SUMMARY:Fossils and the Future: Lessons from Oregon’s Ecological Past
DESCRIPTION:Spend an evening with Oregon Natural Desert Association as they continue the High Desert Speaker Series by uncovering the fossilized world of eastern Oregon. Dr. Samantha Hopkins\, University of Oregon Professor and Earth Sciences Department Head\, will take you on a journey through time as she reveals what Oregon’s high desert fossils tell us about the past\, present and future. You’ll explore a few fossilized mammals of eastern Oregon and discover what these creatures tell us about the desert ecosystem 30 million years ago. Samantha will also explain how fossils reveal changes in ecosystems and communities over time and what those shifts can tell us about our future in a changing climate.

SUMMARY:Beneath the Surface: Desert Mussels
DESCRIPTION:Join Oregon Natural Desert Association for the final event of the High Desert Speaker Series as they dive beneath the surface of high desert streams and into the hidden world of mussels. Alexa Martinez\, Wildlife Biologist at the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge\, will shed light on the fascinating lives of native mollusks thriving in the waterways of eastern Oregon. Alexa will share the unique habitat of each mussel species and discuss how snowmelt feeds the watersheds that sustain these creatures. Come learn how these often-overlooked species play a critical role in maintaining the health of the desert ecosystems.
