Tuesday, February 15th @ 5:00-6:30 p.m.

Our final webinar in the AM&RC series will consider conservation approaches needed to protect the critical habitat needed by pool-breeding amphibians.

First, we’ll learn about a recent study that investigated vernal pools across New York State. Dr. Matt Schlesinger will share key findings from that study, including indicators of vernal pool significance for conservation of amphibian biodiversity at local and landscape scales. We’ll then hear from Dr. Aram Calhoun about a new, locally driven, voluntary vernal pool mitigation tool called the Maine Vernal Pool Special Area Management Plan (or SAMP) currently adopted by two Maine towns.
