Design and Development of an RF-SoC-Based Ultra-Wideband Radar for Remote Sensing of Snow
… snow depth and SWE maps over a 1 km² area in Grand Mesa, CO, demonstrating the feasibility of UWB radar-equipped swarm sUAS for large-scale snow remote sensing. Additional contributions of this dissertation include the development of a high-performance linear chirp synthesizer and a data …

New incision rates on the Colorado River system based on cosmogenic burial dating of terraces : implications for a transient knickpoint at Lees Ferry and differential uplift of the Rocky Mountains
… initiated by integration of the system through Grand Canyon at about 6 Ma. A burial date of 1.5 +/-0.13 Ma, on a 190-m-high strath terrace 169 km above the knickpoint indicates a rate of 126 m/Ma and is three times older than a cosmogenic surface age of the same terrace. Thus high terraces dated …

The effects of fault-induced stress anisotropy on fracturing, folding and sill emplacement: Insights from the Bowie coal mines, southern Piceance basin, western Colorado.
<p>The recognition of fault-perturbed stress fields is an important tool in areas of mineral or hydrocarbon exploration. The Bowie underground coal mines of western Colorado expose a reverse-reactivated growth fault that perturbed the stress field during cleat (fracture) formation, rotating cleat …
