An applied ontology to the Mid-Atlantic Cable: Historical to Modern Informatics Consideration from a Math Perspective
Paper(Word)
Powerpoint
Abstract: As early as the 1600's scientists in various fields world to address a global human need of human communication on a global basis by implementing the trans-Atlantic cable. The Mid 4Trans-Atlantic cable is one of the earliest forms of global commutation. Here may be the first evidence of informatics needs where science, data, and engineering were collaborated across disciplines to advance a world standard of living.  This work investigates what applied ontology may have been consisting with the thought pattern of such expertise who conducted informatics arguably without computers, ontology’s, and a cyber infrastructure. In modern context, an applied ontology may best represent the body of intentional learning, research and collaboration among scientists to achieve a human goal. Perhaps if such intentional non-partisan work can achieve a solution such as Trans-Atlantic Cable, climate change may benefit from intentional collaborative ontology’s and systems of multi user knowledgebase or expert informatics systems.

Heezen died in 1977 on a submarine cruise to study the Mid-Atlantic ridge near Ice land aboard the NR-1 submarine. 7Marie Tharp academic background is Bachelors Degree in English, Master Degree in Geology University of Michigan, and Mathematics Degree at the University of Tulsa. Tharp worked at Lamont- Doherty Earth Observatory at Columbia University. Tharp could not sail on a research vessel ship for data collection until 1965, the attempt to map the first systematic comprehensive attempt to map the entire ocean floor. 5Charles Wyville Thomson 1830-1882 Professor of Botany in 1851 University of Aberdeen 6The Royal Navy selected Thomson as chief scientist of HMS Challenger for voyage sailed in 1872 of December. The Mid-Atlantic Mountain Ridge was discovered by the HMS Challenger in 1872. Charles Tilston Bright 1832-188 Electrical Engineer who oversaw the laying of the first transatlantic telegraph cable in 1858. The Great Eastern Cable snapped in 1866 and another attempted was funded by Anglo-American TELEGRAPH COMPANY
 History of the Digital Divide during the 1600’s touches on the availability of information. 3Issue of Mathematics during the 1600’s would be lack of communications and assessment. The scientific communities cannot address climate change most largely due to language barriers amongst humans. Weight per meter for the cable and the ships weight capacity in the 1600’sWeight/per meter 2w/m=X1 taking into account that maximum depths or Atlantic Ocean was unknown at that time and still is.

Abstract: The Compact Reconnaissance Imaging Spectrometer for Mars CRISM (CRISM) carried aboard the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO), is the first visible-infrared spectrometer to fly on a NASA Mars mission. CRISM scientists are using the instrument to look for the residue of minerals that form in the presence of water: the 'fingerprints' left by evaporated hot springs, thermal vents, lakes or ponds. With unprecedented clarity, CRISM is mapping regions on the Martian surface at scales as small as 60 feet (about 18 meters) across, when the spacecraft is 186 miles (300 kilometers) above the planet. CRISM is reading 544 'colors' in reflected sunlight to detect certain minerals on the surface, including signature traces of past water. CRISM alone will generate more than 10 terabytes of data, enough to fill more than 15,000 compact discs.

Given that quantity of data being returned by MRO-CRISM, this project partners with Johns Hopkins University (JHU) Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) scientists of the CRISM team to assist in the data analysis process.
The CRISM operations team has prototyped and will provide the necessary software analysis tools. In addition, the CRISM operations team will provide reduced data volume representations of the data as PNG files, accessible via a web interface without recourse to specialized user tools. The web interface allows me to recommend repeating certain of the CRISM observations as survey results indicate, and to enter notes on the features present in the images.

Team Website Team Poster
Mentor: Kaiem Frink
Team Members: JerNettie Burney, Ryan Winder, Serenity Pender, Bernard Lynch Jr.

Key Words: Water Quality, pH, Salinity, Dissovled Oxygen, Alkalinity, Hardness, Nitrate, Conductivity, DiST WP,

Water Quality content varies from community to community and from throughout the world. A number of variances are natural differences caused by nature and some are induced by humans. The research team processed and compared the water quality results against the North Carolina Administrative Code, past CERSER research group results, local surrounding counties, statewide, countrywide and International water quality standards for samples from Austin Texas, Barcelona Spain, Pasquotank County, North Carolina, Indianapolis, Indiana & Lake Cavalier Portsmouth, Virginia. Microsoft Excel which had statistical software capabilities within this package were used to display team results. (In order to illustrate these differences between Austin Texas, Barcelona Spain, Pasquotank County, North Carolina, Indianapolis, Indiana & Lake Cavalier Portsmouth, Virginia). The team examined and utilized LaMotte testing kits, then measured pH which displayed acidity. Salinity, Dissolved Oxygen, Alkalinity, Hardness, Nitrate, Conductivity, DiST WP was also tested. The team utilized Google Earth for creating an aerial dataset utilizing KMZ scripting functionality. The team also linked and configured the Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet to communicate with Google Earth. The 2009 Water Quality Team developed the WSR Forms (Water sample request form) to record and maintain Water Quality data integrity.

