Sheriff’s research seeks to understand the mechanisms underlying the variable growth response of South Western trees to dry conditions. Although this variability likely involves multiple factors, maintenance of xylem water transport may be the key response. She...
Bijan is a quantitative environmental scientist with special expertise on geospatial analyses, remote sensing, hierarchical Bayesian statistics and physics-based modeling. The overarching questions that he is interested in are: “how does climate change influence...
Aaron is interested in a broad range of questions related to forest carbon dynamics. As a graduate student at NAU, he would like to address the factors affecting annual tree growth (i.e., woody biomass increment), CO2 uptake (from eddy covariance towers), and tree...
Xin works in the field combing high performance computation and ecosystem. Currently, her research mainly focuses on sensitivity analysis of terrestrial models based on observation data, trying to identify their influentially uncertain components and capture different...
