Using Science to Guide Conservation<\/h2>\n

\"Misty<\/p>\n

Misty Buchanan<\/strong>, Deputy Director for Natural Heritage, Division of Land and Water Stewardship, NC Department of Natural and Cultural Resources<\/p>\n

The Natural Heritage Program is a small state program with a big mission: to inventory North Carolina\u2019s natural areas and use the information to create a network of nature preserves that will protect our natural heritage for future generations. Misty Buchanan will discuss current research and conservation projects, including how field biologists explore and document North Carolina\u2019s flora and fauna; how we determine which species are common and secure vs. rare and imperiled; and how the Natural Heritage Program works across North Carolina to create land conservation agreements with government agencies, land trusts and private landowners.<\/p>\n
