Understanding the Differences in Use by Bats in Caves and Mines in Nevada Presenter: Jason Williams Join us for a webinar on May 28, 2015 at 8:00 PM CDT. (Which is 9PM EDT / 7PM MDT / 6PM PDT. Please check your time zone for the correct start time.) Register now! https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/6855997424679289857 Jason will discuss his research on cavernicolous roosting bats in Nevada. His studies focus on better understanding the macro- and micro-climates bats are selecting for different types of roost use, including: maternity, hibernation, and migration use. Jason will explain his work with thermal imaging cameras and climate data loggers in mines and caves in characterizing roost use. Jason will also discuss research he and colleagues are conducting to better understand how bats are responding to different bat gate designs used to secure mine and cave portals. Jason lives in Ely, Nevada, and has been a wildlife biologist for 21 years, with the last 14 years working for the Nevada Department of Wildlife. Jason spends most of his professional time studying impacts to bats from abandoned mine reclamation programs, wind generation, and lately characterizing microclimates in cavernicolous roosting environments, partly fueled by threats of White Nose Syndrome advancing westward. While he has studied caves more frequently in the past 5 years, most of Jason’s underground experience comes from working in an estimated 3,000 abandoned mines throughout the West. Please arrive at least 10 minutes early to guarantee your place at this webinar. All webinars are recorded and stored on the NSS website www.caves.org. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar. View System Requirements<http://support.citrixonline.com/s/G2W/Help/SystemRequirements>
