You know that small springtime pool of water in the woods that dries up in the summer? It is a critically important habitat for a number of insects and amphibians and it is called a vernal pool.

Join Dr. Aram Calhoun, professor of Wetland Ecology at the University of Maine, to learn about vernal pool ecology and what you can do to manage pools on your property. Dr. Calhoun also addresses what can be done at the municipal level to protect pools, and shares a new conservation tool for Maine homeowners and towns, the Special Area Management Plan for Vernal Pools in Maine.

Recorded on April 26, 2021 in Damariscotta, Maine.
