Article is a case study of Mesa Verde subsistence utilizing optimal foraging theory models from evolutionary ecology to study small animal resource use during the Pueblo II to Terminal Pueblo III periods.

Article is a self-critique of human geography that explicates the basic tenets of dialectical materialism in Marx’s work and presents some human geography research that engages with dialectical materialism.

Article synthesizes recent research advances that reveal the diverse ways that fog shapes ecosystem processes.

First paper of a series on the City Health Outlook (CHO) project, which aims to establish multi-scale, long-lasting, real-time urban environment and health monitoring networks. This paper is targeted at illustrating the characteristics of the participants and examining the effects of different covariates on personal exposure at various air pollution exposure levels.

Article describes study which develops a static geospatial soil moisture model, the Soil Moisture Proxy Model, which uses soil and topographic variables to estimate soil moisture potential across a watershed in order to better understand the quality of farmland in terms of soil moisture.

Article explores the value of hydrologic modeling and monitoring with respect to two dimensions: scientific credibility and use of generated knowledge in the design, implementation, and evaluation of the watershed management program in the Camboriú watershed, Brazil.

Article describes study investigating the effects of the built-up environment on artificial light at night, focusing on construction region environments on nighttime brightness and variation with building heights and regional economic development level in China.

Study examines factors that affect power corridor classification using LiDAR (light detection and ranging) point clouds, including the class distribution, feature selection, classifier type and neighborhood radius for classification feature extraction.

This article, fused airborne LiDAR and hyperspectral data were used to extract urban objects in cloud shadows.The experimental results confirm that the proposed method is very effective for urban object extraction in cloud shadows and thus improve urban applications such as urban green land management, land use analysis, and impervious surface assessment.

Interview with Dr. Reid Ferring for the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) podcast. In this episode, Susan has a wide-ranging conversation with Dr. Reid Ferring of UNT's Department of Geography and the Environment. They discuss his professional accomplishments in the fields of archaeology and geology, why he loves teaching for OLLI, and the reasons for his interest in the relationship between science and faith.
