Webinar information

Assisted migration of Coastal Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii, PSME) is increasingly used to introduce populations adapted to future heat and drought conditions into historically cooler regions. However, successful seed transfer must also account for current environmental constraints, particularly low temperature extremes that affect trees during the vulnerable establishment phase. In addition, drought is projected to intensify across the western United States, interacting with temperature stress, making it critical to evaluate tolerance to multiple stressors when selecting seed sources.

This webinar highlights new research which characterizes temperature and drought related traits across the native U.S. range of PSME to evaluate population suitability for assisted migration. Physiological, phenological, and morphological traits were measured in 23 populations (18 wild-collected and 5 orchard sources) in nursery trials and common garden field trials in Washington. Cold hardiness was quantified using controlled freeze tests and electrolyte leakage, budburst phenology was monitored weekly, and high-temperature thermotolerance was assessed to determine population-specific phenology and critical temperatures. Multivariate analyses linking these traits with provenance climate variables are used to identify climatic drivers of stress tolerance and potential trade-offs among traits.

Webinar information

Most consulting foresters look at their bank balance to see if they’re "doing okay." That’s a trap. If you aren’t tracking your burdened labor and direct expenses, your profitable timber sales are likely hiding the "loser" projects that are eating your margins.

In this session, we strip away the "back-of-the-envelope" math and replace it with a clinical look at your project performance. We’ll share how to stop "scope creep" from turning your expert advice into minimum-wage labor, and how to build a "Floor" for your pricing that ensures you never write a check to work for a client again.

What you will learn:

• The Floor vs. The Ceiling: Why following the neighbor's pricing is a death sentence for a growing firm.
• Menu Optimization: Identifying which services are "cash cows" and which are "subsidized hobbies".
• The Guardrail Strategy: Using data, not "niceness," to defeat scope creep and bill what you’re worth.

Is this technical session for you?

This webinar guides consulting foresters on how to replace "back of the envelope" estimates with precise job costing, ensuring you stop underpricing services and maximize project margins.

Webinar information

Forestry is entering a new digital era through the use of single-tree digital forest twins—virtual replicas of individual trees created from 3D point clouds and sensor data that mirror physical and biological conditions. These digital twins provide detailed, real-time insight into forest structure and health, enabling managers to make data-driven decisions for sustainability, productivity, and ecological balance. Central to their creation is LiDAR technology, which captures high-resolution forest measurements across scales. This webinar will demonstrate how digital forest twins are created from acquisition to GIS outputs.

Webinar information

The field of disaster preparedness and response has grown by leaps and bounds in recent years.

We have learned how to better coordinate our resources for emergency planning and response. We have even learned how to make our communities more resilient to future disasters. All the while, increasingly extreme events strike our nation every year. 

However, often overlooked are key questions about our urban forests: What do such events mean for our urban tree canopy? How should we manage it before a disaster strikes? What should we do with the wood waste afterwards? And how can we turn the substantial nuisance costs of woody debris removal and disposal into savings?

In this webinar, presenters will discuss the latest trends and techniques local communities can use to transform downed trees into a valuable community asset. Additionally, the speakers will discuss how having a robust urban wood utilization plan in place before a disaster strikes can conserve a community's precious time and other resources in the aftermath.

Is this webinar for you?

This webinar is intended for emergency management, public works, and municipal emergency department professionals. Urban foresters and those interested in how a city manages its wood in the wake of disasters will benefit from this webinar as well.
