The Northeast Urban Silviculture workshop focused on oak forests in cities along a north-south gradient in the eastern United States and involved scientists and land managers in a facilitated workshop with the goal of developing a replicated long-term ecological study. Impacts were defined as the direct and indirect consequences of climate change and urbanization on forests. Impacts could be beneficial or harmful to a particular forest or ecosystem type and the magnitude of those impacts depend on the sensitivity of the forest to change. Rankings were identified on a scale from “Low” to “High” (Supplementary Material). Vulnerability, which we define as a function of a forest’s potential impacts and adaptive capacity, is the susceptibility of a system to the adverse effects of urbanization and/or climate change
