[PCA] Today's PCA call - Addendum to Ecoregional Revegetation Application: > 40 plant attributes displayed

[emilyr at plantsocieties.org]

On todays call, speakers discussed the need for information on a wide
variety of plant attributes. This type of information can be found in the
Ecoregional Revegetation Application
<http://www.nativerevegetation.org/era/>  (ERA), which we brought to your
attention in an e mail yesterday. The list of plant species attributes
displayed is below. 

 

The ERA may contain solutions for many of the problems and data gaps
identified in today's call. The ERA is in being reviewed for local accuracy
by botanists in natural heritage programs, native plant societies, botanic
gardens and elsewhere.

 

I attach an updated information sheet on the ERA. 

 

Apologies for any duplicate postings of this e mail.
