SUMMARY:Partner Webinar: Wildfire Risk to Communities: New Features & Data
DESCRIPTION:Wildfire Risk to Communities (https://wildfirerisk.org) is a national tool with interactive maps\, charts\, and resources to help every community in the U.S. understand\, explore\, and reduce wildfire risk. In the fall of 2020\, the website was updated with new data and features\, including new map views and GIS data available for download. During this webinar\, see a demonstration of the Wildfire Risk to Communities and learn about data updates. Wildfire Risk to Communities was created by the USDA Forest Service under the direction of Congress and builds on nationwide LANDFIRE data. \nSpeakers: Kelly Pohl\, Communications & Policy Director\, Headwaters Economics\, Greg Dillon\, Spatial Fire Analyst\, U.S. Forest Service\, Frank Fay\, Applied Fire Ecologist\, U.S. Forest Service & Business Lead\, LANDFIRE\, Jim Menakis\, Fire Ecologist\, U.S. Forest Service\nSponsors: LANDFIRE\, The Nature Conservancy\, Headwaters Economics \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Partner Webinar: Forest Management in Wetlands and Conservation Status Focusing on Rare and Endangered Species
DESCRIPTION:What does endangered mean? How about threatened? Are those different? What do I have to do? This webinar will describe the Endangered Species Act and define terminology for the categories of rarity and the general regulations for each. By participating in this webinar you will learn the rare species that occur in the 14-county NC Woods for Wildlife focal area. You will also become familiar with your responsibilities for those species\, but more importantly your opportunities to benefit them. \nParticipants will also have the opportunity to put what they learn into context with a presentation focused on forest management with isolated wetlands\, their ecology\, and their broader connection with at risk wildlife like the Gopher Frog. Isolated wetlands are wetlands that are not directly connected to other water sources by creeks and streams. In the Southeast\, isolated wetlands naturally occur as vernal pools\, Carolina bays\, clay-based depressions\, and limesinks. The Gopher Frog is a rare species unique to the southeast that relies on isolated wetlands for its survival. The Gopher Frog’s ecology highlights the plight of isolated wetlands on the southeastern landscape and why they are important for biodiversity. \nPre-registration is not required.

SUMMARY:Partner Webinar: Woods for Wildlife: Native Plants of the Longleaf Pine Forest and Active Management of Early Successional Plant Communities
DESCRIPTION:Join others in learning about the high diversity of plant species characteristics of the longleaf pine ecosystem and how it supports the many common and unique wildlife species in these open forests dominated by a single tree. Participants will also learn how to maximize wildlife management goals through active management of early successional plant communities. Commonly referred to as early successional habitat\, these plant communities benefit a vast array of wildlife species including the northern bobwhite quail\, monarch butterfly\, and red-cockaded woodpecker. This webinar will address active management techniques and discuss some specific tips to reach one’s property objectives. \nNo registration is required. Join the webinar here.
