Description:
Storms are a significant part of our decisions about how to manage urban trees. We invite you to participate in an important survey about urban forest management and storms. This research is important to better understand professionals' risk perceptions, communication needs, opportunities for collaboration, and general challenges with managing urban forests for storm events.
This survey specifically targets urban forestry and arboriculture professionals who work in the Southern and Eastern Regions of the US (Forest Service Regions 8 and 9 - see below). This project is TREE Fund-sponsored research led by Mysha Clarke, faculty at the University of Florida, and Ph.D. Candidate Stephanie Cadaval.
The survey is completely voluntary and will take ~ 15 minutes of your time. You can withdraw consent by stopping the survey at any time. This survey is approved by the University of Florida's IRB.
