Bridging Data and Theory: Developing Physics Informed Machine Learning for Snow Hydrology

Creator:: Steele, Hannah
Abstract:: Snow is a critical component of global climate regulation and provides water resources to over one billion people worldwide. Yet current measurement methods and modeling techniques lack the ability to fully capture snow characteristics such as snow water equivalent (SWE), snow depth, and density variable landscapes. In recent years, the...

Gender Dimensions in Disaster Management : A Focus on Aquaculture and Fishing Communities in the Philippines

Creator:: Chow, Morgan
Abstract:: Many nations that invest in aquaculture and fisheries for improved nutrition and food security are located in areas prone to natural disasters, such as typhoons. While all residents are vulnerable to the effects of disasters, research suggests that women are disproportionately affected at all stages of disaster management: preparedness, response,...

Forest Fire Effects on Radiative and Turbulent Fluxes over Snow : Implications for Snow Hydrology

Creator:: Gleason, Kelly E.
Abstract:: As a result of a warming climate, subsequent declining snowpack, and a century of fire suppression, forest fires are increasing across the western United States. However, we still do not fully understand how forest fire effects snowpack energy balance, nor the volume and availability of snow melt and associated water...

Spatio-Temporal Patterns of Tree Establishment in the M1 Meadow of the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest

Creator:: Jones, Katherine E.
Abstract:: Montane meadows in the Cascade Range of Oregon have been declining due to tree establishment since records began. Montane meadow complexes in the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest shrank by 60 to 75% from 1949 to 2005, but fine scale temporal and spatial processes of tree establishment in these meadows are...

Interactive visual analysis promotes exploration of long-term ecological data

Creator:: Pham, Tuan, Jones, Julia A., Metoyer, Ronald, Swanson, Frederick, and Pabst, Robert
Abstract:: Long-term ecological data are crucial in helping ecologists understand ecosystem function and environmental change. Nevertheless, these kinds of data sets are difficult to analyze because they are usually large, multivariate, and spatiotemporal. Although existing analysis tools such as statistical methods and spreadsheet software permit rigorous tests of pre-conceived hypotheses and...

Introducing and validating a high-throughput bud break sensor

Creator:: Kleinknecht, George J.
Abstract:: Bud break is a key adaptive trait that can help us understand how plants respond to a changing climate from the molecular to landscape scale. Despite this, acquisition of bud break data is currently constrained by cost, scale, and a lack of information at the plant scale on the environmental...

An experimental investigation of the effects of temperature and dissolved oxygen on the growth of juvenile English sole and juvenile Dungeness crab

Creator:: Bancroft, Morgan P.
Abstract:: In the past two decades, occurrences of summertime upwelling-driven low dissolved oxygen (DO) events, or hypoxia, have increased along the northeast Pacific coast. If hypoxic events are severe enough to cause marine species mortality, the areas affected are often called "dead zones." In 2002 and again in 2006, the events...

Post-fire vegetation response to snow in the western United States

Creator:: Blauvelt, Katie
Abstract:: The western United States is experiencing significant changes in wildfire and snow regimes as a result of warming temperatures. An amplification of wildfire activity and reduction in snow water equivalent, snow covered area, and earlier spring snowmelt are documented trends that are projected to continue into the future. With an...

Mapping Wildlife-Relevant Snow Properties in Arctic-Boreal North America; Novel Modelling, Remote-Sensing, and Ground Observation Approaches

Creator:: Cosgrove, Christopher Liam
Abstract:: Arctic-boreal regions are exhibiting the symptoms of profound ecological shifts as they experience pronounced warming. Wildlife in high-latitudes are one such harbinger of change, and their populations are undergoing range-shifts, declines, and extinctions in response to their rapidly altering habitats. As the circumpolar and boreal north is snow-covered for up...

An Exploration of Climate Change, Conservation, and Cooperation, in Three Essays

Creator:: Johnson, Steven Mana'oakamai
Abstract:: The defining feature of our planet are the oceans, which make up 70% of the Earth’s surface. The importance of the ocean cannot be understated: 50% of oxygen originates from phytoplankton; heat is absorbed and redistributed by ocean currents; and hundreds of millions of people rely on the ocean for...
