Geospatial Forum with Dr. Sankar Arumugam

Jordan Hall 5103 2800 Faucette Drive, Raleigh, NC, United States

Seasonal (0-3 months) climate forecasts and near-term decadal (10-30 years) climate change projections provide valuable information for improving seasonal and long-term planning of water and energy management. Given that the climatic attributes over these time periods are typically expressed as probabilistic information, we propose an adaptive water and energy management framework that uses probabilistic inflow…

Geospatial Forum with Dr. Michael Dietze

Jordan Hall 5103 2800 Faucette Drive, Raleigh, NC, United States

Is nature predictable? If so, how can we better manage and conserve ecosystems? Iterative ecological forecasting is an emerging interdisciplinary research area that aims to improve researchers' ability to predict ecological processes on near-term timescales that can be validated and updated. In this forum, Dietze will discuss the challenges and opportunities in iterative ecological forecasting,…

Geospatial Forum with Dr. Matthew Hansen

Jordan Hall 5103 2800 Faucette Drive, Raleigh, NC, United States

From deforestation to urbanization, the human footprint on the land surface is ever expanding, converting natural land covers into land uses or intensifying current land uses. Land use change results in loss of biodiversity, increased greenhouse gas emissions, and alteration of hydrological systems, among other impacts. Rates of land use change can be quantified using…

Geospatial Forum with Dr. Bill Rand

Online NC

Social media posts are generated both in space and time, and in the context of disaster situations, they can provide minute-by-minute and location-by-location awareness of an event and users' concerns and feelings about crises. In this forum, we investigate the relationship between natural disasters, social media, user actions and traditional media coverage. We will examine…
