“Climate Change in the Driftless Area” – Conservation on Tap
November 12 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
FreeThe Driftless Area has become warmer and wetter over the past several decades. Seasonal changes include increased temperatures, particularly in winter and spring, with fewer days of extreme cold. Precipitation has increased with more frequent, extreme rainfall events during the summer interspersed with periods of drought. Future climate scenarios suggest that these trends will continue. Dr. Joan Bunbury is a professor of geography and environmental science at the University of Wisconsin – La Crosse.
Conservation on Tap is a FREE presentation series by experts on various aspects of Driftless area ecology and conservation. The goal of the series is to increase knowledge, connection to, and awareness of current conservation efforts and research.
