Environment, technology, and future generations

Creator:: Bella, David A. and United States. Office of Water Research and Technology
Abstract:: This report deals with environmental strategies. Such strategies involve comprehensive and broad outlooks. In contrast, environmental tactics involve more limited concerns which can be usually addressed in a disciplinary or multi-disciplinary manner. The development of strategies necessitates interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary outlooks. Such outlooks are extremely difficult to achieve because different...

Greening a Red State: Understanding the Complexities of Environmental Policy in Florida

Creator:: Dearden, Grace
Abstract:: In some legislative bodies, the use of terms like climate change and global warming is frequently seen as taboo. In the United States, voters who identify as right-leaning have reported little concern about the environment or climate change. This lack of interest is mirrored by Republican legislators who often publicly...

The Viability of Container-Based Sanitation as a Tool for Sanitation Coverage in Urban Haiti

Creator:: VanRiper, Froggi Ramona
Abstract:: Haiti is far from achieving the UN goal of sanitation access for all; 20% Haitians have no sanitation access, and less than 0.1% of urban excreta is safely managed. Container-Based Sanitation (CBS) may be a key tool for achieving equitable sanitation coverage in Haiti’s cities. CBS is a sanitation strategy...

Behavioral Responses to Competing Incentives and Disincentives: Compliance With Marine Mammal Protection

Creator:: Bisack, Kathryn D. and Clay, Patricia M.
Abstract:: Key Takeaway: Understanding this process and factors that influence compliance decisions can help support the development of effective regulations. Importance of consistent observer coverage. Compliance varied by violation choice. Importance of port-level campaigns.

Discovery of a dune-building hybrid beachgrass (Ammophila arenaria × A. breviligulata) in the U.S. Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Mostow, Rebecca S., Barreto, Felipe, Biel, Reuben, Meyer, Eli, and Hacker, Sally D.
Abstract:: The production of novel hybrid zones is an ecologically important consequence of globally increasing rates of species introductions and invasions. Interspecific hybridization can facilitate gene flow between parent species or produce novel taxa that may alter invasion dynamics or ecosystem services. The coastal sand dunes of the U.S. Pacific Northwest...

The great fires : Indian burning and catastrophic forest fire patterns of the Oregon Coast Range, 1491-1951

Creator:: Zybach, Bob
Abstract:: The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between land management practices of Indian communities prior to contact with Europeans and the nature or character of subsequent catastrophic forest fires in the Oregon Coast Range. The research focus is spatial and temporal patterns of Indian burning across the...

Puget Sound Exhaust Gas Cleaning System (EGCS) Washwater Ecological Risk Assessment

Creator:: Word, Jay, Wang, Dayang (Cindy), McGrath, Joy, and Stubblefield, William
Abstract:: Beginning in 2020, the International Maritime Organization International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships (MARPOL) required vessels to comply with new sulfur air emission standards in Sulphur Emission Control Areas (Baltic Sea, North Sea, and off the coasts of the US and Canada) by: 1) using 0.1% sulfur...

Assessing Exposures and Simplifying Complex Mixtures of SVOCs for Hazard Characterization using Alternative Model Systems

Creator:: Rivera, Brianna N.
Abstract:: Throughout their lifetime individuals are exposed to complex mixtures of chemicals. The study of chemical mixtures is an internationally recognized research priority, but seemingly complex challenge. To reduce the intricacy of studying mixtures, researchers have identified different prioritization methods based on exposure or the toxicity of chemicals. However, understanding the...

Mapping Atmospheric Moisture Climatologies across the Conterminous United States

Creator:: Daly, Christopher, Smith, Joseph I., and Olson, Keith V.
Abstract:: Spatial climate datasets of 1981–2010 long-term mean monthly average dew point and minimum and maximum vapor pressure deficit were developed for the conterminous United States at 30-arcsec (~800m) resolution. Interpolation of long-term averages (twelve monthly values per variable) was performed using PRISM (Parameter-elevation Relationships on Independent Slopes Model). Surface stations...

Quantifying uncertainty in exposure to coastal hazards associated with both climate change and adaptation strategies : a U.S. Pacific Northwest alternative coastal futures analysis

Creator:: Mills, Alexis K., Ruggiero, Peter, Bolte, John P., Serafin, Katherine A., and Lipiec, Eva
Abstract:: Coastal communities face heightened risk to coastal flooding and erosion hazards due to sea-level rise, changing storminess patterns, and evolving human development pressures. Incorporating uncertainty associated with both climate change and the range of possible adaptation measures is essential for projecting the evolving exposure to coastal flooding and erosion, as...
