Seasonal Climate or Potential Fire in Savanna State Forest, Central MN

Date: 
06/2015
Disturbance Type: 
Unknown

ForWarn detected departure in the wetlands of the Savanna State Forest in Central Minnesota. The phenological period of the area is still at an anomalously wet spring which may be tied to the departure of vegetation greenness. Considering the anomaly is confined to the wetlands it is likely a change in seasonal climate rather than a disturbance. The area is public land, which may have been subjected to prescribed burns.
