Benefits of Geographic Information Systems for State and Regional Ocean Management

Creator:: Sowers, Derek C.
Abstract:: The current and potential benefits of using geographic information systems (GIS) to support state-level and regional-scale ocean management in the United States are evaluated. Specifically, the role of GIS in facilitating improved integration of management strategies for a variety of resource use issues across multiple management jurisdictions is examined, along...

A three-dimensional mapping of the ocean based on environmental data

Creator:: Wright, Dawn J.
Abstract:: The existence, sources, distribution, circulation, and physicochemical nature of macroscale oceanic water bodies have long been a focus of oceanographic inquiry. Building on that work, this paper describes an objectively derived and globally comprehensive set of 37 distinct volumetric region units, called ecological marine units (EMUs). They are constructed on...

Swells, soundings, and sustainability, but... here be monsters

Creator:: Wright, Dawn J.
Abstract:: The Roger Revelle Commemorative Lecture Series was created by the Ocean Studies Board of the National Academies in honor of Roger Revelle to highlight the important links between ocean sciences and public policy. Dawn J. Wright, the eighteenth annual lecturer, spoke on April 28, 2017, at the Smithsonian National Museum...

GeoPost: An Army Installation GIS Cloud Management System for Facilities and Emergency Services

Creator:: Kaiser, Douglas M.
Abstract:: In the last couple years cloud services have become mainstream and easily accessible for organizations to purchase and utilize. GeoPost is a variant on that by introducing GIS to it cloud services for installation management. GeoPost takes the Microsoft Azure Cloud and using ESRI’s Enterprise builds a cloud GIS platform....

Geographic information systems : some considerations for use in geographic research and analysis

Creator:: Herstrom, Andrew A.
Abstract:: The major considerations for acquiring and using a geographic information system (G..I.S.) for regional or national geographical research and analysis are examined in this paper. After defining what a G.I.S. is, some of the more practical and useful functions of a G.I.S. in day-to--day geographical work are outlined. Finally, the...

Comparing intercell distance and cell wall midpoint criteria for discrete global grid systems

Creator:: Gregory, Matthew Jay
Abstract:: Many diverse applications have begun to study processes and patterns at a global scale. To aid in this research, discrete global grid systems (DGGSs) are data models which enable environmental modeling, monitoring and sampling across the earth at a variety of spatial scales. A DGGS can be evaluated on a...

Developing "humane" interfaces to data clearinghouses for improving the delivery of spatial information to marine resource managers

Creator:: Walsh, Kuuipo
Abstract:: Web geographic information systems (GISs) and the Internet are now providing the connectivity necessary to support large-scale data access by a wide variety of users, including not just scientific researchers, but also policy-makers and marine resource managers. However, connectivity alone cannot ensure that those who need natural resource information will...

A GIS approach to estimating continuous hydraulic conductivity and equivalent hydraulic conductivity

Creator:: Arras, Tracy Lynn
Abstract:: Estimating the hydraulic conductivity of earth materials is important for many water resource modeling efforts, including predicting the transport of pollutants in ground water, computing surface runoff for flood control, and computing water budgets. This research implicitly used topography, soil, and climate data to estimate plausible continuous hydraulic conductivity values...

Correlations of sea surface height and solid earth tides with seismicity in the equatorial Pacific Ocean : a GIS approach

Creator:: Zennaro, Barbara
Abstract:: In the equatorial Pacific Ocean, earthquakes are used as an indicator of tectonic stress for normal faults in the Galapagos Spreading Center, transform faults along the East Pacific Rise and thrust faults in the Middle American subduction zone. Linkages between seafloor tectonic processes and oceanographic and lunar conditions were explored...
