Since 2004 Yana has led a monitoring and management program for sudden oak death in the North Coast and for this program she will provide an opportunity for Southern Humboldt residents to hear how this disease is reshaping our forests, and to discuss the future of tanoak in our region. Yana is also is a registered professional forester and forest scientist whose skills and interests cover a wide set of natural resource fields including forest health, forest management, and fire ecology.
