Large Ensembles of Regional Climate Simulations over the western United States

Creator:: Li, Sihan
Abstract:: Large ensembles of regional climate simulations were generated from the weather@home distributed volunteer computing project over the western US domain. Weather@home uses the U.K. Met Office Hadley Centre’s regional climate model HadRM3P (~0.22°) nested within the atmospheric global model HadAM3P (1.875 longitude° by 1.25 latitude°). Simulations from HadRM3P were evaluated...

Post-Aggregate Aggregation : A Geographic Evaluation of Enhancement Reclamation at Aggregate Mines in the Western United States

Creator:: Morrison, Elizabeth A.
Abstract:: The aggregate industry is responsible for the extraction and production of crushed stone, sand, and gravel— the literal building blocks of our society. Across the U.S. there are tens of thousands of quarries and sand and gravel pits, the majority of which are left abandoned or with minimal reclamation efforts....

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...

Abrupt deglacial climate changes in the North Pacific and implications for climate tipping points

Creator:: Praetorius, Summer Kate
Abstract:: Paleoclimate archives have revealed abrupt climate events that are superimposed on more gradual climate changes throughout the last glacial and deglacial periods. The underlying causes of such rapid climate changes are still poorly understood, but the strong expression of these events in northern hemisphere records likely points to climatic mechanisms...

Impact of tide-topography interactions on basal melting of Larsen C Ice Shelf, Antarctica

Creator:: Mueller, R. D., Padman, L., Dinniman, M. S., Erofeeva, S. Y., Fricker, H. A., and King, M. A.
Abstract:: Basal melting of ice shelves around Antarctica contributes to formation of Antarctic Bottom Water and can affect global sea level by altering the offshore flow of grounded ice streams and glaciers. Tides influence ice shelf basal melt rate (w(b)) by contributing to ocean mixing and mean circulation as well as...

Hydrogen isotopic composition of C₃₇ alkenones and the ecology and physiology of coccolithophores

Creator:: Wolhowe, Matthew D.
Abstract:: A three-part study was conducted into the impact of physiological and ecological variables on the net isotopic fractionation of hydrogen, α[subscript K₃₇], expressed in C₃₇ alkenones. First, alkenone-producer production, abundance, and export were characterized in the summertime Gulf of California and Eastern Tropical North Pacific using compound-specific, labeled in situ...

Resurgent Uplift of Samosir Island in Toba Caldera, Indonesia : Insights from Lake Sediment Paleomagnetism and C-14 Age Determination

Creator:: Solada, Katharine
Abstract:: Around 74 ka, a supervolcano, Toba Caldera in Sumatra, Indonesia erupted, producing the Youngest Toba Tuff and its associated caldera. After this catastrophic eruption, a lake filled the caldera, sedimentation within the lake occurred, and the process known as resurgence began. Today, the resurgent dome, Samosir Island, is uplifted 700...

Exploring Volcano-Tectonic Connections in Cascadia – Temporal Linkages between Tephra Deposition and Megathrust Earthquakes

Creator:: Gutierrez, Joel C.
Abstract:: Explosively erupting volcanoes and megathrust earthquakes (Mw 8+ magnitude) occur at subduction zones and adjacent volcanic arcs. Volcanic eruptions are observed occurring close in time to megathrust earthquakes in the historical record from at least the 18th century CE to present in locations globally, including Japan in 1707 CE (Chesley...

Intra-seasonal sea level variability along the west coast of India

Creator:: Dhage, Laxmikant
Abstract:: The importance of local versus distant forcing is studied for the wind driven intra- seasonal (30-120 day) sea level anomaly (SLA) variations along the west coast of India. Three locations on the continental slope are chosen to represent the west coast. Two more locations, one east of Sri-Lanka and another...

Exploring perceptions and experiences of the U.S. West Coast shellfish industry dealing with ocean acidification

Creator:: Mabardy, Rebecca Anne
Abstract:: Nearshore and estuarine environments along the U.S West Coast are ocean acidification (OA) "hotspots". Carbon dioxide-enriched water has been correlated with production losses of Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) larvae at hatcheries in the Pacific Northwest. Limited and unreliable supply of larval seed has implications for the economic well-being of commercial...
