Field ecologists go to great lengths to get data. Recently, I and a group of fellow scientists set out to see how wind moves seeds through isolated patches of habitat carved into a longleaf pine plantation. Our goal was to understand if endangered wind-dispersed flower species that grow in grassy patches in the forest would be able to sustain their population better if narrow corridors connected these isolated patches.
