SNRE Student Emma Williams receives Grand Canyon Historical Society Scholarship

The Grand Canyon Historical Society is a non-profit organization dedicated to historic and environmental preservation in the Grand Canyon region. Each year they award a competitive $1,500 scholarship to support research involving cultural or natural history, or environmental preservation in the Grand Canyon region. The awarded researcher will provide the GRHS with a research product to be housed in the Grand Canyon Historical Society Collection in the Special Collections and Archives of Northern Arizona University's Cline Library.  This year they will be supporting work examining the long term ecological factors influencing fire related mortality of drought stressed trees.
