  • A Computational Framework for Resilience-Informed Design

    Creator:
    Hulse, Daniel E.
    Abstract:
    It is desirable for complex engineered systems to perform missions efficiently and economically, even when these missions' complex, variable, long-term operational profiles make it likely for hazards to arise. It is thus important to design these systems to be resilient so that they will actively prevent and recover from hazards...

  • Elucidating Computational Narratives to Facilitate Code Comprehension

    Creator:
    Chattopadhyay, Souti
    Abstract:
    Programming is integrated across the workflow of multiple domains where end-user programmers, those who need to program as a means to an end, regularly need to code. In the modern setting of collaborative development, end-user programmers have to interpret the intentions behind existing code to contribute and build solutions to...

  • Advanced Computational Modeling Methods for Floating Offshore Wind Systems

    Creator:
    Devin, Michael C.
    Abstract:
    Floating offshore wind energy is anticipated to become a competitive source of renewable energy by the late 2020s, but the industry must reduce costs and uncertainties associated with the technology to do so. Identifying solutions to these problems frequently relies on computational modeling, which presents technical shortcomings limiting the versatility...

  • Econometric Analysis of Private Decisions on Renewable Natural Resources

    Creator:
    Zhao, Zichu
    Abstract:
    Natural resources play a crucial role in human society by providing both market value and non-market value. Effective management of these resources is necessary to achieve a balance between economic value and other non-market benefits. Econometric studies focusing on natural resource management help us understand the costs and benefits of...

  • Computational study of the structure of indium alloys at low temperatures using ab initio methods

    Creator:
    Shin, Hongsik (Jay)
    Abstract:
    Crystals are solid materials with periodic and symmetric molecular patterns. The structure of a crystalline solid determines its properties, making it essential to study its structures. From the principle of minimum energy, a crystal will choose a structure with the lowest free energy F = U – TS. At low...

  • A Microeconomic Analysis of Wildfire Suppression Programs in the Western United States

    Creator:
    Rossi, David J.
    Abstract:
    This dissertation studies the microeconomics of forest fire suppression programs. It starts with an inquiry into the causes of increasing shares of public land management budgets devoted to wildland fire suppression in lieu of hazardous fuel reduction or other pre-fire risk mitigation programs. The first two chapters consider competing economic...

  • Empirical Analyses of Forestry Interactions with Climate Uncertainty and Threatened Species

    Creator:
    Johnson, Kelsey K.
    Abstract:
    Forests are highly valuable resources providing both timber as well as many non-use values like habitat for various endangered and threatened species, carbon sequestration, and recreation, to name a few. Given that there are 765 million acres of forestland in the United States, almost 60% of which are privately owned,...

  • Three Essays on the Economics of Habitat and Landscape Restoration

    Creator:
    Nguyen, Tu
    Abstract:
    Natural landscapes around the world have experienced serious loss and degradation, which negatively impacts ecosystem service provision by these landscapes. As a result, there have been serious investments to restore natural capital. However, restoration faces complex trade-offs, such as that between restoration quality, or how closely the restored landscapes resembles...

  • Understanding the New Outdoor Recreation Paradigm in the Era of Social Media and Increasing Public Health Advisories

    Creator:
    Lowe Mackenzie, Ashley
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation, I examine emerging economic issues which intersect outdoor recreation, environmental quality, public land use, and public health advisories. First, I explore the potential impacts of social media on visitation to public land. Social media, and in particular Instagram, has been suggested by journalist and land managers as...

  • In situ Agrobiodiversity Conservation Planning in Centers of Origin: The Role of Culture

    Creator:
    Guerrero Ochoa, Isabel G.
    Abstract:
    Managing agricultural diversity ensures a range of public services, such as genetic resource diversity, food security for subsistence-based economies, and landscape resilience in the context of climate change, among others. These agrobiodiversity conservation services are positive externalities from agrobiodiversity conservation. Whereas their value is not captured in market transactions, management...
