We show how a distributed borehole flowmeter can be created from armored Fiber Optic
cables with the Active-Distributed Temperature Sensing (A-DTS) method. The principle is that in a flowing
fluid, the difference in temperature between a heated and unheated cable is a function of the fluid velocity.
We outline the...

We develop an approach for measuring in-well fluid velocities using point electrical heating combined with spatially and temporally continuous temperature monitoring using distributed temperature sensing (DTS). The method uses a point heater to warm a discrete volume of water. The rate of advection of this plume, once the heating is...

The influence of fire and climate events on age structure of different species was examined in
old-growth mixed conifer in the southern Sierra Nevada. Within a 48-ha stem-mapped sample area, after a
mechanical thinning, all stumps were examined for fire scars and 526 stumps were cut to ground level and...
As computation power continues to grow, the demand for data transfer bandwidth is also rising. This is reflected in the increasing data-rate of high-speed links. However, the increase in data-rate is sustainable only if the I/O energy efficiency improves as well. This dissertation explores several techniques to enable high-speed links...
