Central American Dendrochronology

Scan of tree rings from site in Totonicapán, Guatemala. Check out DendroElevator for more information on high resolution tree-ring imagery and analysis.

Since 2015, I have worked with collaborators on developing and analyzing tree-ring chronologies from Guatemala and Honduras. For my undergraduate honors thesis, I generated the first tree-ring chronology for Totonicapán, Guatemala. A paper on the full network of chronologies that has been developed over the last 10 years is forthcoming - stay tuned!

I am a postdoctoral fellow with the NOAA Climate & Global Change Program NOAA Climate & Global Change Program. I am based at the University of California - Los Angeles with the McKinnon Group McKinnon Group. My research focuses on climate variability and change in mountain landscapes across different spatial and temporal scales. I use a variety of data types, from models to satellite imagery, to explore climate impacts in both localized areas and large, multi-country regions.
