The fundamental aim of the Oregon Wave Energy Trust’s (OWET’s) cumulative effects framework is to provide an enduring set of information, presented in an effective way to inform substantial decisions about the future and ongoing management of wave energy developments in the context of the existing and future situation. At...
Subduction zone earthquake and tsunami hazards affect tens of millions worldwide and the recurrence of these disasters can be evaluated with paleoseismic techniques, because earthquake cycles (and their supercycles) typically span many millennia. In these three chapters, I discuss a suite of analyses I use to evaluate the sedimentary record...

species; however, mountains are increasingly under threat of non-native plant invasion.
The slow pace of exotic plant invasions in mountain ecosystems is likely due to a combination
of low anthropogenic disturbances, low propagule supply, and extreme/steep environmental
gradients. The...
