Greenwashing as Public Policy Problems: Reflections from Indonesia

Creator:: Pradipta, Sena
Abstract:: Greenwashing is a relatively novel, diversely interpreted, and under-researched social phenomenon. Therefore, studying greenwashing concepts, methodological yardsticks, and the dynamic behind its pervasiveness provides an excellent opportunity to improve our understanding of it, refine our detection tools, and illuminate its influencing factors and impacts on society. This study aims to:...

Mobility Push Factors: Modeling the Influences of Natural Disasters on Migration Flows and Adaptation Interventions on Coastal Housing Prices

Creator:: Rose, Stefan A.
Abstract:: Natural disasters are an increasingly costly and frequent occurrence globally and in the United States (IPCC, 2012; IPCC, 2014; Berlemann & Steinhardt, 2017). Discrete disaster events, such as coastal flooding, have been shown to be push factors in temporary and long-term migration (Black et al., 2013). Policy efforts to adapt...

Accelerating Power-to-Gas Energy Storage Through PEM Electrolyzer Development and Technoeconomic Forecasting

Creator:: Taie, Zachary
Abstract:: There is strong interest in the energy community to develop technologies that can diffuse low-cost, renewably generated electricity into difficult and slow to decarbonize sectors. One of the emerging areas of interest is renewable natural gas (RNG). RNG has low or no associated net greenhouse gas emissions and can be...

Coastal Dunes as Meta-Ecosystems: Connecting Marine Subsidies to Dune Ecosystem Functions on the U.S. Pacific Northwest Coast

Creator:: Constant, Vanessa
Abstract:: Ecological communities are connected in space and time through the transfer of energy, materials, and organisms, together known as ecological subsidies. These ecological subsidies can have substantial effects on community structure, function, and services, especially when the connections are between communities with contrasting productivity. At the ocean-land interface, low productivity...

Stage-structured interactions and their consequences across levels of biological organization

Creator:: Segui, Leah Mupas
Abstract:: A central challenge for ecology is to understand the dynamic nature of species interactions. A classic approach to community ecology assumes that individuals within a species are functionally identical and that consumer-resource dynamics can be predicted solely by using species abundances. However, one species can consist of multiple functional groups,...

Drivers of Deconstruction: An Analysis of Dam Removal in the United States

Creator:: Marshall, Laura W.
Abstract:: The goal of this thesis is to identify the factors which have most significantly contributed to historical dam removals in the United States. The trend of increased dam removals over time is specifically analyzed for evidence that increased scarcity of environmental goods and services is motivating dam removals. A theoretical...

Intrusion Sequence and Hydrothermal Fluid Evolution of Encuentro Porphyry Cu-Mo-Au deposit, Northern Chile

Creator:: Osorio C., Jaime
Abstract:: This dissertation is divided into two major chapters. The first chapter covers the geologyof the Encuentro deposit with emphasis in the intrusion sequence, vein mineral assemblages and distribution, and age of mineralization. The data used for this section includes field mapping, petrography, elemental analysis of biotite, and isotopic geochronology. The...

The Effects of Phytoplankton Prey Species and Nutrient Limitation on Microzooplankton

Creator:: McBeain, Kelsey Ann
Abstract:: Phytoplankton and microzooplankton comprise the base and the first link of the marine food web, respectively. These microbes are key drivers of marine carbon and nutrient cycles. Phytoplankton convert atmospheric CO₂ into organic carbon, and microzooplankton consume phytoplankton, packaging phytoplankton carbon into particulate forms that have a variety of fates:...

Preparation and Properties of Porous Carbon Materials

Creator:: Xing, Zhenyu
Abstract:: Porous carbon is indispensable in modern technology applications. It is used for energy storage, gas separation, water purification, catalyst support, and chromatography. The diversity of its applications stems from its unique properties, including high specific surface area, tunable pore volume, and chemical stability. Specifically, the large surface area provides high...

Quantitative Tools for Monitoring Strategy Evaluation and Assessment of Sea Turtle Populations

Creator:: Piacenza, Susan E. H.
Abstract:: Green sea turtles, Chelonia mydas, have endangered and threatened populations globally, but several populations show signs of population recovery. In Hawaii, nesting female green turtles have increased 5.7% year⁻¹ since 1973, but wide fluctuations in census counts of nesting females make recovery diagnosis difficult. For effective management planning, it is...
