Consequences of Cryopreservation in Diverse Strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Creator:: Wing, Kieslana M.
Abstract:: Experimental evolution is a tool that allows us to measure changes in populations over time in controlled, novel environments. Microbial evolution experiments use cryopreservation – storage at -80°C in glycerol media – to archive experimental populations. Research with Escherichia coli suggests that cryopreservation conditions can affect cell viability and that...

Spatial trends in U.S. wind energy facility siting practices

Creator:: Wiles, Nathan M.
Abstract:: The United States (U.S.) has seen dramatic growth in installed wind energy generation capacity in recent years, and that growth is expected to remain strong in the near term. The siting of wind energy facilities poses unique challenges that may be exacerbated by increased buildout. As the number of wind...

Notions of complexity in substitution dynamical systems

Creator:: Wing, David Josiah
Abstract:: There has been a lot of work done in recent decades in the field of symbolic dynamics. Much attention has been paid to the so-called "complexity" function, which gives a sense of the rate at which the number of words in the system grow. In this paper, we explore this...

Field validation of laboratory tests used in screening Port-Orford-cedar for resistance to Phytophthora lateralis

Creator:: Wing, Adam B.
Abstract:: Port-Orford-cedar (POC) (Chamaecyparis lawsoniana (A. Murl.) Parl) is an important tree species native the coastal ranges of southern Oregon and northern California. The tree is a false-cedar in the cypress (Cupressaceae) family and is used for timber and planted as an ornamental. The tree in most of its native range...

Environmental Remote Sensing with Unmanned Aircraft Systems

Creator:: Burnett, Jonathan D.
Abstract:: Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (sUASs) equipped with optical sensors are capableof remotely sensing landscapes and wildlife at spatial and temporal resolutions that werepreviously inaccessible due to technical and budgetary limitations. Conventional remotesensing and photogrammetric workflows can be applied to the resulting high resolution imageryto facilitate new types of scientific inquiry....

Invasive Plant Management Plan and Digital Tools for Big Sur Land Trust of Monterey County, California

Creator:: Nichols, Abby L.
Abstract:: An Invasive Plant Management Plan developed for Big Sur Land Trust, a non-profit conservation organization located on California's Central Coast, to guide its vegetation management activities and serve as a decision-support tool. The effort included the creation of a digital field data collection tool through Survey123 Connect, survey and data...

Effects of Woolsey Fire on Nesting Territories of Southern California Red-Tailed Hawks

Creator:: Gao, Jane
Abstract:: The relationship between fire and wildlife habitat is complex. Fires can create favorable conditions for some species and simultaneously extirpate entire populations of other species. Red-tailed hawks choose nesting habitats according to resources available. Natural disturbances such as wildfires change the availability of those resources. In late 2018, the Woolsey...

Adapting Wastewater Treatment Plants to Sea Level Rise: A Case Study of Half Moon Bay, California

Creator:: Cozzolino, Brittney K.
Abstract:: Wastewater treatment plants around the world are becoming increasingly at risk of sea level rise impacts as these facilities are typically located in low-lying areas to utilize gravity flow for influent (incoming sewage) and effluent (discharged treated sewage). As these risks become realized, treatment plant managers and decision-makers must know...

Traditional Environmental Knowledge (TEK) and Cultural Reconstruction: A Practical Application at the Red Bluff Recreation Area, Mendocino National Forest, Grindstone District

Creator:: Riske-Gomez, Jessica
Abstract:: The project location is a pre-historical gathering site for basketry materials utilized by the Wintun people within the boundaries of the Red Bluff Recreation Area. Due to environmental changes and neglect, the site has fallen into disuse and degradation. The aim of this project is ethnoecological restoration, which varies from...

Examination of airborne discrete-return lidar in prediction and identification of unique forest attributes

Creator:: Wing, Brian M.
Abstract:: Airborne discrete-return lidar is an active remote sensing technology capable of obtaining accurate, fine-resolution three-dimensional measurements over large areas. Discrete-return lidar data produce three-dimensional object characterizations in the form of point clouds defined by precise x, y and z coordinates. The data also provide intensity values for each point that...
