New Published Research on Post-fire Mortality in Secondary Redwood Forests
Jeff Kane (Forestry, Fire, and Rangeland Management) and graduate student Jackson Carrasco (2024) published a research paper in the journal Forest Ecology and Management entitled "Tree and stand characteristics moderate wildfire severity and promote resilience in secondary coast redwood forests".
Angelina Garcia & Adam Canter, Rangeland Resource Science
Graduate students Angelina Garcia and Adam Canter were selected for a competitive USDA-ARS NextGen Fellowship. Angelina will examine how rangeland invasive species management affects soil properties and plant traits.
Logan Holey, Rangeland Resource Science
Logan Holey was awarded a competitive undergraduate research grant from the Northern California Botanists to conduct research on how air temperature and photosynthetically active radiation vary and potential effects on rangeland plant communities across microhabitats at local solar microgrids in
Justin Luong - Forestry, Fire & Rangeland Management
Dr. Justin Luong received CSU Agricultural Research Institute funding to assess how solar micro grids affect coastal prairie plant communities and soil properties.
Angelina Garcia & Logan Holey
Angelina Garcia and Logan Holey received competitive research grants from the California Native Grassland Association (CNGA) to conduct research with Dr. Justin Luong.
Justin Luong
Led by a previous undergraduate student mentee, Dr. Justin Luong co-published a paper in American Journal of Botany.
Jeff Kane and Pascal Berrill, Fire Ecology & Fuels Management
Drs. Jeff Kane and Pascal Berrill received a $144,000 grant from the USDA Forest Service to support a study that will examine the effectiveness of variable tree thinning and prescribed burn treatments to promote fire and forest resilience in mixed-conifer forests of California.
