This site is one of six research plots embedded within Eugene\u2019s public parks, a collaboration between UO researchers in the Diez Ecology Lab, Eugene Public Parks, and community naturalists. The project studies how climate impacts native prairie species and aims to enhance biodiversity and inform future restoration efforts. Emily Steele from Eugene Parks will join to share insights into restoration work at Wild Iris Ridge, while researchers will discuss how planting and tracking plant growth, flowering times, and interactions help investigate environmental impacts on native species.<\/p>\n<p>Meet at Bailey View Drive trailhead for a short walk to the plot.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/maps.app.goo.gl\/uAEywaLeLBybSa5t8\">https:\/\/maps.app.goo.gl\/uAEywaLeLBybSa5t8<\/a><\/p>\n<p>For more information check out:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.inaturalist.org\/projects\/eugene-springfield-prairie-plant-phenology\">iNaturalist Project<\/a>\u00a0to view the sites, species, and current blooms.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/storymaps.arcgis.com\/stories\/25ef33c7345742ac808a07d64aaa0052\">Project website<\/a>\u00a0for more details about the project, all the sites, and a map.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.uoregon.edu\/diez\/\">Diez Ecology Lab at UO<\/a>\u00a0to learn about our lab group and our research projects.<\/p>\n<p>Sign up\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.signupgenius.com\/go\/10C0448ADA92BAAFC1-55239962-saturday\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Saturday, April 26, 2025, 9:30 am \u2013 11:30 am Event: Prairie Plant Research and Restoration at Wild Iris Ridge Leaders: Katelin Kutella and Sarah Erskine, University of Oregon (UO) Ecologists&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":26,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","_kad_blocks_custom_css":"","_kad_blocks_head_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_body_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_footer_custom_js":"","_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"_kad_post_classname":"","_tribe_events_status":"","_tribe_events_status_reason":"","_tribe_events_is_hybrid":"","_tribe_events_is_virtual":"","_tribe_events_virtual_video_source":"","_tribe_events_virtual_embed_video":"","_tribe_events_virtual_linked_button_text":"","_tribe_events_virtual_linked_button":"","_tribe_events_virtual_show_embed_at":"","_tribe_events_virtual_show_embed_to":[],"_tribe_events_virtual_show_on_event":"","_tribe_events_virtual_show_on_views":"","_tribe_events_virtual_url":"","footnotes":""},"tags":[],"tribe_events_cat":[96],"class_list":["post-4408","tribe_events","type-tribe_events","status-publish","hentry","tribe_events_cat-emerald","cat_emerald"],"taxonomy_info":{"tribe_events_cat":[{"value":96,"label":"Emerald"}]},"featured_image_src_large":false,"author_info":{"display_name":"Tom Pratum","author_link":"https:\/\/www.npsoregon.org\/wp\/author\/tom_pratum\/"},"comment_info":"","publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.npsoregon.org\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/4408","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.npsoregon.org\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.npsoregon.org\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/tribe_events"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.npsoregon.org\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/26"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.npsoregon.org\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/4408\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4409,"href":"https:\/\/www.npsoregon.org\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/4408\/revisions\/4409"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.npsoregon.org\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4408"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.npsoregon.org\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4408"},{"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.npsoregon.org\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events_cat?post=4408"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
