The goal of this project is to characterize how and where novel wildfire-watershed governance systems are created and to understand whether different governance systems vary in terms of adaptive management, effectiveness, and fairness, as well as other identified...
This project will investigate the long-term ecological outcomes of large wildfires and how management actions, such as planting, impact the ecological resilience of large fire footprints. Objectives: How are different forest types recovering naturally across a...
This research focuses on understanding the effectiveness of process-based river restoration in reducing flooding impacts following a wildfire, including changes in sediment and flow properties in rivers. Objectives: Create new conceptual models of flood attenuation at...
The overarching goal of this project was to characterize SES resilience by measuring value-explicit perceptions of resilience before and after wildfire events in the Poudre River Watershed. Objectives: Develop a set of SES indicators that are meaningful and...
Increasing urbanization and development efforts have led to observable stream impacts consistent and prevalent enough to earn the name Urban Stream Syndrome. Despite the recognizable and consistent symptoms of Urban Stream Syndrome, predicting and quantifying stream...
