博物馆支持成立这个非营利组织, 南亚利桑那水牛草协调中心, 与布朗基金会和美国地质勘探局合作.

Brusca established the University of Arizona Press-ASDM Press joint science book series, 自然历史中的ASDM研究，共出版6卷.

自然历史主任, 马克Dimmit, and botany staff compiled and disseminated >25 years of plant phenology data for the Sonoran Desert Region. This resource was one of the largest and longest-running datasets ever made available to the National 物候学 Network housed at University of Arizona), 哪个追踪物候变化以响应气候变化.

2010年至今

Brusca and partners at the University of Arizona documented every coastal wetland and estuary in the Gulf of California, 包括尺寸数据, 生物多样性及其保护现状.
