New Santa Rosa Updates
Santa Rosa Island research has gone well and progress is being made though it is slow. Trips being spaced so far apart as well as class and work makes getting out to the island difficult. Over the past several trips somewhere in the range of 600 trees have been counted. Since this post I have been to the island 2 times. One time I was out and was only able to get to the research site for one day due to illness. The second time I was given a research assistant and was able to count about 230 trees. This is the map from that trip.
