Seminar 1: Predicting suitability of Mississippi and Missouri river tributaries for invasive carp spawning using habitat suitability models

Presenter: Britney M. Hall, Natural Resource Ecology and Management, GIS Certificate Candidate Advisor: Dr. Michael J. Weber

Abstract

Two of the most recent and detrimental aquatic invaders are Bighead Carp (Hypophthalmichthys nobilis) and Silver Carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix). Understanding where invasive carp reproduce could be useful for predicting population expansion and developing targeted management efforts. Thus, our objectives were to estimate spawning habitat suitability of invasive carp in Iowa based on habitat preferences of river length, sinuosity, presence of turbulent hardpoints, and water temperature and flow. We modelled 20 rivers by dividing each river into 25 km segments and used color infrared imagery as a reference when using automation and point features in GIS to digitize preferred habitat criteria. River segments were analyzed for changes in reproductive suitability as a function of three different weighted models using the Suitability Modeler environment in GIS to assess varying levels of contribution for each habitat criterion. Results from this study could help improve the efficiency of monitoring and removal efforts by identifying locations predicted to be well suited for adult aggregation and reproduction.

Seminar 2: Identifying Spatial Threats to Blanding’s Turtle Populations in Iowa

Presenter: Lizzy Lang, Natural Resources and Ecology Management, GIS Certificate Candidate Advisor: Dr. Anna M. Tucker & Dr. Stephen J. Dinsmore

Abstract

Blanding’s turtles (Emydoidea blandingii) are declining throughout their range and are a species of greatest conservation need in Iowa. We monitored Blanding’s turtles throughout 2023 and into 2024 using radio telemetry, and used their estimated home ranges to identify potential spatial threats at our study sites. We repeated this process across Iowa and compared it to a Blanding's turtle habitat suitability model to use in a population viability analysis on the species. Spatial threats were characterized as different types of anthropogenic development (i.e. agriculture, roads, and urbanization), and identified using raster images from the National Land Cover Database. All land cover analysis was performed in ArcPro using general tools (for manipulating raster and vector data), digitizing, and statistical summaries. Analysis of home range and population viability was performed in R using the packages "sf" and "popbio" respectively. We found several potential spatial threats at our sites, and across Iowa, that could affect Blanding’s turtle population viability. These mostly consist of agricultural development and roads.

Seminar 1: Floodplain sediment and phosphorus accretion in the West Nishnabotna River corridor, Iowa

Presenter: Kelvin Baah, Natural Resource Ecology and Management, GIS Certificate Candidate Advisor: Dr. Peter Moore

Abstract

Significant amounts of phosphorus entering fluvial systems in Iowa originate from eroding streambanks rather than direct agricultural runoffs. Fine alluvial sediments in riverbanks, often enriched in legacy phosphorus, are transferred to surface waters upon bank erosion. In large rivers across the agricultural Midwest, most total phosphorus is transported as particulate phosphorus. Some sediment and phosphorus can be returned to the floodplain during overbank flow conditions. Floodplain surface height and vegetation type and distribution are expected to influence the magnitude of overbank sediment deposition, but few studies have quantified these roles. This study aims to characterize the influence of floodplain height and vegetation on the magnitude and spatial distribution of sediment and phosphorus accretion in the West Nishnabotna River corridor. Floodplain height was estimated using the HAND (height above nearest drainage) GIS algorithm. Vegetation communities were mapped by reclassifying existing land cover according to field observations. These data are being analyzed alongside sediment accretion using LiDAR-based geomorphic change detection. This study will enlighten us on how floodplain height and different vegetation communities trap sediment and phosphorus during floods.

Seminar 2: Creating a New Digital Soil Map for Nigeria to Inform Decisions for Sustainable Agricultural Productivity and Food Security

Presenter: Oyeyemi Raphael OYELEKE, Agronomy, GIS Certificate Candidate Advisor: Dr. Bradley Miller

Abstract

The objective of this project is to create a new digital soil map for Nigeria to replace the traditional Soil map produced in 1964, which will inform decisions for sustainable agricultural productivity and  Food security. The procedure will involve using Nigeria georeferenced soil data, remote sensing data, and digital terrain derivatives to create the environmental covariates stack. The data integration begins with extracting values from the covariate stack for the soil observation points. That dataset is then split. (80%) for training and validation (20%) for the machine learning algorithm using Cubist. The model generated by Cubist is applied to the covariate stack to produce a continuous map of soil properties. The reserved 20% of soil observations are then used to evaluate the prediction accuracy of the spatial model and communicate the level of uncertainty to end users.

