Camille Holmgren, assistant professor, Geography and Planning, had a research paper, "Vegetation history along the eastern, desert escarpment of the Sierra San Pedro Mártir, Baja California, Mexico," published in the May 2011 issue of Quaternary Research. This work provides a reconstruction of past vegetation and climate spanning about 33,000 years for northeastern Baja California, Mexico; offers new insights into the dynamics of the chaparral-desert ecotone; and supplies a historical baseline for assessing ongoing ecological change in a rapidly developing area.
