SUMMARY:WMRC Lecture Series: The Cambrian Explosion in the Inyo-White Mountains
DESCRIPTION:Bill Krebs\, UCLA & WMRC alumna will be presenting on the Cambrian fossil history of the White Mountains. \nThe Cambrian Explosion was a seminal event in the history of life on Earth. \nIt occurred ~ 541 mya at the beginning of the Cambrian Period and is characterized by the first appearance of abundant mineralized invertebrates\, burrows\, a negative δC13 excursion\, the extinction of most Precambrian metazoans\, and disappearance of widespread microbial mats and stromatolites.  Phyla of all modern marine invertebrates appeared during the Cambrian Explosion as well as the ecological relationships that now exist between them.   Evidence for this event in the White Mtns. consists of stromatolites\, sedimentary textures indicative of microbial mats\, fossils of mineralized marine invertebrates\, and trace fossils (e.g.\, burrows).  In Bishop\, it’s a short drive to the distant past and strange old world.  \nPLEASE SEE THE INFORMATION BELOW FOR THE LOCATION. This event is free and open to the public. This talk will not be broadcasted live but will be recorded and posted to our YouTube channel at a later date.

SUMMARY:Fieldtrip (FULL): Cambrian Fossils in the White Mountains
DESCRIPTION:PLEASE READ THE FULL DETAILS: \nREGISTRATION IS FULL. To be waitlisted please email wmrcinfo@ucla.edu. There is no guarantee for openings. A suggested donation of $20 per person is strongly recommended. Our email admin will discuss donation options. There is a fifteen-person participant cap for this trip. \nBill Krebs will be leading a 4×4 and hiking field trip to the White Mountains to see Cambrian Explosion fossil deposits. 4X4 vehicles are required. To reduce vehicle impacts please carpool or request a ride with WMRC. A caravan will meet at Owens Valley Station at 9 a.m. and return around 4:00 p.m. The group is expected to hike 4-5 miles of moderate terrain. Please wear hiking boots and appropriate apparel.

SUMMARY:WMRC Lecture Series: The Evolution of North American Wild Sheep based on Skull Shape & Mitochondrial DNA.
DESCRIPTION:Presented by John D. Wehausen\, Ph.D.\, retired WMRC research scientist. The Owens Valley is unique in having different subspecies of bighorn sheep on each side. This talk will put our local bighorn sheep into a much larger context of the evolution of all wild sheep in North America\, including when different forms appeared. It will trace the history of research on that evolution based on analyses of skull morphometric and mitochondrial DNA data and apparent conflicts between those different data sets. \nPLEASE SEE THE INFORMATION BELOW FOR THE LOCATION. This event is free and open to the public. This talk will not be broadcasted live but will be recorded and posted to our YouTube channel at a later date.
