Details
In 2020 lightning started fires that decimated
~1 million acres of California. Swanton Ranch was
badly burned but some areas
were protected from the fire. We
are studying how wildfire affects microbial
communities by comparing burned
and unburned lands.
These samples will be archived as a
frozen collection preserving a snap-shot
of California biodiversity. Join us!
What you will do:
1. Learn how to take biological
samples of soil at two depths
2. Collect!
3. Log and submit your data!
