The Forest Elevation Snow Transect (ForEST) project is a paired site elevational snow study. It is designed to measure how snow accumulates and ablates under different forest structures across an elevation range. The ForEST project has been ongoing since the winter of 2011-2012 within the McKenzie River Basin of the...
Sand dunes provide coastal communities critical protection from flooding and erosion, as well as a habitat for a range of species- some threatened or endangered. As such, it is of importance to develop a quantitative understanding of the processes through which these systems evolve at a variety of temporal and...
