Annual Physiological Ecology meetings, held at OVL every June

Barcroft Winter Operations WMRS would like to move toward keeping the Barcroft Station open year-round. The winter 2003-04 season was a test case. Although the test season was highly successful, there are many financial, logistical and safety issues to be resolved.

Cottonwood blotch-miner moth project Some notes and photos of the tiny Phyllonorycter moth which attacks cottonwood foliage in Bishop and prevents the fall colors from developing.

GLORIA project In 2004, WMRS and the USFS established monitoring sites in the Eastern Sierra and the White Mountains to GLORIA, a world-wide long-term observation network in alpine environments.

Owens River Post-fire Succession A series of fires in the past few years have created a mosaic of successional stages in the riverine vegetation, as documented in this photo-mosaic.

Saltbush leaf beetle project A series of notes and photographs about an abundant but tiny Monoxia beetle that feeds on Saltbush (Atriplex lentiformis ssp. torreyi, Big Saltbush) near the OVL station.

The Sierra Rotors (T-REX) Project is an NSF-funded project to study mountain-wave induced rotors in the lee of the Sierra Nevada in Owens Valley. The rotors, intense horizontal vorticies with strong turbulence, can pose severe aeronautical hazards. This project, involving aircraft and ground sampling, will use WMRS as the flight operations center in March-April 2006.
