Bat call and insect data collection in Red Canyon.
Bat call and insect data collection in Red Canyon.This photo demonstrates the typical set up of the so-called 'bat-and-bug' citizen science data collection platform used on the SCREE - Powell 150 expedition. The UV light attracts bugs to the pool of ethanol, where they land and are preserved for identification, while the touchpad device has an untrasonic microphone to collect bat calls.

A small tributary adding water and sediment to the Green River, Red Ca
A small tributary adding water and sediment to the Green River, Red CaThis photo displays the contrast between the clear, sediment-starved waters released from a large dam, and the murky, sediment-rich waters of natural tributaries. The tributary is just one of many that gradually re-supply the river with sediment.

Clump of scarlet desert paintbrush at Flaming gorge dam
Clump of scarlet desert paintbrush at Flaming gorge damDesert paintbrush stands out against the yellows and browns of the desert by way of its bright red and fiery coloring. Desert paintbrush is a hemiparasite, and takes some of its water and nutrients from the roots of nearby plants. However, unlike full parasites, desert paintbrush can still photosynthesize to obtain some of its nutrients if needed.

Overlooking SCREE's fourth camp
Overlooking SCREE's fourth camp, on the shore of Flaming Gorge Reservoir just above the Flaming Gorge Dam. The five SCREE boats as well as University of Wyoming's research vessel can be seen beached on a narrow band of sand and rocks just below a steep forested hillside. (May 27th, 2019.)
