Model Adaptivity and Numerical Solutions Using Sensitivity Analysis

Creator:

Kennedy, Kenneth M.

Abstract:

In this work we consider the dependence of solutions to a partial differential equations system on its data. The problem of interest is a coupled model of nonlinear flow and transport in porous media, with applications, e.g. to environmental modeling. The model of flow we consider is known as the...

AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF Kenneth M. Kennedy for
Geomagnetic field influences upward movement of young Chinook salmon emerging from nests

Putman, Nathan F., Scanlan, Michelle M., Pollock, Amanda M., O'Neil, Joseph P., Couture, Ryan B., Stoner, Joseph S., Quinn, Thomas P., Lohmann, Kenneth J., and Noakes, David L.

Abstract:

Organisms use a variety of environmental cues to orient their movements in three-dimensional space. Here, we show that the upward movement of young Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) emerging from gravel nests is influenced by the geomagnetic field. Fish in the ambient geomagnetic field travelled farther upwards through substrate than did...
