SIMPLE-G Model Outputs Visualization

A substantial portion of the projected future stress on U.S. water resources arises from external factors. Specifically, the rising incomes and populations overseas drive an increased demand for food. This demand, in turn, affects the virtual water trade embedded in exported crops. Here, you can explore the estimated contribution of global drivers in future stress on water resources as estimated by SIMPLE-G model.

Modeling the relationship between urban tree canopy, land cover, and land surface temperature

This exercise shows how to apply Machine Learning Models to explore the relationship between urban tree canopy, land cover, and land surface temperature. It lays out an initial modeling approach that combines exploratory data analysis with KNN regression and decision tree models to better understand the patterns of the data and for prediction purposes in the R environment.

Summer School 23 – Characterizing the spatiotemporal changes of wildland urban interface in the United States

Using Google Earth Engine, this group mapped and analyzed the changing extent of the wildland-urban interface from 2011-present across the continental US and characterized risk and socioeconomic factors using NASA SEDAC’s Social Vulnerability Index and LANDFIRE’s Wildfire Risk to Communities data to evaluate areas at greatest risk to wildfire.

Summer School 23 – Margins of Adaptation to Human Heat Stress: Local, National, and Global Socioeconomic Responses

With a grid-resolving economic model (SIMPLE-G), this group simulated how heat stress affects labor productivity in the agricultural sector and generates cascading impacts on farming for the continental US at fine spatial scales.

Who is facing the risk of potential dam failures?

This study proposes a framework employing spatial metrics (Bivariate Moran’s I and LISA) to discover where and whether socially vulnerable populations are more exposed to flood inundation risks induced by dam failures. This notebook, in particular, demonstrates the socioeconomic characteristics of at-risk populations, focusing on 345 dams in the conterminous United States.
