SUMMARY:Geospatial Analytics Dissertation Defense: Uchenna Osia
DESCRIPTION:Defense Presentation Title: Policy\, Place\, and Practice: Mapping Data into Decisions for Environmental Investment \nAdvisor: Dr. Bethany Cutts\, faculty fellow and associate professor in the Department of Parks\, Recreation\, and Tourism Management \nAbstract: Data gives us the power to understand environmental challenges and the decisions we make to address them. Yet gaps and misalignments between how data are presented and how they are used can limit the impact of environmental investment programs\, especially for vulnerable communities. This dissertation examines the relationship between data\, policy design\, and equitable outcomes across two complementary studies. It analyzes how mapping practices shape policy implementation in a federal clean transportation initiative and develops a spatial framework for aligning wetland restoration with community resilience in the Albemarle–Pamlico region. It also operationalizes these findings through a user guide and interactive map viewer that translates analysis into accessible decision-support tools. Together\, the studies show that mapping data into decisions requires balancing scientific rigor with procedural fairness and usability to advance environmental justice.

SUMMARY:Geospatial Analytics Dissertation Defense: Louis Goodall
DESCRIPTION:Defense Presentation Title: What’s all this then?: Managing Piedmont forests for balanced ecosystem service delivery \nAdvisor: Dr. Robert Scheller\, faculty fellow and associate dean for research in the College of Natural Resources \nAbstract: Ecosystem services are the goods and services that nature provides to society and the wider ecosystem. Tradeoffs are inherent in any ecosystem\, but attempts at balancing ecosystem services are of particular interest to forest land managers. This dissertation seeks to understand the combined influences of management\, climate\, and disturbance intensity on the balance and delivery of ecosystem services within North Carolina Piedmont forests. Future scenarios were simulated using LANDIS-II to understand if climate-adaptive management interventions can deliver minimized tradeoffs. Results show a divergence among climate\, management\, and disturbance intensity in fostering a low tradeoff landscape\, providing multiple management options for the remainder of the century. These scenarios describe plausible futures for Piedmont forests and provide guidelines for future land management.
