Wicked Water Problems for South-Central Texas

Creator:: Doty, Brent R.
Abstract:: Like many areas around the globe experiencing ever-growing demand for diminishing natural resources, the south-central region of Texas is facing a wicked problem in water resource planning and sustainability. This Region includes San Antonio, the seventh largest city in the U.S. With a projected population increase over one million residents...

Utilizing economic indicators in a machine learning platform to create an interdisciplinary forecasting framework for natural resource management and policy planning

Creator:: Polinsky, Joseph Mark
Abstract:: Abstract: Resource managers and policy face challenges in forecasting the demand for natural resources replenishment (where possible) of natural resources due to changes in human lifestyle, population change and economic development. The year 2020 demonstrated this challenge on several fronts, including the realm of natural resources. Additionally, much competition for...

The Effects of Structure and Volcanic Stratigraphy on Groundwater and Surface Water Flow: the Hat Creek basin Case Study, California, USA

Creator:: Marcelli, Marina F.
Abstract:: Hydrogeologic systems in the southern Cascade Range develop in volcanic rocks where volcanic morphology, stratigraphy, extensional structures and attendant basin geometry play a central role in groundwater-flow paths, groundwater/surface-water interactions, and spring discharge locations. High-volume springs (> 3 m3/s) flow from young (< 1 Ma) volcanic rocks in the Hat...

The Development of a Hybrid Particle-in-Cell Simulation Code in C++ for the Modeling of the SPT-70 Hall Thruster

Creator:: Myers, Conner J.
Abstract:: In order to support the growing satellite propulsion industry, a hybrid Particle-In-Cell (PIC) simulation with fluid treatment of electrons and neutral particles was developed to model the SPT-70 Hall thruster. The 2D, C++ code assumes azimuthal symmetry and a uniform magnetic field in the radial direction with the simulation domain...

The Cosmetic Stay-Green Trait in Snap Bean and the Event Cascade that Reduces Seed Germination and Emergence

Creator:: Cirak, Melike
Abstract:: The persistent color (pc) trait in snap bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) belongs to a member of the cosmetic stay-green gene family. It is considered very desirable by snap bean breeders for its impacts on pod quality. Persistent color imparts a uniform dark-green color to pods and expresses in seeds as...

Temperature Evolution of Nonreacting Spark Kernels at Sub-Atmospheric Pressures

Creator:: Caplan, Daniel L.
Abstract:: In the event of a mid-flight flameout of a gas turbine engine, reignition is paramount to occupant safety. Ignition at high altitude can be challenging, due in part to the potentially lower ambient pressures. An understanding of the effects of sub-atmospheric pressures on the temperature evolution of spark kernels is...

Student Thoughts on Derivatives of Vector Fields

Creator:: Walker, Mesa E.
Abstract:: Junior level physics students are familiar with a few types of vector ﬁeld derivatives, such as divergence and curl, but are typically unfamiliar with how to take a general derivative of a vector ﬁeld. Three junior-level physics students were interviewed with the open-ended prompt, “How would you think about taking...

Small Scale Modeling of a Broad Area Detector Network Array

Creator:: Johnson, Patrick M.
Abstract:: Nuclear material monitoring systems have long been established at ports of entry. However, there are no standard systems for monitoring points of interest within the country. Therefore, the use of a network of radiation sensors deployed throughout an area of interest is being investigated within this thesis. Before full scale...

Simulation of Heat Transfer Through Soil for the Investigation of Wildfire Impacts on Buried Utilities

Creator:: Richter, Edward G.
Abstract:: Wildland urban interface (WUI) communities in the Western United States have recently dealt with historic and devastating wildfires year after year. The fires have cost tens of billions in damage, burned tens of thousands of structures, displaced thousands of residents, and killed over one hundred people. The 2017 Tubbs fire...

Pillaging Bloodwood: An Exploratory Examination of Illegal Deforestation in Guinea-Bissau Through Forest Disturbance Algorithms and Unsupervised Clustering Techniques

Creator:: Walters, Alexander E.
Abstract:: Environmental crime around the world, such as trafficking in illegal timber, is directly related to political instability. Traffickers exploit weak, fragile, and chaotic political circumstances to illegally extract high-value commodities, challenging the extent to which conservation goals are achievable in resource rich developing countries. Rosewood is the largest traded endangered...
