Impact Of Young Biocrust On Dryland Surface Albedo, Rhynhardt Mudde, Rebekah Magness, Raul Roman, Nicole Pietrasiak Nov 2024

Impact Of Young Biocrust On Dryland Surface Albedo, Rhynhardt Mudde, Rebekah Magness, Raul Roman, Nicole Pietrasiak

Undergraduate Research Symposium Posters

More than 40% of the Earth’s surface is covered by drylands. Due to limited availability of water, less surface area is covered by vascular plants. Instead, this space is occupied by microbial communities that exist in close contact with mineral soil, creating a living aggregate on the upper soil layer and are known collectively as biological soil crusts or “biocrusts”. Biocrusts play a vital role in ecosystem functioning in drylands specifically through their influence on hydrological processes (e.g., water retention, infiltration). However, the impact of biocrusts on evaporation is not well understood. Biocrusts have been reported to either increase or …

Well Cave Field Report: Bracken Bat Cave And Preserve, Anthony J. Coronado, Byron T. Cox, Allison De La Houssaye, Fernando Jaime Sepulveda, Anthony Sadler, Aaron S. Yamazi Dec 2022

Well Cave Field Report: Bracken Bat Cave And Preserve, Anthony J. Coronado, Byron T. Cox, Allison De La Houssaye, Fernando Jaime Sepulveda, Anthony Sadler, Aaron S. Yamazi

Geophysics

Well cave is a small cave entrance that sits northeast of Bracken Bat Cave on the Bracken Bat Cave Preserve Property. The cave entrance sits above the Balcones Fault Zone, a primarily karst environment, and is mostly comprised of Edwards Limestone (EAA, 2022). The goal of this project is to successfully detect the main cave passageway, and any other potential paths that branch from it, beneath Well Cave. In order to accurately detect any passages, GPR surveying and ER testing were chosen as the main methods to do so.
