Potential decline in carbon carrying capacity under projected climate-wildfire interactions in the Sierra Nevada

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Ecosystem carbon carrying capacity (CCC) is determined by prevailing climate and natural disturbance regimes, conditions that are projected to change significantly. The interaction of changing climate and its effects on disturbance regimes is expected to

GPS Imaging of vertical land motion in California and Nevada: Implications for Sierra Nevada uplift

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research - Solid Earth, 2016
We introduce Global Positioning System (GPS) Imaging, a new technique for robust estimation of the vertical velocity field of the Earth's surface, and apply it to the Sierra Nevada Mountain range in the western United States.
