Paleo Investigations of Climate and Ecosystem Archives (PICEA):

Holocene+ climate, vegetation, and fire history from a network of lakes in the southern Brooks Range, AK

Charcoal Simulation Model (CharSiM):

CharSiM is an effort to improve our understanding of sediment-charcoal records by explicitly modeling fire regimes, charcoal dispersal, secondary charcoal transport, and sampling.

RECENT PROJECTS INCLUDE:

Size and frequency of Holocene fires in a temperate rain forest, Vancouver Island

Calibration of pollen-vegetation relationships in arctic Alaska

Species distribution, climate change, and disturbance on the Mt. Constitution Plateau, Orcas Island, Washington

Identifying disturbance signatures in small hollow sediments: the potential for obtaining long-term, high-resolution forest histories

Post-glacial history of sub-alpine forests, Olympic Peninsula, Washington

Late-Holocene vegetation changes in a subalpine meadow in the Olympic Mountain, Washington

Holocene climate-landform-vegetation interactions near Toolik Lake, Alaska

Late Holocene vegetational changes in arctic Alaska

Late Quaternary environmental history of the Alaskan North Slope
