Using high-resolution topography for advancing the understanding of mass and energy transfer across landscapes
… mass and energy transfer across the landscape. High resolution topographic imagery derived from lidar scans, provides new opportunities in the observation and analysis of these processes, especially as the resolution of these data is proportionate to channel and hillslope process scales. Channel …

Modeling Areal Measures of Campsite Impacts on the Appalachian National Scenic Trail, USA Using Airborne LiDAR and Field Collected Data
… collected in the field and modeled in GIS using high-resolution topography (LiDAR) data, on areal measures of campsite impact utilizing Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) penalized regression for factor selection and Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) for regressions. Chosen …

Image-based 3D metrology of non-collaborative surfaces
… quality control purposes. However, generating a highly-detailed and reliable 3D reconstruction of non-collaborative surfaces (textureless, shiny, and transparent) is still an open issue. This thesis presents various methodologies to successfully generate a highly-detailed and reliable 3D …

Evolution of Deformation Along Restraining Bends Based on Case Studies of Different Scale and Complexity
… the nearby Eastern California shear zone. Using highresolution topography (i.e. UAV and lidar surveys), I studied the plausibility of faulting along two potentially nascent faults within the San Bernardino Mountains, namely the Lone Valley and Lake Peak faults. We found that while both faults …

Earthquakes in complex fault settings: Examples from the Oregon Cascades, Eastern California Shear Zone, and San Andreas fault
The surface expression of upper crustal deformation varies widely based on geologic settings. Normal faults within an intra-arc basin, strike-slip faulting within a wide shear zone, and creeping fault behavior all manifest differently and require a variety of techniques for analysis. In this …
