Panel 2: Understanding Risk in Natural and Manmade Systems
Risk plays an increasingly large role in shaping our cities. Risks on a global scale, such as terror threats and climate change, challenge cities to prepare and become resilient. At the same time, spatial decisions are often more driven by risks on a project scale, such as political calculations or the ability to obtain finance.
The panel will focus on understanding the complex roles of risk, and look at different ways in which systems theory helps us understand risk in our cities and landscapes. For instance, it is now understood that for a city to become resilient one has to look at physical, social, organizational aspects, understand the interdependencies between these aspects, and look at the ability to ‘learn’ and adapt. [We think our cities as complex adaptive systems, systems of many components, at different levels of organization, that interact in non-linear ways to adapt to changing environments – add or not? MB] What does this understanding of cities and landscape mean for the role of designers? Can design thinking be a form of systems thinking?

Resources added to the global metal inventory through exploration over the past 15 years have been generally of poor quality (declining grades, recoveries and lack of acceptable financial return). Similarly, companies opting for an acquisitions-based strategy have had to pick from a group of poorer quality resources left from previous exploration booms, and will struggle to deliver this metal to market economically. Increasing difficulty in obtaining sufficient social and community acceptance of mining projects and potentially an energy-constrained future may exacerbate this problem, redefining what is considered ‘ore’. There will need to be more focus on deposit quality,

The document discusses two groundwater flow models developed for Lagos, Nigeria and Birmingham, UK. The Birmingham model had extensive geo-hydrological data including geology, groundwater levels, recharge rates, abstraction data, and aquifer parameters obtained from field tests. This allowed for detailed discretization, calibration, and reliable predictive capabilities. The Lagos model had limited data, requiring interpolation and extrapolation. It had coarse discretization and assumed parameters. This greatly limited its reliability and predictive ability. The document recommends improving Nigeria's geo-hydrological data acquisition and accessibility to enable more effective water resources management planning and modeling.
Molz, FJ, Rajaram, H. y Lu, S. (2004). Modelos de heterogeneidad basados en...
This document summarizes research on using fractal-based stochastic models to characterize heterogeneity in subsurface hydrology. It discusses how modern measurement techniques have revealed highly irregular and nonstationary property distributions in porous media. Researchers have explored using nonstationary stochastic processes with stationary increments to model these, which relates to the mathematical theory of stochastic fractals. The document reviews applications of Gaussian and Levy stochastic fractals and multifractals to model properties like porosity and hydraulic conductivity. It also discusses limitations like models based on increments being less predictive than stationary models, and issues around measuring media that exhibit variations on all scales. The conclusion is that additional data is needed to advance fractal-based theories, especially for 3D fracture networks.
Modelling of Seawater Intrusion
The document discusses modeling of seawater intrusion in coastal aquifers. It provides background on seawater intrusion as a natural process driven by density differences between fresh and saltwater. It describes various numerical models that can be used to simulate variable density groundwater flow and solute transport, including SEAWAT, SUTRA and MODFLOW. As an example application, it summarizes a study that used SUTRA to model seawater intrusion and the influence of tides on the fresh water resources of Nauru Island. The study found tidal forcing significantly reduced the size of the freshwater lens.
Frind-MSc-Research-Project
This document is a thesis submitted by Michael Frind to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of a Master of Science degree in hydrogeology. The thesis examines issues related to advective-dispersive transport modeling, specifically numerical dispersion and formulations of the dispersion tensor. To investigate these issues, Frind conducts modeling studies using an aquifer-scale box model under saturated conditions. The results show that with appropriate discretization, numerical dispersion can be minimized. The modeling also finds little difference between two formulations of the dispersion tensor under the conditions examined, but notes the potential benefit of an alternative formulation for variably saturated systems.
Planning for water sensitive communities: the need for a bottom up systems ap...
This document discusses a study that investigates the impacts of making average demand assumptions versus using a bottom-up systems approach for water resource planning models. The study uses highly resolved, bottom-up models of the water networks in Greater Melbourne and Sydney as a baseline. It then modifies the models by replacing the spatially and temporally granular demand inputs with various average demand assumptions. The results show that average assumptions can lead to material differences in the models' predictive behavior and outcomes compared to the bottom-up approach. Specifically, average assumptions influence predictions of future water security and patterns of water flows through infrastructure in unpredictable and sometimes counterintuitive ways. The study concludes it is difficult to support the use of average demand assumptions for water resource
3.1 population dynamics IB ESS/GEO
This document discusses human population dynamics and projections. It covers topics like exponential population growth, demographic transition stages, population pyramids, crude birth and death rates, and population projections. The key points are:
1) World population reached 7 billion in 2011 with high growth rates in developing countries. The top two most populous countries are China and India.
2) Population growth follows an S-shaped curve as countries progress through 5 stages of demographic transition from high birth/death rates to low birth/death rates.
3) Population pyramids provide insights into the age and sex structure of a population and how it is changing over time and stages of demographic transition.
4) Population projections are made
Ben Kerr - Adaptive landscapes in changing environments
This document discusses evolution in changing environments using adaptive landscape metaphors. It describes Darwin's concept of natural selection acting on variations, Wright's shifting balance theory involving semi-isolated populations on a rugged adaptive landscape, and how environmental changes can move populations between peaks. Network representations of selectively accessible paths are introduced as alternatives to landscapes. The document explores applying these approaches to microbial evolution under changing drugs and coevolution, suggesting networked models could represent accessible evolutionary paths. It raises issues for further discussion around experimental directions, visualization techniques, broader applications, and intersections with optimization problems.
Why data science matters and what we can do with it
This document discusses the importance of data science and management. It covers how developing a data management plan can help researchers meet grant requirements, increase efficiency and visibility of research, and facilitate new discoveries. Interoperability of data through standards and vocabularies allows data to be discoverable and usable by others. Provenance tracking provides documentation of the research process to improve transparency and credibility. The emerging era of open science enables more collaborative practices through social media and altmetrics, which provide broader measures of research impact.
Climate History Impacts: Studying Past, Present, and Future
The document discusses conducting a study on climate change history in New Jersey using past weather and climate data to inform future scenarios. It outlines plans to examine how society has interacted with and responded to weather systems over time using diverse data sources like records, correspondence, commerce logs and cultural artifacts. The study aims to establish climate impacts and thresholds, identify hazard responses, and determine how societal functions and infrastructure have changed. The goal is to develop climate history timelines and scenarios to inform adaptive planning and decision making. A student-faculty team called CASTLES will analyze impacts on ecosystems, water resources, air quality and more to better understand climate change susceptibility and flexibility.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

