Abstract
The mountains of Great Basin National Park represent important “natural laboratories” for studying the ecological and evolutionary consequences of past climate change. The Cottonwood Ecology group at Northern Arizona University is interested in examining whether genetic changes in Nevada’s cottonwood populations have resulted in the adaptation of dependent organisms to new hosts.
