News & Press Coverage of Work & Field Campaigns by the Jimenez Group
The purpose of this page is to provide in one place links and PDFs for news & press coverage of our work (including field studies and other projects in which we have participated). We don't attempt to be comprehensive but just to provide some representative samples. This information can be useful for non-technical people who want to learn about what we do, and for prospective undergraduate and graduate students. Also see the pictures and other information in our Field Studies page Link
If you find a new article, video, etc. that could be posted here, please mail to jose.jimenez@colorado.edu and michael.lechner@colorado.edu .
