Over a maroon background, white text reads, "USACE partners with researchers from UMN Department of Forest Resources on new ecosystem study."

Through a new Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit, Forest Resources faculty members Rebecca Montgomery and Marcella Windmuller-Campione are partnering with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to study tree seedling survival rates in relation to soil, water, and inundation. This research aims to better understand how climate change impacts forests and how forest management practices can adapt to combat challenges caused by climate change.
