Walker, Thompson, and Landau (all in the Department of Biological Sciences, UNLV) are working on a long term project assessing plant ecology and rodent ecology along a well developed elevation gradient in the Spring Mountains of southern Nevada (Lucky Strike Canyon). Current emphases include seedling survival and distribution of rodent mounds associated with perennial shrubs. Stark's contribution is in the assessment of the biological soil crust at different elevations and under different shrub species.

Recent collaborative publications:

2005. Thompson, D.B., L. R. Walker, F. H. Landau, and L. R. Stark. The influence of elevation, shrub species, and biological soil crust on fertile islands in the Mojave Desert, USA. Journal of Arid Environments 61: 609-629.