- 1. This work is supported by the National Science Foundation’s Transforming Undergraduate Education in STEM program within the Directorate for Education and Human Resources (DUE-1245025). THE MATH YOU NEED: - RATES OF CHANGE - DRAWING TREND LINES - ANOMALIES Unit 2: part 2
- 2. WHAT IS A RATE? Any change with respect to time is called a rate. Examples in the geosciences? • plate tectonic velocities (distance over time) • crystal growth rates (change in crystal size over time) • river and groundwater discharge (volume change over time) • decay rates (change in number of parent isotopes over time)
- 3. RATES OF CHANGE – DETERMINING RATES FROM A GRAPH 6.0 - 2.5 billion people 2000 - 1950 years 0.7 bill. people/yr== Calculate the rate of population growth from 1950 to 2000.
- 4. DRAW A TREND LINE Why and when do I need one? • Most exercises that ask you to construct a best-fit line have to do with wanting to be able recognize relationships among variables on Earth or to predict the behavior of a system. • Also called: best-fit line, linear regression http://serc.carleton.edu/mat hyouneed/graphing/bestfit.h tml
- 5. DRAW A TREND LINE http://serc.carleton.edu/mathyouneed/graphing/bestfit.html A best-fit line is meant to mimic the trend of the data. In many cases, the line may not pass through very many of the plotted points. Instead, the idea is to get a line that has equal numbers of points on either side. 1.plotalldata 2.drawshape aroundalldata 3.bisectthe areawithaline 4.DONE!
