Lucy Kerhoulas & Rosemary Sherriff
Forestry, Fire & Rangeland Management
Kerhoulas and Sherriff were awarded $75,000 from USDA McIntire-Stennis for their proposal "Tree mortality and regeneration across competitive and geographic gradients in Northern California."
Daniel Jones
Forestry, Fire & Rangeland Management
Daniel Jones, an HSU Forestry major with a concentration in operations, won 1st place in the student web map/app contest at the California Geographic Information Systems (CalGIS) 2020, conference in Long Beach, California, on February 9-11th.
Daniel’s web map/app “ArcCollector Spillway Inspection Workflow for the Humboldt Bay Municipal Water District” has been deployed for the use of the District since 2019. The use of this workflow has reduced the post-processing time of inspection/repair cataloging and reporting from 1 to 2 days down to an hour. The second iteration of his project is expected to bring inspection times down from approximately 2 minutes to about 2 – 30 seconds.
