In this project, GSP 330 (Mobile Mapping) students evaluated 3 methods of collecting three dimensional (3D) data at Ma-le'l Dunes Park in Arcata, CA. Data was collecting using 1) Autolevels, 2) Total Stations, and 3) Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). The XYZ data collected by the first two methods were converted to GIS data and then modeled into a Digital Elevation Model (DEM). Aerial images from the UAV were processed with Photoscan's Structure from Motion (SfM) algorithm to generate a point cloud and DEM. The point clouds from all methods were then processed into cut-fill rasters and Triangulated Irregular Networks (TINs) for visualization and comparison.

We will be talking about the reintroduction of California Condor in Northern California. Seeing how it can benefit the local Yurok tribe and ecosystem.

Our project is focused on developing educational materials on energy efficiency targeted to renters and student residence hall occupants. We are developing a checklist of possible actions that will include building energy efficiency, appliances, transportation, and energy purchasing options that are available to typical renters, who do not have the ability to make major improvements to their home. The main outcome will be a set of appropriate outreach materials to help deliver these messages. We will develop draft materials, workshop these with current renters, and improve the messages based on their feedback. The goal is to empower renters to make positive clean energy choices.

I will be presenting a poster and an oral presentation on Professional Networking Communications (P.N.C). Being able to attain new opportunities through the art of communication is what P.N.C means to me. Not everyone is born with a golden spoon, so to get what you want, you might have to persuade, motivate, or enlighten someone. You can network with verbal communication, like speaking appropriately, and variating your tone of voice. However, physical communication is just as effective when networking; the way one dresses, behaves, and even stands. Professional networking communication is the skill of growing yourself and or career through person to person encounter.

The United States, on behalf of numerous Native American tribes, brought action against the State of Washington, alleging that the State violated the fishing clause of the Stevens Treaties by building and maintaining barrier culverts that prevented salmon movement along rivers. This poster will show the effect of the 'right to fish' on tribal water rights and the lasting effects of these factors on forestry practices, especially road building.

This poster will show Humboldt County’s regulation and cultivation of Cannabis species nearby the Yurok tribe’s reservation boundary and Klamath River, and the effect it has on the Yurok tribe’s water rights in relation to California’s recent legalization of Cannabis.

Currently climate change is altering landscapes all over the globe and Native American communities are at the forefront of this ongoing battle. Tribes near low-lying coastal areas are most at risk when talking about climate change and the I've chosen to focus on three tribes in Alaska, two tribes in Florida in the Everglades and four tribes in the bayous of Louisiana. In this poster I'll be talking about how climate change will not only affect the tribes' abilities to continue their subsistence lifestyle and culture but also their ability to collect traditional food sources and maintain their water rights held by the Winters v. United States court case.

Mycoremediation and traditional ecological knowledge or TEK implemented within Indigenous communities and blended with accepted ecological restoration methods in order to restore the health of damaged and contaminated ecosystems.

Applying data collected during lab in BIOL 410, we treated human embryonic kidney (HEK) cells to trigger the autophagy pathway. After treating the cells in standard growth conditions and nutrient deprived conditions, we used transmission electron micrioscopy to visualize these cells in hopes of imaging the formation of autophagosomes.

My poster is about the Yurok tribe's wetland restorations with a focus on amphibian diversity with regard to the ongoing amphibian extinction.
