Geospatial Forum with Dr. Christopher Osburn

The world is getting hotter and in many cases wetter. Impacts on coastal carbon cycling are becoming realized yet our ability to model these processes remain in their early stages. Knowledge gained from specific case studies will form a basis for considering pulses of extreme events occurring amongst the presses of land use change and…

Department Seminar (Virtual)

Speaker: Laura Waters, New Mexico Tech, (hosted by Ethan Hyland) Seminar Title: Why Doesn't Continental Crust Evolve to its Fullest Potential? Abstract: The paucity of high-silica rhyolite in volcanic arcs and its restricted occurrence as scattered aplite dikes throughout arc granitoid batholiths suggests there is a mechanism that prevents high-silica (near-eutectic) rhyolite melts from coalescing and erupting…

Geospatial Forum with Mr. Anthony Calamito

As sensors are getting smaller, cheaper, and more efficient, data collection is no longer limited to high-end users. It can now be done from a variety of commodity platforms such as commercial drones, consumer automobiles, and even the phones in our pockets. We are now collecting more data than humans can interpret manually, and we…
