UWP announces new School of Education director Archives Atom News Feed Friday, July 21, 2006 Biology students experience desert ecology firsthand PLATTEVILLE - On May 22, University of Wisconsin-Platteville professors of biology, Beth Frieders and Jeff Huebschman, along with 16 students, headed west with dreams of desert destinations and firsthand experiences. For 20 days, professors and students camped in the deserts of southwest America while becoming familiar with the plants and animals of desert habitats, and collecting data for research projects. The trip is part of a 3-credit desert ecology course, attracting students from the teaching education program, biology majors wanting field experience, and those hoping to go on to graduate school. Frieders said, "The off-campus courses are a great experience for students because they travel to a part of the world they may not have seen, or to which they may not consider going on their own. The full-time hands-on intensity of the course allows students to learn and retain more information in general, to see, smell, touch and hear the live plants and animals rather than just read about them and see dead specimens."

RSS Feeds Desert Ecology/Dougals Springs/Tanque Verde Trails Saguaro National Monument East, Tucson By Lisa DeForest azcentral.com Jun. 15, 2006 01:12 PM The Desert Ecology Trail, a few miles from the visitors center, is an easy, quarter-mile loop hike, and wheelchair accessible. It is a self-guiding trail with shaded resting benches and interpretive signs, explaining how plants and animals survive with limited water in the Sonoran Desert. You'll see saguaro, barrel, prickly pear, cholla and ocotillo cactus, and palo verde and mesquite trees. Desert animals that live in the area and are described on the signs include rattlesnakes, desert tortoises, lizards, coyotes and rabbits. Several longer hikes, including THE DOUGLAS SPRINGS TRAIL and the TANQUE VERDE RIDGE TRAIL penetrate the backcountry of the Rincon Mountain Wilderness. Vegetation changes dramatically from the hot, dry saguaro forest at 2,700 feet to the cool, moist pines of Mica Mountain at 8,666 feet. In between are several plant and animal communities. The 6,000 foot vertical elevation change parallels the difference between northern Mexico and southern Canada.

contact us login Environment Protection Environmental Rock Art,Ruins,etc. Ecology Introduction Cryptobiotic Soil Pothole Ecology Geology Rock Strata Varnish / Colors Biology Plants Arthropods Reptiles/Amphib Mammals ... Birds ECOLOGY Introduction Deserts form when weather patterns and/or geographic land forms create an environment where lack of water limits biotic productivity. Water may exist in an unusable form such as ice, or may be absent altogether. Frequently, potential evapotranspiration exceeds annual precipitation. There are four basic types of desert: high pressure, rain shadow, interior continental and coastal. The desert here in southeast Utah, however, defies simple categorization. The Colorado Plateau Some consider the Colorado Plateau to be a northern extension of the high-pressure Sonoran desert. Others consider it to be an eastern extension of The Great Basin, a desert in the rain shadow of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. High pressure deserts generally form at the middle latitudes (30 degrees) in each hemisphere where warm, dry air masses descend toward the earth's surface. Rain shadow deserts form in localized high pressure zones caused by warm, dry air descending from mountain ranges. The Colorado Plateau is also in the interior of a large continent, far away from significant water sources. Each of these factors contributes to the arid climate of the Colorado Plateau.

These regions make up about 1/3 of the earth's surface. Deserts are moving all the time due to continental drift and growing mountain ranges. Deserts are found between 15 and 30 degrees north and south of the equator. Deserts vary in age.
