Welcome to the LUCERO LAB

ABOUT

We are an enthusiastic and collaborative group of plant community ecologists working to connect ecological patterns to their underlying processes, and then translate that knowledge to rangeland biodiversity and natural resource conservation.  We are especially interested in invasive species ecology and management, restoration of native plant communities, and biotic interactions along environmental gradients.  We work anywhere plants grow but have a special affinity for drylands.  Our ultimate aim is conserve rangeland biodiversity and natural resources for a sustainable future.
