Field Work

We have started the field component of our Study Abroad Program. We have been learning how to identify trees, take structural measurements of trees and shrubs in three dimensions, estimate ground cover percentages, and take canopy cover readings. These measurements are used for the ongoing scientific analysis of savanna functioning.