Seminar 3: Movement Ecology of the Mountain Plover (Charadrius montanus)

Presenter: Rachel Siller, Natural Resources and Ecology Mangaement, GIS Certificate Candidate Advisor: Dr. Stephen Dinsmore

Abstract

The Mountain Plover (Charadrius montanus) is a medium-sized shorebird that breeds in the Great Plains and has experienced recent population declines. During the summers of 2021-2023, I placed high-frequency GPS tags on plovers in Phillips County, Montana. I used a leg-loop harness to permanently attach the tags, which allowed for data collection across the full annual cycle. With this fine-scale movement data we gained new insight into breeding behavior from incubation through post-breeding, such as plovers’ use of prairie-dog colonies, incubation behavior, and brood movements. From the plovers that returned, we were also able to gain insight into the timing of migration and details about their route and stopover locations. Understanding how plovers move across the landscape and how these movement patterns differ between life stages can help guide management decisions.    The GIS Seminar Series is hosted by the Department of Community and Regional Planning.   [post_title] => GIS Seminar Series: May 6, 2024 [post_excerpt] => [post_status] => publish [comment_status] => open [ping_status] => closed [post_password] => [post_name] => gis-seminar-series-may-6-2024 [to_ping] => [pinged] => [post_modified] => 2024-03-19 17:37:07 [post_modified_gmt] => 2024-03-19 17:37:07 [post_content_filtered] => [post_parent] => 0 [guid] => https://www.design.iastate.edu/?post_type=tribe_events&p=49098 [menu_order] => 0 [post_type] => tribe_events [post_mime_type] => [comment_count] => 0 [filter] => raw ) [11] => WP_Post Object ( [ID] => 10002438 [post_author] => 6 [post_date] => 2023-12-14 18:41:00 [post_date_gmt] => 2023-12-14 18:41:00 [post_content] => Work by 24 graduating seniors in integrated studio arts will be displayed in Spectrum, the 2024 BFA exhibition, from May 2–9 in Gallery 181.

What is Convocation?  The College of Design convocation is a separate event from the official Iowa State University commencement ceremonies. Convocation includes only students from the College of Design and allows students and their guests a shorter, more individualized celebration of their achievement. Convocation will include greetings from Design administration, remarks by faculty representatives from each department and individual recognition of each graduating student in attendance. Diploma covers are not presented at convocation.

RSVP for Graduation & Convocation Candidates for graduation should RSVP online via AccessPlus. Under Student, choose Graduation and complete all required fields. The RSVP link will be active until Tuesday, May 7. Students who did not register for convocation but would still like to attend will be asked to complete a blank walking card before the event. Faculty Representative Voting A faculty member from each department will be invited to speak at graduation convocation. Graduating students are encouraged to vote for the faculty member who has made an impact on their education in the College of Design, by following this link and selecting Graduation Speaker Voting.

Seminar 1: Predicting suitability of Mississippi and Missouri river tributaries for invasive carp spawning using habitat suitability models

Presenter: Britney M. Hall, Natural Resource Ecology and Management, GIS Certificate Candidate Advisor: Dr. Michael J. Weber

Abstract

Two of the most recent and detrimental aquatic invaders are Bighead Carp (Hypophthalmichthys nobilis) and Silver Carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix). Understanding where invasive carp reproduce could be useful for predicting population expansion and developing targeted management efforts. Thus, our objectives were to estimate spawning habitat suitability of invasive carp in Iowa based on habitat preferences of river length, sinuosity, presence of turbulent hardpoints, and water temperature and flow. We modelled 20 rivers by dividing each river into 25 km segments and used color infrared imagery as a reference when using automation and point features in GIS to digitize preferred habitat criteria. River segments were analyzed for changes in reproductive suitability as a function of three different weighted models using the Suitability Modeler environment in GIS to assess varying levels of contribution for each habitat criterion. Results from this study could help improve the efficiency of monitoring and removal efforts by identifying locations predicted to be well suited for adult aggregation and reproduction.

Seminar 2: Identifying Spatial Threats to Blanding’s Turtle Populations in Iowa

Presenter: Lizzy Lang, Natural Resources and Ecology Management, GIS Certificate Candidate Advisor: Dr. Anna M. Tucker & Dr. Stephen J. Dinsmore

Abstract

Blanding’s turtles (Emydoidea blandingii) are declining throughout their range and are a species of greatest conservation need in Iowa. We monitored Blanding’s turtles throughout 2023 and into 2024 using radio telemetry, and used their estimated home ranges to identify potential spatial threats at our study sites. We repeated this process across Iowa and compared it to a Blanding's turtle habitat suitability model to use in a population viability analysis on the species. Spatial threats were characterized as different types of anthropogenic development (i.e. agriculture, roads, and urbanization), and identified using raster images from the National Land Cover Database. All land cover analysis was performed in ArcPro using general tools (for manipulating raster and vector data), digitizing, and statistical summaries. Analysis of home range and population viability was performed in R using the packages "sf" and "popbio" respectively. We found several potential spatial threats at our sites, and across Iowa, that could affect Blanding’s turtle population viability. These mostly consist of agricultural development and roads.

