California Ecology and Conservation Research 

California Ecology and Conservation Research is a collection of the final papers produced by each California Ecology and Conservation class. Research projects are conducted largely independently under the guidance of instructors. Students plan each study, conduct the field research, analyze the results, and write up their findings as a formal research paper.

Papers are lightly edited and reformatted for publication. Each paper has been assigned a digital object identifier (doi) to facilitate bibliographic referencing.

Students may cite these papers as examples of their work when applying for employment, graduate school, scholarships, awards, or other endeavors.
