In this special lecture, Marie Simovich and Mike Wells will present elements of the dramatic landscape of the Anza-Borrego desert, describing how this region evolved over time and how the organisms within it have adapted to its heat and aridity. Until their respective retirements, Dr. Simovich was a faculty member in USD’s Department of Biology, while Dr. Wells was superintendent of the Colorado Desert District. From 2001 to 2017, they co-taught a class on desert biology, and this class formed the basis of their co-authored book, A Natural History of the Anza-Borrego Region: Then and Now.
