Most areas (88%) did not have anomalous ecosystem performance for at least 6 of 8 years between 1996 and 2004. Areas with underperforming EPA (10%) often indicate areas associated with recent fires and areas of possible insect infestation or drying soil related to permafrost degradation. Over...
These responses contrast with drivers or responses in other fire-dominated climate regimes, such as convective precipitation in areas with warm continental climates (Saxe et al., 2018, Wilson et al., 2018) or the impacts of fire on subsurface flow in areas with boreal climates and permafrost (...
Sokolov's instrument of choice is the atomic force microscope (AFM), which uses its minuscule finger-like probe to measure tiny forces at a very small scale, "pretty much between individual atoms," he says. He first came across this technology as a graduate student studying the origins of t...
