NPAT Zoom Series – Climate, Water, Science and Society in 21st Century Texas – A Historical Perspective – April 11

April 11 @ 6:00 pm 7:00 pm

From our partners at the Native Prairies Association of Texas (NPAT). How will climate change impact Texas and the native prairie and savanna ecosystems? How do we plan restorations to be sustainable in 2050? Do we need to change our land management practices? The NPAT Fayette Prairie Chapter will host a year-long series of presentations to explore climate change and the implications for the Fayette Prairie ecosystem. Beginning with the climate models, this series will examine the forecasts within a historical context, then focus upon water resources, management practices, projected changes in tallgrass prairies and soil microbial structure, and end with restoration paradigms in a changing world.

This session will be presented by Jay Banner, Dept. of Earth & Planetary Sciences, University of Texas – Austin.
