The Trees Around the GLOBE Student Research Campaign will be hosting the webinar: “The State of Trees – February 2023: Local Comparisons of Change Over Time for Land Cover and Tree Height and a Call to Students!” on Tuesday, 14 February, at 02:00 p.m. ET (07:00 p.m. UTC/08:00 p.m. CET).

The webinar, which will be the 54th webinar for the campaign, will focus on country comparisons of land cover and tree heights using online data mapping tools that the campaign has highlighted often. Peder Nelson (Oregon State University) will present on, and lead a discussion thinking about, the growth rate of trees over time with the context of "Does your city/town have a tree plan?" Following this, the webinar will put out a call to all our campaign students (and teachers) to interview elders in their community about the local changes in land cover and tree height over the last 10, 20, 50 years.
