This post introduces a published BCEENET CURE titled "Exploring the effects of invasion on plant morphology." The objectives read: "Invasive plant morphology: Comparing plant phenotypes across native and invasive ranges," and "Students will: Investigate morphological changes within species using digital herbaria specimens, collect and analyze morphological trait data to explore evolutionary responses to novel environments." The image also includes a graphic of the purple loosestrife (Lythrum salicaria) and the BCEENET logo.

This post introduces a BCEENET CURE titled “A cure for invasions: Mobilizing digitized natural history collections to track invasive species.” The objectives include tracking invasive species and comparing their adaptability to new environments. The text reads: “Students will select a pair of invasive species with similar ecological roles, develop hypotheses about mechanisms affecting their dispersal, and analyze distribution changes over time using digitized natural history collections data.” The image also features a graphic of the Scotch broom (Cytisus scoparius) and the BCEENET logo.
