosphere. Recent and emerging advances in remote sensing technologies and data science present a timely opportunity to explore new aspects of vegetation-climate interactions. In this talk\, I highlight two plant processes that impact climate: carbon uptake and transpiration. I will first show how machine learning techniques can be used to globally upscale carbon uptake measurements from eddy covariance towers in highly heterogenous drylands. Next\, I will show that the biophysical impacts of reforestation in the Eastern United States reduced anthropogenic warming in the Eastern United States. I will end by highlighting future opportunities for emerging technologies to overcome key knowledge gaps in vegetation-climate interactions. \nInfo here.

SUMMARY:Listening Session: Climate Impacts on Farmworkers
DESCRIPTION:A recent report by the Union of Concerned Scientists indicates that outdoor workers\, particularly farmworkers\, are 20 times more likely to die of heat-related illnesses than other workers. With increasingly extreme weather\, the number of unsafe outdoor workdays is likely to climb. \nThe Biden administration recently announced an effort to protect workers from heat stress\, including plans to develop a federal heat standard. How is this issue being addressed at the state level? What steps can farmers take to lessen or mitigate the impacts on workers? \nJoin us for a virtual lunchtime discussion with a group of panelists who’ll address this issue from the farmer\, farmworker\, and policy perspectives. \nInfo here.
