"Cottonwood Stories" A Special Presentation in Honor of Tu B’shvat

Thursday, Jan 28, 7:00 - 8:30pm

Jonathan Friedman studies trees along rivers in the western United States with the U.S. Geological Survey. To help celebrate Tu B'shevat, he will discuss the cottonwood forests along our dryland rivers, how the taming of the rivers and climate change have affected the forests, challenges from invading trees and insects, and the stories tree rings tell about the last three centuries of droughts and floods.  Jonathan gets anxious talking to an empty screen, so please bring your questions.
