Abstract
This project was completed as part of a partnership between Washington County and the University of Minnesota’s Resilient Communities Project (https://rcp.umn.edu/). The goal of this project was to explore the advantages and disadvantages of active land management and passive land management approaches. Washington County project leads Dan MacSwain and Connor Schaefer collaborated with a graduate student completing their Horticultural Science Master's Degree capstone project to build a resilience-based site assessment tool for common ecosystem types found in Washington County: upland prairie, oak savanna, deciduous forest, and palustrine wetland. A final student report, which includes the site-assessment tool, and a poster summarizing the project are available.
Description
