The Meadow Remote Sensing Postdoctoral Researcher will work on a 2-year project to model and map carbon (C) stocks and fluxes in Sierra Nevada meadows. Meadows are highly productive ecosystems that contain high densities of soil C and have high rates of soil C sequestration but have traditionally been excluded from C models and regional projections. This project will develop spatially-explicit models of above- and belowground C stocks and fluxes for Sierra Nevada meadows across the region over the last 35 years. The resulting dataset will be used to answer questions about the impact of anthropogenic disturbance/restoration and climate change on ecosystem C gains or losses in meadows across the region.
