Upcoming UMD Libraries event
Landscaping for biodiversity and ecosystem services
The University Libraries' Research Commons presents our upcoming STEAM Salon featuring Dr. Karin Burghardt. STEAM Salons are short, informal talks featuring University speakers who engage and inspire our university community with their research.
About the presentation:
Dr. Burghardt outlines ways that decisions within one's own personal scope of management (gardens, yards, parks, and other green spaces) alter plant/animal interactions and suggests tweaks that can be made to practices such as plant selection, yard care, and pest management practices to retain biodiversity and function in the spaces we inhabit everyday.
Support UMD researchers by attending their presentations! Faculty, staff, and students are all welcome. Please pass this email onto your colleagues, students, or groups. We hope to see you there
Date: Thursday, February 20
Time: 1-2P
