SUMMARY:Free Urban Forest Connections Webinar: Rx for Hot Cities: Urban Greening and Cooling to Reduce Heat-Related Mortality in Los Angeles and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:Edith de Guzman\, TreePeople & Los Angeles Urban Cooling CollaborativeDavid Eisenman\, UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine & UCLA Center for Public Health and DisastersLarry Kalkstein\, Applied Climatologists\, Inc. & Los Angeles Urban Cooling Collaborative \n\n\n\nExtreme heat and its health impacts are on the rise. Annually\, extreme heat already causes more deaths in the United States than all other weather-related causes combined\, with effects most pronounced in urban areas. Reducing urban heat exposure is an equity issue\, as low-income communities and communities of color are more likely to live in neighborhoods with older buildings\, low tree cover\, more heat-retaining surfaces\, and limited access to coping mechanisms such as air conditioning. In this webinar\, Edith de Guzman will introduce the efforts of the Los Angeles Urban Cooling Collaborative (LAUCC) — a multi-disciplinary\, national partnership of researchers and practitioners working to understand and implement urban cooling strategies in Los Angeles. Dr. David Eisenman will discuss heat-health impacts on the human body and how choices made in urban environments may prevent heat-related illness and death. Dr. Larry Kalkstein will present methods and findings of a recently-completed LAUCC modeling study revealing how various tree cover and solar reflectance “prescriptions” in L.A. could delay warming impacts and reduce heat-related mortality\, temperature\, humidity\, and oppressive air masses that lead to increased deaths\, and how this work could have relevance elsewhere.

SUMMARY:Free Webinar: Deciphering Plant Health and Vigor and their Effects on Pest Outbreaks
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever heard that a healthy plant is resistant to insects or that a stressed plant is more susceptible? Plant vigor and plant stress are commonly blamed for pest outbreaks but the research on this topic is not as clear cut. In this webinar\, Dr. David Held (Landscape Entomologist\, Auburn University) will explain the ideas of plant vigor and plant stress and how we expect plant feeding insects and mites respond to it. We will also explore how different groups of plant feeding insects (borers\, sap-suckers\, leaf chewers) respond to different states of plant health. This is a don’t miss webinar if you’ve ever used plant stress or vigor as a reason for a pest outbreak in woody plants. \n\n\n\nSpeaker: David Held\, PhD – Professor of Entomology\, Auburn University \n\n\n\n1 CEU with live broadcast.

SUMMARY:Free Utility Arborist Association Webinar: Do Utilities and Vegetation Management Contractors Really Need a Tree Risk Assessment Program?
DESCRIPTION:Vegetation can be a serious challenge for arborists and utilities\, causing service interruptions and even wildfires. Data-driven approaches based on reliable knowledge about the condition of vegetation support the transition from a cycle-based to condition and predictive-based maintenance\, increasing the process efficiency and safety. Satellite data and space technology made actionable via artificial intelligence allow to identify and prioritize critical segments of overhead lines affected by vegetation and improve tasking and reporting processes for arborists and utilities.  Presented by Mike Neal. \n\n\n\nCEUs will be available with live broadcast.
