Dr. Kosiba will explain how tree canopies, roots, and forest floors work together to slow, spread, and sink water—reducing soil erosion, downstream flooding, and infrastructure damage. She’ll highlight practical steps landowners, municipalities, and conservation groups can take to strengthen forests’ ability to buffer heavy rains and support climate-resilient landscapes. |

We will look at topographical maps of our region to understand the drainage areas of familiar streams and they connect to form the Winooski River watershed, then zoom in on downtown Montpelier to explore how water flows through a developed landscape. Finally, we'll learn about the work being done by the Winooski Flood Resilience Collaborative to help our watershed communities work together to seek nature-based solutions to climate change challenges. |
