Oak Salvage Project

ºìÐÓ¶ÌÊÓƵ University Professors Karen Arabas, Joe Bowersox & David Craig hope to salvage data from some of the hundreds of old Oregon oaks that have been damaged in the February 2021 ice storm. These trees are iconic in the ºìÐÓ¶ÌÊÓƵ Valley and contain valuable information in their tree rings about past climate and other environmental conditions.
