Santa Cruz Island Reserve

11 Jun, 07 PM - 15 Jun, 07 AM

Primary work will be maintaining a fertilization experiment onMalacothamnus fasciculatus var. nesioticus established 5/30/2006. The goal of the experiment is to see if augmenting natural pollination with hand-fertilizing flowers will increase viable seed production over natural levels in 2 wild populations and 1 restored population. The sites used will be at the restored Valley Anchorage Exclosure and the wild Cebada Ridge and Christy Bunkhouse populations. I will also be revisiting and monitoring survivorship of the Arabis hofmanii out-planting experiment started in Dec 2005 as part of previously described island-wide rare plant restoration project by USGS and NPS. Exact locations provided previously. General locations: Alberts Rd and Lagunitas Secas Rd. Time permitting, I will also revisit the M. fasciculatus out-planting sites: Valley Anchorage, Portezuela, European Field, and Bluebanks. I will also be working with Dieter Wilkens on his work. I am unsure of the proposed schedule at this time.
