It’s one of our favorite times of the year at Save the Redwoods League: When proposals start arriving for Redwood Connect Grants. We’re always inspired by the diversity of projects and the inventive ideas for providing young people with meaningful …
The League is thrilled to once again offer starter grants to underrepresented graduate and undergraduate students to nurture a diversity of perspectives in redwoods research. We have selected nine interesting and well-designed projects that will increase knowledge of the effects of climate change and fire on forest communities and allow us to better understand the interactions of life within redwood forests.
How much carbon do coast redwood trees store? Researchers have shown that 3D models generated from light detecting and ranging (LiDAR) technology may provide accurate estimates.
Bats are a top conservation priority. Not only are these fascinating mammals vulnerable to climate change, but many species around the world are also falling victim to a fungal disease called white-nose syndrome. New research funded by Save the Redwoods League suggests that coast redwood forests may offer bats refuge from both of these threats.

Research funded by Save the Redwoods League suggests that programs designed to help reduce jay populations in areas where marbled murrelets nest, including old-growth coast redwood forests, will give these threatened seabirds a better chance at successful reproduction.
Anna Doty, PhD, led a study of California myotis bats in the South Fork region of Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Park following the SQF Complex fire.
The wildland-urban interface, or WUI, is the zone where a forest meets land that has been altered or developed by people. Scientists have learned that “edge effects” can occur at these boundaries. A subdivision or logging operation at the WUI, …
In 25 years of granting, scientific findings inform stewardship and land management efforts in both forest ranges
Changes will make League’s grants more community-driven and equitable
Save the Redwoods League announces Redwood Connect grantees
Save the Redwoods League awarded nearly $160,000 in grant funding for 2021 research projects in California that will contribute to the growing body of knowledge about coast redwood and giant sequoia forests.
When we take a close look at what makes redwoods survive and thrive, the trees have remarkable stories to tell. That’s what researchers discovered thanks to three studies supported by research grants from Save the Redwoods League over the past …
