structure from motion
Integrates multiple spatial data layers including lidar, airborne geophysics, hyperspectral remote sensing, and satellite data to characterize hillslope properties. Computes average values and percent...
stable isotope analysis (Plantae)
Collection and isotopic analysis of xylem and soil water to determine plant water sources using δ18O and δ2H signatures combined with Bayesian mixing model to quantify proportional contributions from ...
Endmember splitting and mixing analysis
Uses stable isotope ratios (δ²H and δ¹⁸O) of precipitation and streamflow to quantify the relative contributions of snow versus rain to streamflow and evapotranspiration through endmember mixing and s...
Random Forest
Random Forest regression to predict ecosystem drought sensitivity from hydrological and topographic variables. Uses bootstrapped subsampling with multiple regression trees to identify key predictive v...
DI water extractable organic carbon and nutrient extraction
Deionized water extraction of sediments following Gregorich and Carter (2007) to measure dissolved nutrients and organic carbon. Designed to minimize physical disruption and reflect carbon and nutrien...
Strontium isotope source tracing in plant tissues
Sequential extraction and ICP-MS analysis of soil pools and plant tissues to trace nutrient sources using 87Sr/86Sr ratios. Includes mixing model calculations to quantify proportional contributions fr...
