Resurrection ecology comes to GCE
Megan Vahsen and collaborators joined the GCE fall monitoring effort this year and collected some cores in stands of Scirpus/Schoenoplectus/Bolboschoenus (taxonomists can't decide). The goal is to find and germinate old seeds in order to see how plant traits have evolved over time. This trip is a proof of concept to see if the approach works in the GCE domain as well as it does elsewhere.
