Zoom presentation by Abby Pointer of the Michigan Nature Association.
Vernal pools, small forested wetlands that seasonally fill with water, are critical for maintaining forest ecosystem health and biodiversity. In this presentation we will go over the basics of vernal pool ecology, explore why vernal pools are important, and discuss what we are doing in Michigan to conserve them. This presentation will also discuss how you can help by participating in community science!
