Research Focus FY08:
CHATS Array, picture by Sean Burns. High resolution figure
I continued analysis of 2004 "Carbon in the Mountains" Experiment (CME04) and Canopy Horizontal Array Turbulence Study field experiment (CHATS) data as part of my involvement in the Bio-hydro-atmosphere interactions of Energy, Aerosols, Carbon, H2O, Organics & Nitrogen (BEACHON) project.
