Terrain-Aware Probabilistic Search Planning for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

Creator:: Schomer, Nathan L.
Abstract:: Mountain search and rescue is a vital form of emergency response to assist people in austere environments (e.g., extreme terrain, poor weather). Volunteer mountain search and rescue teams in the United States have begun adopting consumer- grade unmanned aerial vehicles to assist a variety of tasks (e.g., search, resource delivery);...

Advancing Spatial Data Engineering and Analysis: Integrative Approaches with GIS, Statistical Modelling, and Deep Learning

Creator:: Krivova, Maria
Abstract:: Geospatial data analysis is a multifaceted discipline encompassing the collection, processing, and visualization of diverse datasets. It models and delineates the interactions of people, objects, and phenomena within geographical spaces and predicts patterns based on the relationships between different locations. Despite significant advancements in geospatial data engineering and analytics over...

Western U.S. Water Utilities and Adaptive Capacity: A Case Study

Creator:: Schermer, Maren
Abstract:: Water in the U.S. West faces considerable challenges and uncertainties. Climate change has intensified weather extremes, threatening the water sources that support the region’s many stakeholders. Urban water providers are among the stakeholders contending with the challenge of providing reliable water supplies to their growing populations. Recognizing the critical role...

Host-Induced Gene Silencing in Black Cottonwood for Control of Septoria Canker: Efficacy and Non-Target Impacts

Creator:: Gordon, Michael I.
Abstract:: Septoria canker remains the most important disease of poplars in intensively managed forest plantations. Genetic resistance has long been considered the best way to manage for this disease. Transgenic resistance mediated by RNA silencing against pathogens and pests (HIGS: host-induced gene silencing) has shown promise in other pathosystems but has...

Modifications to Rearing Environments as a Method for Reducing Domestication Selection in Hatchery-reared Steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

Creator:: Obley, Miriam
Abstract:: Since the decline of salmonid populations in the Pacific Northwest, supplementation programs have become frequently implemented by hatcheries as a way to protect and conserve wild stock. However, hatchery-reared fish have lower fitness than wild fish which is likely due to adaptation to the hatchery environment, i.e., domestication selection. Fish...

Multicellular monolayer’s self-organization under external stimuli

Creator:: Li, Guanyu
Abstract:: Cell signaling under external stimulation is a critical mechanism that governs many biological processes such as cell proliferation, cell migration, and cell apoptosis, etc. For multicellular organisms, the ability to synchronize heterogeneous individual cellular responses through intercellular communication is crucial to maintain normal functionality. However, even though the biological pathways...

Survey Recruitment Bias and Estimates of College Student Food Insecurity

Creator:: Venable, Victoria, Edwards, Mark, and Jackson, Jennifer A
Abstract:: Having valid measures of college student FI is essential for justifying basic-needs services for students. But college student food insecurity (FI) rates vary significantly across institutions, perhaps partially due to differences in non-response bias resulting from participant recruitment strategies. We tested for effects of recruitment method on measured levels of...

An interdisciplinary framework for evaluating 19th century landscape paintings for ecological research

Creator:: Warren, Dana R., Loeb, Harper M., Betjemann, Peter, Munck, Isabel A., Keeton, William S., Shaw, David C., and Harvey, Eleanor J.
Abstract:: As we contemplate the future of forest landscapes under changing climate conditions and land-use demands, there is increasing value in studying historic forest conditions and how these landscapes have changed following past disturbances. Historic landscape paintings are a potential source of data on preindustrial forests with highly detailed, full-color depictions...

Characterizing Server Compromise: Resilience Models, Instantiations, and Impossibilities

Creator:: McQuoid, Ian M.
Abstract:: One of the pervasive problems arising in our modern, digital world surrounds data breaches where an adversary, through zero-day exploitations, phishing, or old-fashioned social engineering attacks, gains access to a service’s data stores. Our society increasingly relies on these cloud-based services for everything from our taxes to personal communication. As...

Engaging Agricultural Landowners in Fish Habitat Restoration on Private Land in the Upper Klamath Basin, Oregon: Lessons from a “Tough” Case

Creator:: Duffy, Laura
Abstract:: The conservation community has long recognized the critical role that agricultural landowners play in efforts to improve fish and wildlife habitat in order to recover threatened and endangered species. In many rural areas dominated by agricultural working landscapes, government agencies like the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) struggle to...
