Curriculum Vitae
Jeremy Littell joined FMEL in 2002 as a Ph.D. student funded by the NOAA
Climate Impacts Group at the University of Washington and the USGS
Global Change Research Program. His research uses tree rings to
reconstruct the historical relationship between Pacific Ocean drivers of
North American climatic variability (Pacific
Decadal Oscillation, El
Niņo Southern Oscillation) and forest landscape processes such as fire
and tree growth rates. Previous collaborations at the former Mountain
Research Center, (now part of the Big
Sky Institute at Montana State University) resulted in better
understanding of the role of climatic and landscape variability in fire
regimes in lower elevation forests of the northern Greater Yellowstone
region (abstract).
The fire portion of this research
was funded by the USDA NRI program.
