Matt Berger has hiked from the lowest to the highest points of Death Valley National Park, observing and recording flora throughout its diverse environments. Matt will provide an overview of the biogeography and microhabitats of the park, and will share his photos of the limestone endemics and other rare plants. We hope to hear a few of his secrets to finding rare plants in the desert and mountains.
Matt will be preceded by the recipient of the CNPS SCV 2019 Graduate Research Scholarship, Lacey Benson. She attends San Jose State University and doing a morphometric analysis comparing western sword fern (Polystichum munitum) pinnae size across the coast redwood ecological gradient.
