In this conversation, we dive into the fascinating world of forest physiology with Lucy Penn Kerhoulas, an Associate Professor in the Department of Forestry, Fire, and Rangeland Management at Cal Poly Humboldt.

How do trees and forests use water? How does human activity affect these crucial ecosystems? Lucy joins us to explain…

Jump in to explore:

Restoration efforts to improve redwood forests in Northern California.
Why fuel reduction is so important to reduce fire hazards.
How humans affect water accessibility for forest environments.
Different diseases that cause trees to die.

Lucy gathers information on the coniferous forests of the western U.S. using various methods. From tree climbing to measuring gas exchange and stable isotopes of wood, she is dedicated to discovering how water use and carbon storage impact forest systems – and how to preserve these vital ecosystems for generations to come.
