E&S is leading the development of a suite of carbon credit decision-support tools to help Oregon’s small forest landowners evaluate carbon market opportunities. The project is supported by the Oregon Department of Forestry’s Natural…
E&S is exploring possibilities for forest restoration projects designed to enhance carbon sequestration and ecological function through nature-based climate solutions such as enhanced rock weathering (ERW) and biochar production. Nature-based climate solutions can provide…
E&S is collaborating with the Wild Salmon Center, NOAA, Karuk Tribe, Yurok Tribe, UC Berkeley, and Oregon State University on a project in the Lower Klamath River Basin in Northern California that seeks to…
E&S conducted water quality sampling and analysis for cyanotoxins from reservoirs associated with the Lewis River Hydroelectric Project in Cowlitz County, WA. Sampling occurred at nine publicly accessible reservoir locations along the shorelines of…
Stemming from previous research efforts for the National Park Service and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, E&S has expanded investigations into effects of expected increased air temperature on more than 1,000 understory plant species characteristic…
E&S recently developed a white paper documenting an exploratory analysis of drivers of tree growth and survival responses to climate-related variables and aspects of air pollution, among other drivers, with colleagues at EPA and…
E&S has completed a research project for the National Park Service to apply niche models from a database of more than 1,500 statistical models previously developed by E&S to evaluate expected future changes in…
In coordination with ongoing efforts to protect fish spawning habitat, E&S Environmental conducted the installation and repair of cattle exclusion fencing around portions of Spencer Creek in Klamath County, OR. E&S successfully coordinated with…
In summer 2021, E&S, in collaboration with NV5 Geospatial, collected remotely sensed thermal data of the surface of the Klamath River from J.C. Boyle Dam to the headwaters of Copco Reservoir. This work identified…
E&S has initiated a project for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to advance statistical model development related to the response of tree growth and survival to air pollution, climate change, and forest disturbance. Working…
