 GpqD0qHdQREe-lzmKCQHrnOlO_EgSK\n\nJoin WRI and the Methow Conservancy to l
 earn about how plants are coping with climate change.\n\nMany plant specie
 s are shifting their geographic distributions north or to higher elevation
 s to keep up with a changing climate. However\, many species are not movin
 g\, leaving them at risk as the climate warms. Why are these plants not ab
 le to make the move? Dr. Nathalie Chardon spent the last summer in the fie
 ld (along with many Conservancy volunteers!) gathering data to help answer
  this question.\n\nDr. Chardon visited a large variety of field sites in t
 he North Cascades and cataloged how localized variability in habitat affec
 ts seed germination and seedling survival rates. In order for a species to
  make the move to cooler locations\, their seeds must be able to germinate
  and thrive in local environments that don't necessarily align with their 
 regional climate. Beyond climate\, things like carbon content of soil\, sh
 elter\, moisture\, etc. affect plant success. Because of this\, examining 
 differences in localized habitat can help us learn why some plants can mov
 e\, and others cannot. Dr. Chardon's talk will explore which plants in the
  Cascades are likely to be successful in a changing climate\, and which pl
 ants are too constrained by their localized habitat requirements.\n\nAn ec
 ologist at the University of British Columbia\, Dr. Chardon's work is part
  of a multi-year study of plant communities in the Methow Valley and Mt Ba
 ker in collaboration with the University of Washington.
