Ashlan Alldredge has been a student intern and worker for the Center all year. This summer, after his graduation, he will be working with CCBER full time, growing wetland plants for the new North Parcel project. We are fortunate to have been able to work with this enthusiastic student and are thrilled that his involvement with the Center will continue.
After two years at UCSB, Restoration Assistant Barbara Going has left Santa Barbara to pursue graduate studies at UC Davis. She is preparing to set up experiments that will take place this fall at Sedgwick, McLaughlin, and Big Creek reserves, in which she will look at the effects of water and competition from non-native grasses on the performance of serpentine endemics both on and off serpentine. She was awarded a Mathias grant for this project as well as a prestigious NSF fellowship. Congratulations Barbara!
Jim Markham, UCSB Librarian Emeritus, has retired after more than 20 years at Davidson Library as science and German cataloger and biology, marine science, and German librarian. He is now pursuing his original career in marine botany with a specialty in seaweeds. Jim joins Algae Curator David Chapman at CCBER as Assistant Curator of the Algal Herbarium.
Janet Myers, Restoration Coordinator, joined the CCBER staff in 2006. She oversees restoration activities and an active intern program at Manzanita Village student housing.
Chris Walden, (M.A. Botany, UCSB, 1993), has joined CCBER as a volunteer in the Herbarium, collecting and curating the Arroyo Hondo Preserve and Sedgwick Reserve specimens.
