"Wetland Jewels of the Gila"
Friday, June 16, 2023, 07:00pm |
On Friday, June 16, 2023, at 7:00 pm, the Gila Native Plant Society will sponsor an online presentation entitled "Wetland Jewels of the Gila" by Steven Fry of the Amigos Bravos organization. As always, the public is welcome. Anyone interested in attending the Zoom presentation may request a link from gilanative@gmail.com.
Steven explains: The Wetland Jewels is a project by Amigos Bravos and partners to identify keystone wetlands in the Gila watershed that provide critical ecosystem function for wildlife and human uses of the watershed. Stakeholder outreach was conducted to solicit watershed users' input on desired watershed functions and that input was used by St. Mary's University to analyze the National Wetland Inventory mapping to identify the "Wetland Jewels of the Gila." The presentation will provide a quick background on the project's processes and show a preliminary identification of the "Jewels."
