Subject: Webinar
Description: This webinar will highlight key findings from more than a decade of research on pollinators in southeastern U.S. forests. Results from a recent survey of bees, hover flies, and butterflies from nineteen experimental forests across nine southeastern states will be discussed, including the roles ecoregion, landscape context, and seasonality play in shaping pollinator diversity and composition. The webinar will also discuss possible causes of observed declines in pollinator diversity within relatively undisturbed forests. It will identify the potential for forest management activities, including prescribed fire, to improve conditions for these critical organisms.
