Learning To Teach About Climate Justice And Social Justice In Science Methods, Mindy J. Chappell
Learning To Teach About Climate Justice And Social Justice In Science Methods, Mindy J. Chappell
Northwest Journal of Teacher Education
In November, the Editors of NWJTE sat down for a conversation with Dr. Mindy J. Chappell, a Science Teacher Educator in the College of Education at Portland State University. Dr. Chappell’s passions include developing teachers who are prepared to disrupt normative science ideologies and provide young people with science instruction that encourages and empowers them to be leaders in their communities. She engages in arts-based educational science research through the methodology of Ethnodance (a term she coined). She places young people and their lived experiences at the heart of her work.
An Analysis Of The Reactivation Potential Of A Deep-Seated Landslide In The Oregon Coast Range Under Varying Hydrologic Conditions With Seismic Triggering, Emily E. Smoot
Anthós
Landslides can occur in many locations across the world and have the potential to be extremely destructive if failures occur near populated areas. Failures are most likely to occur on slopes that have already experienced numerous failures. This means they are a considerable hazard, and the risk involved with building in areas that have previously experienced landslides should be adequately understood. This study examines the reactivation potential of a deep-seated landslide located in the Oregon Coast Range. The analysis of this landslide included creating a map of the surface morphology and computing the factor of safety for the deposit using …
Trajectory Analysis Of Black Carbon In The Arctic Region, Kimberly Gottschalk
Trajectory Analysis Of Black Carbon In The Arctic Region, Kimberly Gottschalk
PSU McNair Scholars Online Journal
Black carbon (BC) is a troubling particulate. Commonly known as soot, BC forms through the incomplete combustion of fossil fuels, biofuels, and biomass. It has a very low albedo compared to natural particulates making it a very efficient absorber of solar radiation. As BC is deposited on snow and ice, albedo is decreased - enhancing solar heating and increasing meltwater production. With rising air temperatures, melting rates of polar ice are increasing and are being enhanced by BC, leading to accelerated global sea level rise.
This study aimed to document sources and deposition areas of BC in the Arctic. Utilizing …
Landslide Susceptibility In Tryon State Park, Oregon, Tracy E. Handrich
Landslide Susceptibility In Tryon State Park, Oregon, Tracy E. Handrich
Anthós
LIDAR and topographic data were used to identify areas of high landslide susceptibility. An arctangent equation was used to calculate slope angle, design criteria of susceptibility and designate zones of high, moderate, and low risk.
