Rissa Flanders - GIS work locating and categorizing populations of endangered and threatened epiphytic orchids in Florida. Using multiple herbariums records, a map can be built showing the history and phenology of orchids in Florida, which can be evaluated in comparison to more current epiphytic orchid populations. This allows us to study population dynamics in relation to orchid phenology and can help with orchid conservation in the future.
