Modeling the Influence of Wildfire Management Networks in Social-Ecological Systems

Creator:

Avila, Colton C.

Abstract:

Wildfire management networks allow for collaborative intervention in mitigating the ever-present risk of major wildfire events. This thesis consists of two manuscripts that explore the topology and characteristics of wildfire management networks and their ability to influence wildfire severity in social-ecological systems. The first manuscript focuses on the characteristics of...

Exploring the Impacts of Climate and Management on Coastal Community Vulnerability through Alternative Future Scenarios

Creator:

Mills, Alexis K.

Abstract:

Coastal communities throughout the U.S. Pacific Northwest face heightened risk due to sea level rise and increasing storminess resulting in coastal flooding and erosion hazards. Incorporating uncertainty with respect to both climate change and policy decisions is essential to project the evolving probability of coastal inundation and erosion, and the...

OME : A Framework for Running Spatially Explicit System Dynamics Models

Creator:

Wingo, Patrick C.

Abstract:

The Open Modeling Environment (OME) is a tool developed to address some known shortcomings in ecological System Dynamics (SD) modeling research. OME provides a common set of methods for interacting directly with spatial information, reducing the need for modelers to create their own methods for doing so. The environment is...
