Fellows Linzen Zhao and Min Zhao, both urban forestry professionals from China, visited with Dr. Kathy Wolf at the University of Washington in Seattle. Dr. Wolf is known for her social science research on the human dimensions of urban forestry and urban greening.

Dr. Wolf graciously hosted the Fellows for three days, during which they discussed research, teaching, and projects. They met with graduate students and professors, as well as community members involved in urban planning. One of the most interesting events was meeting with landscape architects working on centennial planning for Seattle’s green spaces.

“Seattle is a very beautiful city with well designed and tended urban forest,” says Linsen. Heartfelt thanks go to Dr. Wolf for her collaboration. Click on Linsen and Kathy for more photos.
