Term position to work with the Jornada Experimental Range and New Mexico State University to develop and apply novel approaches for analysis of large vegetation monitoring datasets using spatial databases of soil properties, climate, and other ecosystem characteristics and using techniques such as spatial autoregressive models, data mining approaches, machine learning, and time series analysis. Goal is to explain differences in ecosystem change trajectories as function of spatiotemporal variation in key drivers to inform land management, especially in rangelands.
