Sierra Nevada Aquatic Research Laboratory

02 Apr, 05 PM - 07 Apr, 01 PM

Students from an independent high school in San Francisco will explore the natural resources of the eastern Sierra Nevada, with a focus on water. They will learn how precipitation, along with temperature and other factors, shape dominant plant communities, and how invasive species are impacting Sierran ecosystems. They will spend time at Mono Lake learning about it's history, politics, and ecological significance. They will visit Fish Slough and learn about it's importance to native Americans and desert fish, and hopefully participate in restoration efforts there. They will also spend downtime experiencing and appreciating the beauty of the area. We will be out in the field during the days, but will use the dorms and cooking facilities at SNARL, and hopefully lab/classroom space for pre- and post-activity discussions (as available).
