An assessment of reverse electrodialysis for application to small-scale aquatic systems
… feasibility of using RED as a power source for remote sensing devices and unmanned underwater vehicles, with a specific focus on the Arctic Ocean. A parameter sweep is developed using MATLAB in order to estimate the ideal dimensions and flow rates for an RED stack with respect to its volumetric …

Breeding Jackass Penguins as pelagic predators
… at sea. I built electronic and autoradiographic remote-sensing devices to measure swimming speed, distance travelled and time spent at each depth by foraging Jackass Penguins. Penguin swimming speed was reduced in proportion to the cross-sectional area of the devices, and results derived from …

The Scalability of X3D4 PointProperties: Benchmarks on WWW Performance
With the development of remote sensing devices, it becomes more and more convenient for individual researchers to acquire high-resolution point cloud data by themselves. There have been plenty of online tools for researchers to exhibit their work. However, the drawback of existing tools is that …

Enhancing Coastal Community Resilience in North Carolina: Monitoring Erosion and Nature-based Solution Efficacy on a Fetch-limited Barrier Island
… on-demand small Uncrewed Aircraft System (sUAS) remote sensing devices alongside survey-grade Real-Time Kinematic Global Navigation Satellite Systems (RTK-GNSS) and use innovative geospatial workflows to quantify seasonal erosion. Our results show: 1) consistent erosion during active and dormant …

Developing Procedures for Screening High Emitting Vehicles and Quantifying the Environmental Impacts of Grades
… for estimating vehicle mass emissions from remote sensing device measurements that can be used to enhance HEV screening procedures. Remote Sensing Devices (RSDs) are used as supplementary tools for screening high emitting vehicles (HEVs) in the U.S. in order to achieve the National Ambient …

A multi-sensor approach to the retrieval and model validation of global cloudiness
… Hence, the onus falls squarely upon atmospheric remote sensing to provide this burden of truth through detailed, accurate observations of the physical system. Our inability to resolve by means of traditional passive sensors the detail of information required to characterize clouds has challenged …
