Looking for a postdoc with a specialization in forest carbon dynamics, climate policy, and nature-based solutions.
The fellow will work at the intersection of forest ecology and environmental policy, investigating the effectiveness of forest carbon offset programs

Today we visited our research site in a CALFIRE demonstration forest, where the forest has been actively managed for uneven aged structure. See below, site of a successful prescribed burn done in June!

Oh man, this is just heartbreaking to read

Looks neat!! Will have to check this one out

Congrats Katherine!

definitely counts! That’s great to hear. Thanks for sharing

There are 6 Forest Service research stations that also manage research labs, 80 experimental forests, a forest product laboratory, & the International Institute of Tropical Forestry. This is the most extensive natural resource research operation in the world--a hidden crown jewel of our country. 2/

I love this 😂. secret superpower: I’m old

😂 elucidate needs to go

Congrats Doug’s fish nibblers!! Well deserved!

4/4 Fir engraver and western pine beetle are less well-studied than other bark beetles such as mountain pine beetle or spruce beetle, but have caused substantial tree mortality in drought-affected forests in the last decade. Our results call for more attention on fir engraver and western pine beetle

3/4 A key result was the finding that large areas of forest in the western US are potentially at risk of tree mortality by fir engraver and, to a lesser extent, western pine beetle.

2/4 Unsurprisingly, host basal area had a positive effect on probability of mortality for all eight bark beetle species we studied.
