Tague talks forest water use at UNR
Yesterday, Naomi Tague delivered an invited presentation, “Forest structure, productivity and water use: what we are learning from models”, for the Hydrology Colloquium in the interdepartmental Graduate Program in Hydrologic Sciences (GPHS) at the University of Reno.
New publication “Before the Storm”
Given changing climate regimes and intensification of human modifications of the landscape, this new publication addresses the need for a better understanding of the influence of antecedent conditions on watershed function in the context of extreme climate events that disproportionately impact highly populated regions. McMillan, S.K., Wilson, H.F., Tague, C.L., Hanes, D.M., Inamdar, S., Karwan,Continue reading “New publication “Before the Storm””
Tague Medpine presentation
Last week, Naomi Tague presented “Interacting ecophysiologic and hydroclimatic controls on post thinning forest water use and carbon sequestration”, authored with Klein Tamir, at the 6th International Medpine Conference held at The Hebrew University in Rehovot, Israel. The MedPine 6 focus – Mediterranean Forest Ecosystems: Forestry, Ecology, Conservation, and Human use – brought together scientists who studyContinue reading “Tague Medpine presentation”
Re-thinking the paired watershed approach from the bottom up
In the new comment “Water sustainability and watershed storage – a comment” published in Nature Sustainability, the authors suggest re-thinking the traditional forest water sustainability question to include how watershed storage and forest access to that storage influence the water cycle. McDonnell, J.J., Evaristo, J., Bladon, K.D., Buttle, J., Creed, I.F., Dymond, S.F., Grant, G., Iroume, A.,Continue reading “Re-thinking the paired watershed approach from the bottom up”

Tague contribution to CA Climate Change Assessment Report
Naomi Tague was a contributing author to California’s Fourth Climate Change Assessment: Central Coast Region Report, which was released this week along with a release event by the California Adaption Forum (CAF).
Wildfires are inevitable – increasing home losses, fatalities and costs are not
Naomi Tague, Max Moritz, and Sarah Anderson were just published in The Conversation about their research on the salience of wildfire and the dangers of disaster-driven responses, which argues that big shifts from thinking about fighting wildfire to living with it need to be made.
RHESSys Fire Spread model mentioned in Economist article
“Forewarned is forearmed” Naomi Tague was interviewed about using RHESSys to model fire spread in the Science and Technology section of The Economist for the article “Software can model how a wildfire will spread“.
The dangers of disaster-driven responses to climate change
New publication “The dangers of disaster-driven responses to climate change” just published in Nature Climate Change from Sarah E. Anderson, Ryan R. Bart, Maureen C. Kennedy, Andrew J. MacDonald, Max A. Moritz, Andrew J. Plantinga, Christina L. Tague and Matthew Wibbenmeyer.
