There might be some of you that are interested in reading a short piece in a magazine about me and my research.. The article (PDF page 14), is published in The Transect, which is a magazine that covers the University of California Natural Reserve Systems, which:

“…is a gateway to the 35 reserves that encompass approximately 130,000 acres of protected natural land available for university-level instruction, research, and public outreach. Potential reserve users can search our online database of research projects and courses, and “travel” from one reserve to the next, gathering data relevant to their areas of interest. Most reserve pages feature site specs, habitat descriptions, a bibliography of current research and publications, a list of university courses, regional and trail maps, and descriptions of the K-12 outreach programs offered at each reserve.
…
The reserves vary in size, remoteness, degree of human impact, and ability to support use. Thirteen of 35 sites currently are, or are envisioned as, full-facility reserves, possessing the facilities, equipment, and professional staff necessary to support long-term research projects and multi-week field courses remote from campus services. Nine sites have or will have partial facilities and professional staff. The remaining sites lack improvements other than possible restrooms or trails; they typically share the facilities of a nearby campus or full-service reserve.”
