Become a Friend of CSAS:
In August 2008 the CSAS conducted a “mapping grade” GPS survey of its Senator Beck Basin research infrastructure. Many thanks to UNAVCO, of Boulder, Colorado for providing the required equipment, on loan, at no cost. Some 44 points in our Senator Beck Basin plant community monitoring program were surveyed, as were our instrument arrays and our stream gauging station, seen here.
