An Interdisciplinary Agent-based Evacuation Modeling Framework: Seeking Convergence of Social, Natural, and Engineered Systems to Improve Life Safety in the Cascadia Subduction Zone

Creator:: Chen, Chen
Abstract:: Social scientists have studied people's responses to disasters for many decades, and behavioral commonalities and variations are summarized in different mental schemes/models in disaster studies. Integrating those findings from social science into evacuation simulation can improve simulation accuracy and eventually better support decision-making and disaster preparedness. However, this kind of...

Spatial patterns and trends of summertime low cloudiness for the Pacific Northwest, 1996-2017

Creator:: Dye, Alex W., Rastogi, Bharat, Clemesha, Rachel E. S., Kim, John B., Samelson, Roger M., Still, Christopher J., and Williams, A. Park
Abstract:: Summertime low clouds are common in the Pacific Northwest (PNW), but spatiotemporal patterns have not been characterized. We show the first maps of low cloudiness for the western PNW and North Pacific Ocean using a 22‐year satellite‐derived record of monthly mean low cloudiness frequency for May through September and supplemented...

Toward a flexible and accurate approach to null network sampling

Creator:: Bright, Zachary A.
Abstract:: Null networks are a type of random graph that is favored for the analysis of a wide variety of real-world networks, including gene-regulatory networks, food webs, and species co-occurrence matrices. As a hypothesis-generating tool, null networks are invaluable because they can reveal network motifs and unusual large-scale properties of networks...

Machine Learning for Precision Medicine: Application to Cancer Chemotherapy Response Prediction and Wound Healing Status Assessment

Creator:: Wei, Qi
Abstract:: Ph.D. candidate Qi Wei's thesis consists of two projects: Chemotherapy Project: a study based on the research paper "Predicting chemotherapy response of various cancer types using a variational auto-encoder approach" submitted to the bioRxiv preprint archive and accepted by the BMC bioinformatics; and Wound Monitor Project: implementing and assessing analytics...

Vegetation Community Data to Inform Climate-Adaptation Management; Gardiner, New York

Creator:: Randazzo, Andrew
Abstract:: Climate change represents an increasing threat to northeastern temperate forests. Nearly all forest communities have been affected by climate change and require climate-adaptation management (Jandl et al. 2018). Climate-adaptation management (CAM) promotes the viability of forested systems and the ecosystem services they provide under current and future climatic conditions (Bolte...

An Interdisciplinary-Botanical Perspective for Cultural Resource Management: A Definition and the Application of Culturally Significant Plants in Identification, Interpretation, and Evaluation for the National Register of Historic Places

Creator:: Burk, Rene F.
Abstract:: Cultivated plants are often living artifacts that can aid in evaluation of historic or cultural landscapes. However, a working definition for “culturally significant plant” is currently lacking in the guidance literature for the cultural resource management practitioners. Based on a review of the literature on cultivated plants as indicators of...

Turnover, Memory, Persistence: Four Decades of Ecological Community at Lost Valley

Creator:: Bruno, Mark P.
Abstract:: This study is an ethnographic investigation of residential turnover, organizational memory, and the persistence of Lost Valley, an Oregon ecovillage founded in 1989. Literature on organizational turnover, memory, and persistence is reviewed and integrated with scholarship on intentional communities and ecovillages, generating a theoretical framework for data collection and analysis....

Planning for the Future Forest on the Northern Shawangunk Ridge: Climate-Adaptive Disturbance Preparedness and Response Recommendations

Creator:: Randazzo, Andrew
Abstract:: Mohonk Preserve intends to manage their forestland more actively with the mission of promoting forest health, climate-adaptation, and overall ecosystem health for the benefit of their community and recreational users. Climate-adaptive management recommendations (recommendations that address climate change vulnerabilities —by promoting either resistance, resilience, or transition— while helping to meet...

Lost in plain sight : the evolution of Oregon's nearshore groundfish trawl fleet

Creator:: Sjostrom, Anja, Conway, Flaxen D. L., Ciannelli, Lorenzo, and Wakefield, Waldo
Abstract:: The West Coast groundfish industry collapsed in 2000, but it recovered through the efforts of regulators, scientists and the fleet. Now it is working to rebuild the market and reconnect with a formerly active fishing ground along Oregon’s nearshore. In this report, we define nearshore as the shelf that extends...

A decade of tidal wetland development at the Ni-les’tun restoration project on the southern Oregon coast

Creator:: Janousek, Christopher, van de Wetering, Stan, Brophy, Laura, Cornu, Craig, and Tice-Lewis, Maxwell
Abstract:: The Ni-les’tun tidal wetland restoration project in the Coquille River Estuary in southern Oregon is one of the largest and most well-studied tidal restoration projects on the Pacific Northwest coast. However, ecological data on restoration effectiveness and ecosystem change following restoration are relatively rare for projects more than a few...
