Subject: Mono Basin Clearinghouse Updates for April 2, 2002
Dear Friends,
Just a couple of new additions to www.monobasinresearch.org this month:
-------------------------------------------------------
ONLINE REPORTS
-------------------------------------------------------
PRBO Eastern Sierra Riparian Songbird Conservation Project 2001 Progress Report
Yet another report on the ESRSCP. This one is big, a 7 MB download, and some of
the y-axis labels on graphs did not turn out so well. Still, fascinating results
that really make a lot of sense based on the habitat and disturbance histories
of the different Mono Basin creeks. See http://www.monobasinresearch.org/onlinereports/esrscp.htm
Also, we posted photos of PRBO researchers, birds, and kids at one of their
sites on Lee Vining Creek. See the page above, scroll to the bottom to see the
photos, and click on the photo to enlarge it and see the caption. Thanks to
Sacha Heath for helping with the captions.

CURRENT RESEARCH
-------------------------------------------------------
Mono Lake Microbial Observatory 3 Year Annual Report
Includes list of publications and works in preparation.
See http://www.monobasinresearch.org/research/microbial/index.html
-------------------------------------------------------
RAW DATA
-------------------------------------------------------
March 2002 Lee Vining Weather Summary.
It was the coldest and windiest March in the last 3 years.
See http://www.monobasinresearch.org/data/weather.htm
-------------------------------------------------------
ALSO OF INTEREST
-------------------------------------------------------
...but not on the Clearinghouse (from the Yosemite Association's Sierra Nature
Notes):
Low risk of getting Giardiasis from Sierra water--you are more likely to get it
from your campmates! Also new on the Sierra Nature Notes site is an article on
Sierra Bighorn Sheep by John Wehausen. Read the Giardia article at http://www.yosemite.org/naturenotes/Giardia.htm
