Construction, Degradation, and Restoration of Wet Meadow Ecosystems in Semi-arid Landscapes, Northern Great Basin, USA

Creator:: Nash, Caroline S.
Abstract:: Wet meadow ecosystems are a useful natural laboratory in which to explore feedbacks between biogenic and geologic controls on valley bottom landforms. Characterized by flat valley floors flanked by higher-gradient hillslopes, these meadows are singular both in that they represent depositional features in what is primarily an erosional environment, and...

Assessing the effectiveness of riparian restoration projects using Landsat and precipitation data from the cloud-computing application ClimateEngine.org

Creator:: Hausner, Mark B., Huntington, Justin L., Nash, Caroline, Morton, Charles, McEvoy, Daniel J., Pilliod, David S., Hegewisch, Katherine C., Daudert, Britta, Abatzoglou, John T., and Grant, Gordon
Abstract:: Riparian vegetation along streams provides a suite of ecosystem services in rangelands and thus is the target of restoration when degraded by over-grazing, erosion, incision, or other disturbances. Assessments of restoration effectiveness depend on defensible monitoring data, which can be both expensive and difficult to collect. We present a method...

Creator:: Groner, Maya L., Buck, Julia C., Gervasi, Stephanie, Blaustein, Andrew R., Reinert, Laura K., Rollins-Smith, Louise A., Bier, Mark E., Hempel, John, and Relyea, Rick A.
Abstract:: For the past several decades, amphibian populations have been decreasing around the globe at an unprecedented rate. Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), the fungal pathogen that causes chytridiomycosis in amphibians, is contributing to amphibian declines. Natural and anthropogenic environmental factors are hypothesized to contribute to these declines by reducing the immunocompetence of...
