An integrated approach to historical population assessment of the great whales: case of the New Zealand southern right whale

Creator:: Jackson, Jennifer A., Carroll, Emma L., Smith, Tim D., Zerbini, Alexandre N., Patenaude, Nathalie J., and Baker, C. Scott
Abstract:: Accurate estimation of historical abundance provides an essential baseline for judging the recovery of the great whales. This is particularly challenging for whales hunted prior to twentieth century modern whaling, as population-level catch records are often incomplete. Assessments of whale recovery using pre-modern exploitation indices are therefore rare, despite the...

Accelerating solutions of one-dimensional unsteady PDEs with GPU-based swept time-space decomposition

Creator:: Magee, Daniel J. and Niemeyer, Kyle E.
Abstract:: The expedient design of precision components in aerospace and other high-tech industries requires simulations of physical phenomena often described by partial differential equations (PDEs) without exact solutions. Modern design problems require simulations with a level of resolution difficult to achieve in reasonable amounts of time-even in effectively parallelized solvers. Though...

Wildfire spread, hazard and exposure metric raster grids for central Catalonia

Creator:: Alcasena, Fermin J., Ager, Alan A., Salis, Michele, Day, Michelle A., and Vega-Garcia, Cristina
Abstract:: We provide 40 m resolution wildfire spread, hazard and exposure metric raster grids for the 0.13 million ha fire-prone Bages County in central Catalonia (northeastern Spain) corresponding to node influence grid (NIG), crown fraction burned (CFB) and fire transmission to residential houses (TR). Fire spread and behavior data (NIG, CFB...

Evaluation of Compartmentalized Aquifers in the Walla Walla Subbasin of Oregon Using Isotopic and Geochemical Tracers

Creator:: van Stolk, Courtney A.
Abstract:: The Walla Walla Subbasin (WWSB) in Oregon is underlain by formations of the extensive Columbia River Basalt Group (CRBG) which have been deformed by post-Miocene folding and faulting. Extensive irrigation with groundwater from these basalt groups, as well as sedimentary aquifers and surface water diversions from the Walla Walla River,...

A Prototype of Structured Decision Making with Ecological Modeling for Tribal Agricultural Resource Management Plans

Creator:: Ciocco, Anthony
Abstract:: Agriculture Resource Management Plans (ARMPs) are the primary programmatic-level planning document for the management of tribal rangelands in North America. This project compares a standard ARMP product with a prototype ARMP developed through a Structured Decision Making (SDM) approach for the Navajo Partitioned Lands. The SDM approach provided increased transparency...

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...

Quantifying the Resilience-Informed Scenario Cost Sum: A Value-Driven Design Approach for Functional Hazard Assessment

Creator:: Hulse, Daniel, Hoyle, Christopher, Goebel, Kai, and Tumer, Irem Y.
Abstract:: Complex engineered systems can carry risk of high failure consequences, and as a result, resilience-the ability to avoid or quickly recover from faults-is desirable. Ideally, resilience should be designed-in as early in the design process as possible so that designers can best leverage the ability to explore the design space....

Evaluating carbon storage, timber harvest, and habitat possibilities for a Western Cascades (USA) forest landscape

Creator:: Kline, Jeffrey D., Harmon, Mark E., Spies, Thomas A., Morzillo, Anita T., Pabst, Robert J., McComb, Brenda C., Schnekenburger, Frank, Olsen, Keith A., Csuti, Blair, and Vogeler, Jody C.
Abstract:: Forest policymakers and managers have long sought ways to evaluate the capability of forest landscapes to jointly produce timber, habitat, and other ecosystem services in response to forest management. Currently, carbon is of particular interest as policies for increasing carbon storage on federal lands are being proposed. However, a challenge...

Assessing earth system model predictions of C-4 grass cover in North America: From the glacial era to the end of this century

Creator:: Still, Christopher J., Cotton, Jennifer M., and Griffith, Daniel M.
Abstract:: Aim C-4 grasses are distinct from C-3 grasses, because C-4 grasses respond in a different manner to light, temperature, CO2 and nitrogen and often have higher resource-use efficiencies. C-3 and C-4 grasses are typically represented in earth system models (ESMs) by different plant functional types (PFTs). The ability of ESMs...

Diffusion-free Grotthuss topochemistry for high-rate and long-life proton batteries

Creator:: Wu, Xianyong, Hong, Jessica J., Shin, Woochul, Ma, Lu, Liu, Tongchao, Bi, Xuanxuan, Yuan, Yifei, Qi, Yitong, Surta, T. Wesley, Huang, Wenxi, Neuefeind, Joerg, Wu, Tianpin, Greaney, P. Alex, Lu, Jun, and Ji, Xiulei
Abstract:: The design of Faradaic battery electrodes that exhibit high rate capability and long cycle life equivalent to those of the electrodes of electrical double-layer capacitors is a big challenge. Here we report a strategy to fill this performance gap using the concept of Grotthuss proton conduction, in which proton transfer...
