Geospatial Forum with Dr. Karl Wegmann

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

In heavily forested environments, the digital deletion of vegetation through lidar remote sensing and the generation of bare-earth digital elevation models has enhanced our abilities to observe and quantify geologic hazards. In this forum Dr. Wegmann will present examples from studies in Washington, Colorado, and North Carolina where lidar datasets allow for improved identification and…

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…
