Science: Reinhard Stettler: Lessons from the Cottonwood
The story of the cottonwood, whose life cycle is so closely attuned to the rivers natural dynamics and fluctuating floodplains, is one of perpetual change. But then, in a broader sense, so is the story of all trees, and all kinds of life, says Reinhard Stettler, professor emeritus of forestry at the University of Washington and author of Cottonwood and the River of Time. By examining how trees adapt and persist, as well as how science can help us understand it, Stettler asserts we just might learn how to preserve and manage our forests for an uncertain future. Presented as part of Seattle Science Lectures, with Pacific Science Center and University Book Store. Sponsored by Microsoft.
