SUMMARY:Free TREE Fund Webinar: Sidewalks\, Urban Plazas and Tree Roots
DESCRIPTION:Tree growth in urban areas is most limited by the lack of soil volume available for root development. This talk will discuss these limitations and share the results of research that compares different below grade treatments. The research studies are a ten-year comparison of four different treatments and a three-year comparison of six different treatment. The treatment can make a significant difference in root development and above ground tree characteristics as will be shown in photographs and with growth data. \n\n\n\nE. Thomas Smiley\, PhD\, Bartlett Tree Research Lab \n\n\n\nThis webinar is co-sponsored by the Alabama Cooperative Extension System and ISA Southern Chapter \n\n\n\n1 CEU with live broadcast.

SUMMARY:Free Webinar from ISA Michigan: Getting the Most Out of Tree Injections
DESCRIPTION:The use of tree and trunk injections by tree service companies has increased rapidly in recent years.  A variety of compounds including nutrients\, insecticides\, and fungicides can be effectively applied via the tree’s vascular system.  Achieving rapid uptake and distribution of injected chemicals within trees\, however\, can sometimes be difficult.  Dr. Bert Cregg (Michigan State University\, Departments of Horticulture and Forestry) will discuss how soil\, tree\, and weather interact to control sap flow and will provide tips to ensure optimal uptake during injection applications. \n\n\n\nSpeaker: Bert Cregg\, Ph.D. \n\n\n\nDr. Bert Cregg is a Professor of Horticulture and Forestry at Michigan State University. He holds a doctorate in Forest Resources from the University of Georgia.  Dr. Cregg’s lab conducts research on the physiology and management of trees in landscape\, nursery and Christmas tree systems.  Prior to joining the faculty at MSU he was a research plant physiologist for the US Forest Service and International Paper.     \n\n\n\n1 CEU \n\n\n\nMust register beforehand to get the zoom link.

SUMMARY:Urban Forest Connections Webinar: Addressing Tree Canopy Loss through Stronger Ordinances and other Policy Tools
DESCRIPTION:Karen Cappiella\, Center for Watershed ProtectionLydia Scott\, Chicago Region Trees Initiative \n\n\n\nAcross the country\, a number of cities are setting ambitious tree canopy goals to fight the trend of a decline in tree canopy. Among the many causes of canopy loss\, development is a key driver\, and is one that communities can significantly influence through local codes\, ordinances and other planning tools. In 2018\, the Center for Watershed Protection released the guide “Making your Community Forest-Friendly: A Worksheet for Review of Municipal Codes and Ordinances” to help communities better address these challenges. In this webinar\, Karen Cappiella of the Center for Watershed Protection will provide an overview of this tool and share a related research project that is being conducted in the Delaware River watershed. Lydia Scott of the Chicago Region Trees Initiative will share successful strategies and lessons learned from efforts to help strengthen tree preservation ordinances across the 284 municipalities in the Chicago region and also across the state of Illinois. \n\n\n\n1.25 CEU’s with live broadcast.
