Oak Origins: Discussing Evolution, Ecology, & The Future Of Forests With Dr. Andrew L. Hipp

  • Résumé

  • Oak trees are familiar and beloved by people worldwide. Not only are they embedded in our mythology as humans, but they have also fed us, housed us, lined our wine barrels, and kept us warm. So, how have they evolved over generations spanning millions of years, and how will they shape the forests of the future? Dr. Andrew L. Hipp, a naturalist and leading plant researcher, joins us to share his insights… As the Director of the Herbarium and Senior Scientist in Plant Systematics at The Morton Arboretum, Dr. Hipp utilizes molecular systematics, genomics, community ecology, and herbarium study to address various questions surrounding ecological restoration and community ecology. From oaks and sedges to the use of phylogenetic and trait diversity, Dr. Hipp’s passion for the outdoors is contagious. Whether you're a nature enthusiast or simply curious about the science behind our ecosystems, his insights promise to offer a fascinating look into the world of plantlife. Hit play to learn about: How oaks have developed and maintained diversity over time. The ways in which evolutionary history and ecology interact with each other. Fascinating facts about tree roots.
