Researchers have come to this historic, geologically-rich, riparian place to study the flora and fauna.

Morelia Ruby Gamino has been enthralled by sharks ever since watching the horror sci-fi “Deep Blue Sea”. When she learned that many species of sharks are endangered, she wanted to protect them. Her conservation journey took her to the Mojave Desert as part of the Women In Science Discovering Our Mojave internship.

Our dark night skies are fading, but this team of researchers is helping to understand how we can protect them.
