Event Description

Date: Tuesday October 20, 2015

Time: 12 pm – 1 pm MST

Recent elevated dieback of aspen after severe droughts in the 2000s has prompted concern about the future of aspen in a changing climate. I will give an overview of what we know and don't know about drought stress on aspen physiology and mortality, and what this means for the future of aspen forests in a changing climate.

Dr. William Anderegg. Dr. Anderegg is an assistant professor in the Department of Biology at the University of Utah.
