Defense Presentation Title: Assessing Spatio-Temporal Variability in Watershed Nutrient Loadings Using Statistical-Mechanistic Modeling Advisor: Dr. Dan Obenour, faculty fellow and associate professor in the Department of Civil, Construction and Environmental Engineering Abstract: Nutrient pollution is a global concern that threatens surface water quality. This research focuses on characterizing critical nutrient loading and retention rates to…
Modeling Threats to the Nation's Forests Driven by Global Change Hosted by: Dr. Adam Terando Summary: Forests across the U.S. support biodiversity and provide ecosystem services, including water quality and carbon storage. Knowledge about the impacts of global change drivers, including climate and land-use change, on forested landscapes in the U.S. is therefore important for…
Spatial Variability of Earthquake Ground Motion and Deformation: Examples of How Geospatial Analytics is Shaping our Understanding of Seismic Hazards Introduction by: Dr. Dan Obenour Summary: Efforts toward improving resiliency of urban environments to seismic hazards are challenged by highly variable ground motions and deformations over large scales. The geologic structures near the ground surface…
Geospatial Insights into Youth Mental Health Hosted by: Dr. Aaron Hipp Summary: Youth mental disorders and suicide are an acute public health crisis. Yet, mental health research primarily focuses on clinical settings and qualitative methods that are local in scale or limited to the most severe outcomes (e.g., suicide). Identifying geographic hotspots in which adolescents…
GIS in the News Hosted by: Dr. Georgina Sanchez and Geospatial Analytics PhD student Margaret Lawrimore Summary: From weather to world events, geographic information systems (GIS) and mapping play critical roles in conveying news to the public. In this forum, Mr. Reinhard will showcase a variety of world news events that he contributed to as…
