Mortality events in pinyon-juniper ecosystems have become increasingly common, but what does it mean for the long-term viability of P-J? In a new paper in @GEB_macro we find that as much as 50% of populations in warm-dry locations may be declining (1/4). onlinelibrary.wiley.com/shar…

Apparently Nevada is terra incognita. Love their work, but I've never understood why the @NWSSacramento maps cut off at the state line. The map already includes an area much larger than the Sacramento office forecast area, why not include northern NV?
A strong, cold winter storm is expected to bring extremely heavy mountain snow Thursday-Weekend. Multiple FEET of snow are forecast; heaviest snow above 3000 ft. Expect dangerous travel with excessive delays, whiteout conditions at times, and possible road closures. #cawx

#USDA_FIA is hiring permanent/seasonal crew leads in many locations. These jobs are ideal for someone who wants to spend most of their time in the field; western jobs involve lots of travel. Apply 8/21-9/05. This was my 1st USFS job in 2004; do recommend! usajobs.gov/job/744292900#
