Andrews C, Bradford J, Duniway M, Munson S, Thomas L, Swan M. 2018. Describing Past and Future Soil Moisture in the Mesa-Top Pinyon-Juniper Woodland Community in Bandelier National Monument. Southern Colorado Plateau Network. Flagstaff, AZ

For this project, USGS and NPS scientists used the range of variation in historical climate data to provide context for assessing the relative impact of projected future climate on water availability. They used the SoilWat2 soil water model to translate climate variability into site-specific estimates of soil water conditions that may drive plant responses.
