Trainee Laci Gerhart coring Juniper in California

This photo was taken in April 2009 when Laci Gerhart traveled to Los Angeles, CA to collect cores from modern juniper trees to compare to the ancient samples from Rancho La Brea. Coring allows us to sample a large number of trees without killing or severely harming the tree in any way