Seminar 1: Floodplain sediment and phosphorus accretion in the West Nishnabotna River corridor, Iowa

Presenter: Kelvin Baah, Natural Resource Ecology and Management, GIS Certificate Candidate Advisor: Dr. Peter Moore

Abstract

Significant amounts of phosphorus entering fluvial systems in Iowa originate from eroding streambanks rather than direct agricultural runoffs. Fine alluvial sediments in riverbanks, often enriched in legacy phosphorus, are transferred to surface waters upon bank erosion. In large rivers across the agricultural Midwest, most total phosphorus is transported as particulate phosphorus. Some sediment and phosphorus can be returned to the floodplain during overbank flow conditions. Floodplain surface height and vegetation type and distribution are expected to influence the magnitude of overbank sediment deposition, but few studies have quantified these roles. This study aims to characterize the influence of floodplain height and vegetation on the magnitude and spatial distribution of sediment and phosphorus accretion in the West Nishnabotna River corridor. Floodplain height was estimated using the HAND (height above nearest drainage) GIS algorithm. Vegetation communities were mapped by reclassifying existing land cover according to field observations. These data are being analyzed alongside sediment accretion using LiDAR-based geomorphic change detection. This study will enlighten us on how floodplain height and different vegetation communities trap sediment and phosphorus during floods.

Seminar 2: Creating a New Digital Soil Map for Nigeria to Inform Decisions for Sustainable Agricultural Productivity and Food Security

Presenter: Oyeyemi Raphael OYELEKE, Agronomy, GIS Certificate Candidate Advisor: Dr. Bradley Miller

Abstract

The objective of this project is to create a new digital soil map for Nigeria to replace the traditional Soil map produced in 1964, which will inform decisions for sustainable agricultural productivity and  Food security. The procedure will involve using Nigeria georeferenced soil data, remote sensing data, and digital terrain derivatives to create the environmental covariates stack. The data integration begins with extracting values from the covariate stack for the soil observation points. That dataset is then split. (80%) for training and validation (20%) for the machine learning algorithm using Cubist. The model generated by Cubist is applied to the covariate stack to produce a continuous map of soil properties. The reserved 20% of soil observations are then used to evaluate the prediction accuracy of the spatial model and communicate the level of uncertainty to end users.

Seminar 3: Movement Ecology of the Mountain Plover (Charadrius montanus)

Presenter: Rachel Siller, Natural Resources and Ecology Mangaement, GIS Certificate Candidate Advisor: Dr. Stephen Dinsmore

Abstract

The Mountain Plover (Charadrius montanus) is a medium-sized shorebird that breeds in the Great Plains and has experienced recent population declines. During the summers of 2021-2023, I placed high-frequency GPS tags on plovers in Phillips County, Montana. I used a leg-loop harness to permanently attach the tags, which allowed for data collection across the full annual cycle. With this fine-scale movement data we gained new insight into breeding behavior from incubation through post-breeding, such as plovers’ use of prairie-dog colonies, incubation behavior, and brood movements. From the plovers that returned, we were also able to gain insight into the timing of migration and details about their route and stopover locations. Understanding how plovers move across the landscape and how these movement patterns differ between life stages can help guide management decisions.    The GIS Seminar Series is hosted by the Department of Community and Regional Planning.   [post_title] => GIS Seminar Series: May 6, 2024 [post_excerpt] => [post_status] => publish [comment_status] => open [ping_status] => closed [post_password] => [post_name] => gis-seminar-series-may-6-2024 [to_ping] => [pinged] => [post_modified] => 2024-03-19 17:37:07 [post_modified_gmt] => 2024-03-19 17:37:07 [post_content_filtered] => [post_parent] => 0 [guid] => https://www.design.iastate.edu/?post_type=tribe_events&p=49098 [menu_order] => 0 [post_type] => tribe_events [post_mime_type] => [comment_count] => 0 [filter] => raw ) [11] => WP_Post Object ( [ID] => 10002438 [post_author] => 6 [post_date] => 2023-12-14 18:41:00 [post_date_gmt] => 2023-12-14 18:41:00 [post_content] => Work by 24 graduating seniors in integrated studio arts will be displayed in Spectrum, the 2024 BFA exhibition, from May 2–9 in Gallery 181.
