Description:

Invasive beachgrasses on Oregon coastal dunes produce tradeoffs:

They build dunes that protect the coastline from climate change-

induced extreme storms and sea level rise (positive), but these

grasses also outcompete native species (negative). Researchers

have discovered a hybrid beachgrass that has different traits than

its parents and has the potential to build taller dunes, which will

impact the ways that humans interact with beachgrasses and

dunes. In this lesson, students will investigate how the hybrid

differs from its parents, how that may impact ecosystem services,

and will more broadly learn about human-environment

interactions.
