SUMMARY:Program: The Baltimore Woods Story: Saving a Native Woods in an Urban Setting
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, January 9\, 7:00 pm\nProgram: The Baltimore Woods Story: Saving a Native Woods in an Urban Setting\nPresenters: Lisa Manning and Jim Barnas\, Friends of Baltimore Woods Board Members\nLocation: Zoom\, register here \nThe 30-acre Baltimore Woods Connectivity Corridor fills a critical gap in the Willamette Greenway and regional 40-Mile Loop bicycling and walking trails\, situated between Cathedral and Pier Parks in North Portland. This unique urban greenway\, recognized for its special habitat value to plants and wildlife\, faces threats from invasive species and development pressures that could eventually spoil its natural value. Learn how a neighborhood stepped into the position of preserving and restoring this important native habitat. Register to attend the Zoom program here.

SUMMARY:Program: "Look Around You: The Story of the Wollemi Pine ."
DESCRIPTION:Monday January 13  7:30 – 8:30 pm \nProgram: “Look Around You: The Story of the Wollemi Pine .”\nSpeaker: Aaron Liston\nLocation: Cordley Hall Room 2602\, Corvallis or by Zoom\n  \n\nThirty years ago\, a new genus and species of conifers was discovered in Wollemi National Park in eastern Australia. Previously known only from the paleontological record\,Wollemia nobilis can be considered a living fossil\, and represents the most significant botanical discovery of the past 50 years. With only 60 individuals that are genetically nearly identical\, the wild population is also at risk from pathogens and wildfire. Fortunately\, ex situ conservation efforts have distributed the Wollemi pine around the world\, including one on the OSU campus.\nDr. Aaron Liston\, OSU Herbarium Director\, will describe this spectacular discovery and his own experience with the Wollemi pine (and explain why it is called a pine despite not being a pine).  We will also visit the tree on campus – bring a flashlight.\n\n\nTo attend via Zoom\, register in advance here:\nhttps://oregonstate.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJwtfu6upzIqG9AP-u94g3-4OzoZ4cCn7-8k\nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.

SUMMARY:Program: Stochasticity in Plant Communities Year Effects and Priority Effects in Recovery from Disturbance.
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, January 16\, 2025\, 7:00 pm\nProgram: Stochasticity in Plant Communities Year Effects and Priority Effects in Recovery from Disturbance.\nSpeaker: Chhaya Werner\, Ph.D\nLocation: In-person presentation at our chapter meeting at Southern Oregon University Science Building\, Room 161. Join us in-person or via Zoom from home.  To register for Zoom\, go to https://bit.ly.npsotalks. \nAs we work to understand and predict ecological interactions in plant communities\, we find that timing is an incredibly important component in recovery from disturbance or drought\, and the impact and outcome of restoration projects. In particular\, the timing and year of community assembly—year effects—and the order of species arrival—priority effects—can have large and lasting impacts on plant communities. We will explore the theory behind these ideas and observations of their impacts in systems including post-fire recruitment\, dam removal\, and restoration planting. \nDr. Chhaya Werner is an Assistant Professor of Ecology in the department of Environmental Science\, Policy & Sustainability at Southern Oregon University. Her PhD work at the University of California\, Davis examined the impacts of fire\, drought\, and priority effects on plant communities\, advised by Dr. Truman Young and Dr. Susan Harrison. Her postdoctoral research included developing methods to quantify species interactions in diverse communities\, applied to patterns of coexistence in California grasslands. Her current research focuses on mechanisms underpinning plant community dynamics in fire-dependent systems\, mountain meadows\, and the Klamath reservoirs.

SUMMARY:Presentation: Rivers to Ridges Partnership: Past\, Present\, and Future 
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, January 20\, 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm\nTitle: Rivers to Ridges Partnership: Past\, Present\, and Future \nPresenter: Fraser McDonald\, Willamalane Parks and Recreation District\nLocation: Amazon Community Center\, 2700 Hilyard St.\, Eugene \nFraser is a natural resource planner at Willamalane Park and Recreation District in Springfield\, Oregon\, where he designs\, plans\, and implements natural resource management and recreation projects like trail planning and construction and habitat restoration. Prior to working for Willamalane\, he worked for Lane County Parks\, Lane Council of Governments\, Lane Community College\, and Long Tom Watershed Council. Fraser has a master’s degree in community and regional planning from University of Oregon and a B.S. in natural resource management from University of Nebraska-Lincoln. \nThe Rivers to Ridges Partnership is a voluntary partnership of nineteen organizations that work collaboratively to advance the protection\, restoration\, and effective management of park and open space resources in the southern Willamette Valley. Through the combined efforts of our partners\, a significant amount of what was envisioned in the 2003 Rivers to Ridges vision has been implemented\, and a “Vision Refresh” process was recently completed to look forward to what might be possible in our community moving forward over the next 20 years. Join Fraser MacDonald as he shares some of the exciting history of the partnership\, where it is headed in the next twenty years\, and what opportunities it might create for NPSO members.
