Abstract:
The ability to accurately assess forest carbon storage is critical to understanding global carbon cycles and the effects of changes in land cover on ecological processes. However, existing methods for calculating carbon storage do not explicitly account for differences in carbon stored by different species of trees. Those methods that do reflect some of this variability, such as remotely-sensing canopy structure to estimate biomass, can be resource-intensive and difficult to reproduce over past or future time steps in order to assess change. I examined the accuracy of several carbon mapping ap

Abstract:
Riparian ecosystems are disproportionately biodiverse and vital to many taxa despite their scant footprint on the landscape. Yet globally they are also under the greatest human-caused threats. The loss of habitat is the greatest driver of species declines, but fragmentation may also significantly impact populations by creating barriers to dispersal. Effective conservation requires an informed understanding of species' threats and capabilities, though it is unclear whether the increasing fragmentation of riparian woodland in western North America is affecting dispersal patterns of riparian bree

Abstract:
Montane ecosystems of the western United States have experienced dramatic changes in their fire regimes over the last 150 years. Fire behavior modeling enables understanding of how ecosystem changes have altered past fire regimes. The Valles Caldera National Preserve in the Jemez Mountains, northern New Mexico, contains one of the largest montane grasslands in North America. This area is used for multiple uses ranging from logging to grazing and recreation. These important ecosystems have experienced increased fuel loads and stem densities resulting from a century of fire exclusion and tree en

Abstract:
Community forestry is an evolving approach to forest management, shown to maintain forest cover, while generating income for local communities. In Sierra Norte (SN), a region with no public protected areas, indigenous communities have been actively conserving their forests for decades, through conservation zoning and careful management of their logging areas. This study found that across 22 communities in SN, an estimated 2,949,116.50 m3 of timber were produced from 1993 to 2013, while the region maintains 78% forest cover. About 75% of the forest is under some form of community conservation.
