#Buffelgrass is an invasive grass that fuels wildfire, carrying it across SW desert landscapes with devastating results.
SaguaroNationalPark, Desert Museum & #USGS_SBSC studied 10 years of data to find the most effective removal strategies.

Congratulations! #USGS_SBSC Bridget Deemer's research, published in Global Biogeochemical Cycles, is featured in an AGU's Eos spotlight.
It is the first synthesis of inland water #greenhousegas emissions to use consistent global surface areas for all three GHGs (CO2, CH4, and N2O)
Find out how tradeoffs in traits related to water acquisition and use determine restoration outcomes across #RestoreNet in our new Journal of Applied Ecology paper led by Brad Butterfield USGS Arizona #USGS_SBSC besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.111…
Happy #WorldTurtleDay to turtle enthusiasts!
#USGS_SBSC researches threats to the Southwestern Pond Turtle in the western US to provide resource managers with information that can help protect them. 🐢
