Описание: For this first webinar of the series, BCP biologist Jim O’Donnell will introduce the Forest Restoration Series and BCP biologist Lisa O’Donnell will present Historical Ecology of the Texas Hill Country. Managing and restoring habitat for endangered species begins with an understanding of how past events and natural processes have shaped our present-day ecosystems (and perceptions). We will explore the ecological history of the Texas Hill Country, along with the common myth that the Hill Country was originally an extensive grassland. We will review historical documents within the context of major historical events, ecoregions, and the Balcones Escarpment, a geologic fault zone that separates the Blackland Prairie from the Hill Country. We will then take a closer look at the history of the Vireo Preserve, a 214-acre tract within the Balcones Canyonlands Preserve, over the last century. A written report of the Historical Ecology presentation is available here.
