NRS Featured in Desert Report

March 5, 2013 By Kathleen Wong

DR_cover_mar2013The desert reserves of the UC Natural Reserve System receive a well-deserved day in the sun in the latest issue of Desert Report newsletter.

Written by NRS science writer Kathleen M. Wong, the article retells the story of the origins of the NRS and its unique role in research, education, and teaching. The story describes Boyd Deep Canyon Reserve, Burns Piñon Ridge Reserve, Steele-Burnand Anza-Borrego Desert Research Center, Sweeney Granite Mountains Desert Research Center, and White Mountain Research Center.

Published by the Sierra Club California/Nevada Desert Committee, Desert Report is a 24-page newsletter about California and Nevada deserts.
