      • Addressing water availability and climate change issues in the Cordillera Blanca, Peru through technical analysis and community building strategies 

        Read, Laura K. (2010-12)
        Accelerated tropical glacial melt on the order of 15-18 meters per year since the 1980's in Peru's Cordillera Blanca region is alarming rural communities and urban authorities, causing them to seek technical support for ...
      • Assessing GCM performance for use in greenhouse gas forced climate change predictions using multivariate empirical orthogonal functions 

        Picton, Jeffrey (2012-08)
        Due to factors such as spatial discretization and the parameterization of certain processes, the presence of bias in models of the Earth's atmosphere is unavoidable. Whether we are selecting a model to explain past phenomenon, ...
      • Atmospheric emissions and air quality impacts of natural gas production from shale formations 

        Zavala Araiza, Daniel (2014-08)
        Natural gas is at the core of the energy supply and security debates; new extraction technologies, such as horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing, have expanded natural gas production. As with any energy system, ...

        Halpern, Rebecca Katharine (2012-05)
        Social activism is a foundation in librarianship. As community stewards,librarians regularly develop solutions to complex social issues from discrimination in the workplace to open source academic publishing. Increasingly, ...
      • Black mangrove (Avicennia sp.) colony expansion in the Gulf of Mexico with climate change : implications for wetland health and resistance to rising sea levels 

        Comeaux, Rebecca Suzanne (2010-12)
        Populations of black mangroves (Avicennia sp.) are hypothesized to expand their latitudinal range with global climate change in the 21st century, induced by a reduction in the frequency and severity of coastal freezes, ...
      • Carbon capture and storage potential contribution to mitigate climate change 

        Baca, Angel Mario (2009-12)
        Carbon Capture and Storage Potential Contribution to Mitigate Climate Change By Angel Mario Baca, M.A. The University of Texas at Austin, 2009 Supervisor: Dr. Eric Bickel This thesis evaluates the potential of the ...
      • Carbonate platform demise and recovery at the Toarcian Oceanic Anoxic Event : high-resolution data from the Adriatic Carbonate Platform 

        Ettinger, Nicholas Patrick (2017-06-28)
        The sedimentological, stratigraphic, and geochemical signature of the Toarcian Oceanic Anoxic Event (OAE) on the Bahamian-style, Adriatic Carbonate Platform of Southern Europe is examined here. New stratigraphic sections ...
      • Climate Change and Risk of Leishmaniasis in North America: Predictions from Ecological Niche Models of Vector and Reservoir Species 

        González, Camila; Wang, Ophelia; Strutz, Stavana E.; González-Salazar, Constantino; Sánchez-Cordero, Víctor; Sarkar, Sahotra (Public Library of Science, 2010-01-19)
        Background -- Climate change is increasingly being implicated in species' range shifts throughout the world, including those of important vector and reservoir species for infectious diseases. In North America (México, ...
      • Climate change framing in the New York Times : the media’s impact on a polarized public 

        Goff, Paepin D.; 0000-0003-1408-7832 (2015-12)
        While the threat of climate change grows stronger along with the consensus of scientists about the certainty of anthropogenic causes, researchers observe an opposite effect in the public’s acceptance of climate science. ...
      • Climate change impacts and water security in the Cordillera Blanca, Peru 

        Chisolm, Rachel Elizabeth; 0000-0002-3292-6399 (2016-08)
        This dissertation addresses two aspects of climate change impacts on water resources in the Cordillera Blanca mountain range in Ancash, Peru: glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) and water availability. Peru is one of the ...
      • Coenzyme B, amino acid, and iron-sulfur cluster biosynthesis in methanogenic archaea 

        Drevland, Randy Michael (2009-08)
        Methane is a greenhouse gas and a major contributor to climate change. Methanogenic Archaea produce more than 1 billion tons of this gas each year through methanogenesis, the anaerobic reduction of CO₂ to methane. Coenzyme ...
      • Cost-Benefit Politics in U.S. Energy Policy 

        Spence, David B.; Adelman, David E. (2015-08-11)
      • Decision analysis and risk management : application to climate change and risk detection 

        Agrawal, Shubham (2011-08)
        We have analyzed the application of decision analysis and risk management tools to solve practical problems associated with Climate Change and Risk Detection in the financial services industry. Geoengineering, which is ...
      • Dissolved organic matter in major rivers across the Pan-Arctic from remote sensing 

        Griffin, Claire Genevieve; 0000-0003-1944-6072 (2016-05)
        Climate-driven changes in Arctic hydrology and biogeochemistry are impacting transport of water and water-borne material from land to ocean. This includes massive amounts of organic matter that are mobilized and exported ...
      • Ecological and evolutionary analyses of range limits and biodiversity patterns 

        Behrman, Kathrine Delany (2011-12)
        The goal of this dissertation is to further our understanding of how spatially heterogeneous landscapes may impact the formation of range boundaries that then aggregate to form large-scale biodiversity patterns. These ...
      • Ecological mechanisms underlying soil microbial responses to climate change 

        Waring, Bonnie Grace (2013-12)
        Soil microbes influence the global carbon cycle via their role in the decomposition and formation of soil organic matter. Thus, rates of ecosystem processes such as primary production, soil respiration, and pedogenesis are ...
      • Essays on the optimal policy response to climate change 

        Kaufman, Noah (2011-05)
        Unchecked anthropogenic climate change has the potential to destroy human lives and wealth on an unprecedented scale. This dissertation analyzes from an economic perspective various public policy options to correct the ...
