Great insights by @adammarkham.bsky.social on Washington’s urban tree futures, highlighting species transitions, climate stress impacts, and strategies for resilient city forests. Essential read for urban forestry enthusiasts.

Fascinating dive into the status and future of Washington's urban trees, as well as plans to manage stock and transition species, as climate change stresses some natives including sugar maple and pin oak. 🌎 🍂

🌿Not all trees spring to life the same way in cities. It’s the mix of tree species—not just the heat—that shapes how urban forests respond to warming #UrbanForests #ClimateChange #TreeScience

A new video by the Morton Arboretum on what an herbarium is... timely, given what's going on at Duke.

We can't take collections for granted.
