RESERVE CLOSURE IN EFFECT
During the unprecedented public health crisis posed by the spread of COVID-19, the UC Natural Reserve System has curtailed public visitation and all but essential and Covid19 related research on UC Natural Reserves. To protect the health and safety of the visitors and staff, Sedgwick Reserve remains closed except for essential maintenance. For the latest updates on the CoVid19 response by the University of California Santa Barbara and on the seven Natural Reserves it manages, please visit the UCSB NRS website.

About the speaker: Dr. Caroline Williams is an Associate Professor in the Department of Integrative Biology at University of California, Berkeley. While the focus of this talk is on the crickets of Sedgwick, the focus of her broader research program is on the biological impacts of winter climate change. Caroline's research combines field-based natural history and experiments with laboratory-based biochemistry and physiology. She uses the UC Natural Reserves, including Sedgwick Reserve, extensively for collecting scientific data in the field and training the next generation of students in field sampling techniques.
