Adapting Management of Spring Ecosystems During Drought
Channel: Conservation and Adaptation Resources Toolbox
Date: 2021-07-26

The Sky Island region of southeastern Arizona and northern Mexico is a world-renowned biodiversity hotspot where the Chihuahuan and Sonoran Deserts meet the Rocky Mountains and Sierra Madre. This arid landscape is home to thousands of springs that sustain a vast diversity of life that are threatened by the warming, drying climate and prolonged exceptional drought in the region. During this webinar, Louise will discuss what Sky Island Alliance is learning about spring ecosystems from surveys and monitoring, management tools they have developed to support stewardship of springs, and responses practitioners can take to protect and restore springs to ensure they sustain a diversity of life.
