Plants

Understand spatial and temporal linkages between soils, hydrologic regimes, community dynamics and ecosystem processes

tree ring research

Study with researchers working in:

  • Landscape genetics and ecology
  • Remote sensing of vegetation and land-cover change
  • Spatially-explicit modeling of forest and rangeland dynamics
  • Dendrochronology (the scientific method of dating tree rings)
  • Disease, mortality and regeneration of forest, riparians and rangeland
  • Restoration ecology
  • Invasive species
