| Primary Research Interests |
We are currently working in four areas in cooperation with other
Jornada, USGS and university scientists: arid-land ecosystem
dynamics, restoration ecology, the development of inventory,
assessment and monitoring protocols, and the development of
strategies to increase the relevance of science to societal outcomes.
Our research on ecosystem dynamics is designed to increase our
ability to stratify land based on its resilience in response to
multiple stressors (including roads and off-highway vehicles
activity) and to identify key processes and feedbacks associated with
resilience. This work is in collaboration with the DoD, USGS, LTER and BLM.
Our restoration work in cooperation with scientists at New Mexico
State University focuses on modifying the distribution of water at
multiple spatial scales, and on developing new strategies for using
natural processes to disperse seeds to maximize the probability of
establishment.
Our inventory, assessment and monitoring research addresses
relationships between indicators and ecosystem services and
functions, cost-effective statistical designs for multi-scale
inventory and monitoring, the repeatability of different methods, the
integration of field-based and remote sensing techniques, and the
development of automated data entry systems, databases and decision
support systems. This work is in cooperation with agencies and
organizations throughout the world, including Mexico, Honduras,
Mongolia and China. We are also cooperating with the NRCS and
National Park Service to develop sampling protocols for dynamic soil
properties.
We are working in cooperation with ARIDnet on an NSF-funded Research
Cooperation Network to integrate biophysical and socioeconomic
knowledge to address linked social and environmental challenges in
the Americas, and with the Ecological Society of America and other
organizations on the development of an Ecological Knowledge System.
