Fall 2020
This thesis aims to develop a grounded understanding of the everyday experiences of disabled people in Almaty, Kazakhstan. The voices and needs of disabled people have been a long-ignored by state authorities as well as academics. This thesis intends to address this gap. I ask -- what are...

Assessing the Capabilities of a Multispectral Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) at the Santa Rosa Environmental Monitoring Super Site, Costa Rica
DownloadFall 2018
The main objective of this thesis was to assess the capabilities of an Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) equipped with a multispectral camera at the Santa Rosa Environmental Monitoring Super Site, Guanacaste, Costa Rica (SR-EMSS). Nowadays, available solutions for processing UAS multispectral imagery...

Assessing the Conservation status of Neotropical Dry forests using Geographic Information Systems and Optical Remote Sensing
DownloadSpring 2010
Planet Earth is undergoing a rapid rate of ecosystem conversion and degradation and one of the major challenges of current environmental science is to contribute to the management and conservation of biodiversity through the development of tools for assessing environmental change. The main goal...

Assessing uncertainties related to the use of satellite remote sensing indices to estimate Gross Primary Production
DownloadSpring 2024
Methods to quantify Gross Primary Production (GPP) are classified into two categories: Eddy Covariance techniques (EC) and satellite data-driven. EC techniques can measure carbon fluxes directly, albeit with spatial constraints. Satellite data-driven methods are promising because they overcome...

Assessment of empirically-derived parameters and their transferability in mountain glacier modeling and application for regional melt projections under climate change scenarios
DownloadSpring 2023
Mountain glaciers, key sources of freshwater to downstream ecosystems and users, are responsive and vulnerable to changes in climate. Understanding their current influence, their potential future changes, and consequences of those changes are all important research goals, so many modeling...

Fall 2022
Canada’s National Housing Strategy (2017) identifies LGBTQ2 people and newcomers (including refugees) as vulnerable groups within Canada’s housing system. Members of each group are known to experience significant barriers to housing in Canada. However, the unique experiences of LGBTQ refugees—who...

At the precipice of the Great Oxygen Crash: Redox-sensitive metal geochemistry in the Paleoproterozoic Onega Basin
DownloadSpring 2021
The middle Paleoproterozoic era (~2200–1800 million years ago) was host to some of the most significant perturbations in Earth’s elemental cycles, including the largest ever excursion of carbon isotope ratios in sedimentary rocks, known as the Lomagundi-Jatuli Event. This event has been linked to...
