16. Abstract 150 words
Russian Olive (genus and spp) is invasive to Navajo Nation. I loexamined RO proliferation across NN using NAIP data from NRCS or USDa to determine how distribution has changed with time. NAIP data was exported in to ARC 10 and supervised classiffications were conducted on the time series. My findings sugges that RO is increasing with time. 2 billina HA were identified in 1997 while in 2010 I identified 3 billina ha. Future work should consider the implication of RO distribution under IPCC climate scenarios
Introduction and background 1-2 paragraphs
Materials and Methods – as long as it needs to be (within reason)
Results – use your graphics!!!! Display your data – tables, figures, charts etc.. Put this in the middle of the poster as that is where everyone's eyes will be drawn to.
Discussion 1-2 paragraphs where you describe what your data means .
Conclusion and Recommendations 1 paragraph or bulleted points describing what it all means in a greater scope. And what do you recommend needs to be done next
