Landlab Ecohydrology: open-source tools for modeling transient ecosystems (In Prep).
Published in , 2019
In this paper, we present existing ecohydrological modeling capacity of Landlab using examples that couple components for local soil moisture and plant dynamics with spatially explicit cellular automaton (CA) plant establishment, mortality, and disturbances. Using Landlab components with varying complexity, we discuss the role topography plays on plant organization, and contributions of fire and grazing disturbances on the spatial and temporal characteristics of woody plant encroachment (WPE) and savanna dynamics.

Elevation Control on Vegetation Organization in a Semiarid Ecosystem in Central New Mexico.
Published:
In this work, I looked at the elevation control on vegetation organization in semiarid central New Mexico. I used an ecohydrology model (CATGraSS) built using Landlab’s ecohydrology components. Access the poster here.

Studying the role of disturbances on woody plant encroachment in Southwestern US using a coupled Landlab Ecohydrology Model.
Published:
Presented on development of a hybrid model that couples local soil moisture and plant dynamics and cellular automata plant establishment and mortality with explicitly modeled disturbances (such as fires and grazing). Access the poster here.
Disturbance Hydro-eco-geomorphology: How do the Watershed Systems Respond to Disturbances?
Published:
Presented the different ecohydrology models built with Landlab. We looked at few hypotheses exploring the impacts of disturbances such as wildfires and grazing on semiarid ecosystems. I really enjoyed preparing the iPoster (for the first time!). I prefer iPosters as I feel we can convey the scientific information better with GIFs and videos. Access the poster here. If you face issues opening the poster, try accessing it here.
