Tourist-Centric Citizen Science in Denali National Park and PreserveJanuary 2017 (has links)
abstract: Citizen Science programs create a bi-directional flow of knowledge between scientists and citizen volunteers; this flow democratizes science in order to create an informed public (Bonney et al. 2014; Brown, Kelly, and Whitall 2014). This democratization is a fundamental part of creating a science that can address today’s pressing environmental, economic, and social justice problems (Lubchenco 1998). While citizen science programs create an avenue for sharing knowledge between the public and scientists, the exact program details and dynamics leading to different outcomes have not been studied in detail. The current shortcomings in the literature fall into three categories. First, the concept of ‘volunteer’ is used as a catch-all without considering how different
demographics (e.g. young, old, wealthy, poor, differently abled, local inhabitants, and visitors) affect both volunteer and scientific outcomes of citizen science. The second shortcoming: there are no standards to assess the quality of citizen science datasets. The third shortcoming: the volunteer and scientific outcomes of these programs are not routinely, or strategically, measured, or integrated into policy and planning (Brossard, Lewenstein, and Bonney 2005). This research advances the understanding of tourist volunteers in citizen science by examining these three shortcomings through a case-study in Denali National Park and Preserve. This case study included the development of the Map of Life-Denali citizen science program is a “tourist-friendly” program. Volunteers of the program use the Map of Life- Denali mobile application to record wildlife observations in the park. Research conducted on this program shows that tourists can be successful citizen science volunteers, and when compared to resident volunteers produce similar data, and have positive volunteer outcomes. The development of a fitness for use assessment, called STAAq is also a part of this research. This assessment is shown to be an effective method for assessing citizen science data quality. Throughout the development and launch of the program, stakeholders (the Park Service, and Aramark) were consulted. The Map of Life-Denali program will be integrated into the park’s shuttle and tour bus systems as an educational tool, however, the scientific merits of the program are still disputed. / Doctoral Dissertation Geography 2017

A Firmographic Microsimulation Model of Small and Medium-Sized Business Establishments: Application to the City of Hamilton, CanadaYang, Jia 10 1900 (has links)
<p>Previous research on firmography microsimulation model for the City of Hamilton, Ontario, has been conducted by estimating several crucial statistical models, which would serve as the basis for an operational computer simulation model.</p> <p>Based on the previous research, this thesis illustrates the implementation of the firmography microsimulation model for the City of Hamilton. This implementation includes the development of separate computer modules for the survival submodel, the mobility submodel, the location choice submodel and the firm formation submodel, as well as the integration of all these submodels. Meanwhile, the data storage mechanism, the simulation results visualization and analysis functions have been implemented by the support of GIS technology.</p> <p>The microsimulation model starts with the 1990 firm micro data for the City of Hamilton as the base year and proceeds year by year with the simulation. The simulation results of firm distribution are validated by 1997 firm micro data for the City of Hamilton. The validation has proved that the developed firmography model is able to capture the overall trend of urban development processes in terms of firms at the micro level.</p> <p>The limitations of the current model, especially those caused by the requirement for detailed data, are discussed, and some directions for the future research are indicated.</p> / Master of Arts (MA)

A spatio-temporal analysis of pedestrian tsunami evacuation in Long Beach, CaliforniaThiele, Tyler A. 18 June 2016 (has links)
<p> This thesis presents a general tsunami hazard assessment for the City of Long Beach, California. Although relatively rare, tsunamis from a variety of potential sources threaten Long Beach. An anisotropic, least cost path Geographic Information Systems methodology was utilized to model approximate population exposure numbers within a number of evacuation scenarios. The variables used in the model were evacuation speed and warning time. Potential vertical evacuation sites were deduced and included within the model to compare population exposure numbers with and without the use of a vertical evacuation strategy. </p><p> The results in accordance with the literature reviewed suggest that the implementation of a vertical evacuation strategy, in addition to increased community education and preparedness, could dramatically mitigate risk and reduce the population of Long Beach's vulnerability to tsunamis, and that different areas may benefit from varying risk mitigation strategies. The implementation of vertical evacuation sites in the model decreased the population exposed by an average of 79 percent (with a mode of 99 percent). </p>
