smithsonian environmental research centerWhat happens when you take acres of abandoned farm fields and plant a forest on top of them? In spring 2013, scientists and volunteers at the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center planted 20,000 trees as part of a massive experiment known as BiodiversiTREE. Now starting its tenth year, the project has become the largest experiment on tree diversity and ecosystem function in North America.

Speakers: Rachel King and Jamie Pullen of the SERC Terrestrial Ecology Lab will make an interesting presentation about this experiment.

Free, but advance registration is required.
