Urban Forests and Communities: Connected for a Resilient Future
As cities grow, the spaces between built landscapes and natural systems are continuously shifting, reshaping urban environmental conditions including temperature, air quality, and soil health.
The results are compounding stressors that impair urban forest functions and their intricate ecosystems’ ability to respond and recover. This, in turn, affects everyday quality of life for people in cities.
We launched our first project last Spring 2025…
We’re excited to share a few updates
A project page has been launched on iNaturalist for Albertans to share, record, and report their observations:
‘Emerald Ash Borer Monitoring in Alberta’
Please visit and register!
AND
A double-sided Pest ID Monitoring card can be downloaded to your iPhone and/or printed to carry with you.
It will help you identify ash trees and signs and symptoms of emerald ash borer and Dutch elm disease.
