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...

Assisted Migration in the Colorado Subalpine Forest

Creator:: Najim, Tara
Abstract:: This capstone study reports on global warming-induced changes to the Colorado subalpine zone climate and disturbance regimes. It assesses the impacts of these changes upon the dominant subalpine tree species and summarizes future species distribution modeling for these and other nearby species potentially suitable for the future subalpine zone in...

Biogeochemical Processing of Freshwater Carbon in the Anthropocene

Creator:: Buser, Jessica Z.
Abstract:: Freshwater systems cycle carbon along a spatial and temporal biogeochemical continuum, across which ecosystem processes contribute to transformations of organic matter (OM). Various ecological constraints impact rates OM transformation and production and consumption of the energetic end of respiration, methane. Microbiological processing and complete reduction of carbon substrates to methane...

Temporal and Spatial Dynamics of Avian Utilization and Community Composition in Willamette Valley Wetland Study Sites: A Comparative Analysis of Winter Seasons in 1995 and 2019

Creator:: Zimmerman, Marisa
Abstract:: Resident and migratory avifauna in the Willamette Valley, Oregon are heavily influenced by winter conditions and habitat characteristics, especially those of wetlands. As such, it is important to monitor avian communities and environmental factors at wetland sites within the Willamette Valley during winter. Using data from standardized avian point-count surveys,...

Spatial and Temporal Assessment of Vertically Migrating Myctophids as Biotransporters of Microplastics to Mesopelagic Food Webs

Creator:: Boisen, Olivia C.
Abstract:: It is well documented that microplastics and semi-synthetic particles (<5 mm) pervade the marine environment, with their ingestion by marine fauna eliciting global concern. While fishes exposed to microparticles in a laboratory setting have exhibited both sub-lethal and lethal effects, the diversity in material, morphology, and size of these contaminants...

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...

The Roles of Recruitment, Species Interactions, and Oceanographic Context in Structuring Rocky Intertidal Communities of the Pacific Northwest and Atlantic Canada

Creator:: Meunier, Zechariah D.
Abstract:: Long-term, large-scale studies of meta-ecosystems provide critical information about how global change influences communities. In my dissertation, I analyzed data from studies encompassing 18 years (2006 – 2023) and over 1,000 km of coastline to investigate drivers of rocky intertidal community structure and dynamics. Specifically, I explored the roles of...

Searching for Late Pleistocene and Early Holocene-age Deposits in the Paleo-Tahkenitch Stream Basin: A Geoarchaeological Investigation in Douglas County, Oregon

Creator:: Newell, Zachary A.
Abstract:: Coastal stream basins are of great importance to efforts aimed at refining our understanding of the earliest populations that inhabited the ancient Oregon coast. However, geomorphic responses to post-glacial sea level rise in these settings has produced depositional environments that destroy or deeply bury late Pleistocene and early Holocene-age archaeological...

Monitoring Streamflow Response to Effects of Climate Change in the Kenai Peninsula and Prince William Sound Region of Southcentral Alaska

Creator:: Anderson, Dean J.
Abstract:: This thesis explores the challenges of monitoring stream hydrology in a warmer and wetter climate in the Kenai Peninsula (KP) and Prince William Sound (PWS) region of Southcentral Alaska, located on the traditional territories of the Dena’ina, Ahtna, Alutiiq/Sugpiaq, and Eyak People. The physical and climatological extremes of this region...

Fall Phenology, Movement, and Roost use of Little Brown Bats (Myotis lucifugus) and California Myotis (Myotis californicus) at Mount Rainier National Park

Creator:: Hansen, Michael
Abstract:: Little is known about the fall and winter ecology of hibernating bats in western North America. Filling knowledge gaps for these populations has become more urgent with the westward spread of the white-nose syndrome, a disease that infects bats during hibernation. Due to the thermal requirements of the fungal pathogen...
