Floristics in the Alpine Zone of the Cascade-Sierran Axis: Is There a Continuum? Date: February 16, 2022 Time: 7-9 pm Climate change has resulted in an elevational retreat of endemic alpine flora and has further reduced the already limited habitats of the alpine zone. Our speaker's graduate thesis project aims to evaluate whether endemic alpine flora between the southern Cascades and the northern Sierra Nevada are capable of migration to determine potential areas of conservational priority. Our speaker is originally from Oahu. She earned her bachelor’s degree from WWU in the spring of 2019. She is currently a graduate student in the Biology Department at WWU, under the guidance of botanist Michael Williams.
