CU Boulder climate researchers compare blooms and pollinators over 100 years above Colorado Springs.
The buds and bees on Pikes Peak indicate climate change is worsening. But it’s not all “doom and gloom.”
Climate change is sending early wakeup calls to buds and bees on the slopes of Pikes Peak, CU Boulder research says.

I'm running a seminar in the fall for senior undergrads in Evolutionary Ecology. I'm hoping to curate a reading list mixing classic and new papers that illustrate how combining ecological and evolutionary perspectives can lead to new insights. Do you have a favorite I should consider?
