Role of Riparian Buffers in Watersheds and in Your Landscape

April 17th, 2023 1:00-2:00PM

Presented by: Juliana Barrett and Chet Arnold; UConn CLEAR Emeritus

In this presentation by Juliana Barrett and Chet Arnold we will explore what riparian buffers are and why they are a critical component of both our coastal and inland communities. Riparian buffers play a critical role in water quality and watershed protection, provide wildlife habitat, and assist with climate resilience. Because of the transitional nature of riparian buffers (wet to dry), these areas allow for a variety of non-traditional landscaping choices and designs that still allow for water access and water viewsheds.