Regional Scale MODIS Images
The flooding was monitored daily with NASA MODIS satellite images at regional scale, 250 - 500 meters spatial resolution, received by the Purdue Terrestrial Observatory (PTO, http://www.itap.purdue.edu/pto/). The images below represent channels 6 (middle IR), 2 (near infrared) and 1 (red) displayed as red-green-blue. Water including flooded areas are displayed as blue to black. Greenish colors below represent forested and grassy areas.  The browns and oranges represent bare ground or newly planted crop areas. Note the increase in the river flooding between June 8 and June 10. 
Summary
•The use of Landsat images for assisting in the documentation of croplands flooded by the June 2008 floodwaters in Indiana is still being evaluated. 
•Federal and State Agencies responsible for relief funds to Indiana citizens that had property damaged by the floods need documentation that the flood is what caused the damage.
•The cropland numbers shown in our initial analysis are estimates since we do not have reference information available for 2008 but the use of the USDA National Agriculture Statistics Service (NASS) data from 2007 is a good guide. 
•Farmland in the bottomland areas next to major streams and rivers have a higher percentage of corn vs. soybeans planted due to the higher possibility of corn to withstand flooding. 
•All of the counties shown in our example have been requested by the Indiana Governor to be declared by the Federal Government as “flood disaster counties”. 
•The authors are continuing to share the results of the analyses of this data with all the agencies that can benefit from having all relevant land use data and information available in making their decisions.
Forward Looking Flood Impacts Using FEMA’s HAZUS Model

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________

In order to enhance preparedness and damage assessment for future flood disasters, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has contracted with the Polis Center of Indiana University Purdue University at Indianapolis (IUPUI) to develop 100 YR Flood Digital Maps using FEMA's HAZUS modeling software, which has modules to assess damage from floods, hurricanes and earthquakes. A subsequent subcontract to Purdue University-West Lafayette entails development of such 100 YR maps for 785 countries in the USA. Given the recent devastating recent floods in the Midwest, discussions are now underway to expand the initiative to include an additional 100+ counties at risk, as well as to develop 500 year flood maps for 300+ counties in Iowa, Illinois and Missouri. The image to the right represents an output map from HAZUS illustrating expected flooded areas from a “100 year” flood (actually a 1-in-100 chance that a flood this size will happen during any given year).

ABSTRACT:          
The authors review the current state-of-the-science with respect to remote sensing applications for infectious disease vector habitat identification, as well as for enabling early warning and mitigation of epidemics, epizootics and anticipated pandemic zoonoses. Current methodologies build upon prior progress made by USAID and by UNFAO’s Africa Real-Time Environmental Monitoring Information System (ARTEMIS), in famine early warning systems (FEWS) and in monitoring vulnerability to desert locust (Schistocerca gregaria) infestations, respectively. The potential is investigated for incorporating epidemiological modeling software (e.g. IBM’s open source Spatio-Temporal Epidemiological Modeler-STEM) with data from remote sensing, in situ sensing and field investigations, so as to facilitate early warning and mitigation initiatives for an array of infectious diseases within Africa.  Moreover, the constraints with respect to cyberinfrastructure, bandwidth and telecommunications in Africa are examined, with respect to effectively supporting time-critical data dissemination for disaster management, particularly as relates to public health and safety. Finally, the details of a NATO Science for Peace (SfP) supported Planning Grant are described for development of a plan for  university-based real-time remote sensing ground stations in Egypt for early warning and mitigation of anthropogenic and biogenic disasters, including epidemics and epizootics.

Research Paper-(PDF)
Research Poster(JPG)
Power Point

Ground water is the water beneath the surface of the ground. It consist largely of surface water that has seeped down and is the source of water in springs and wells. Groundwater makes up about twenty percent of the world’s fresh water supply, which is about 0.61 percent of the entire world’s water supply (Environment Canada Website). Because it is a source for well water it is important to monitor the waters quality to insure that it is safe for consumption.

Several factors can cause groundwater pollution including septic systems, small disposal pits, house and garden chemicals, stream infiltration, landfills, underground storage tanks, and pipelines.

The 2006-07 research team will investigate the effects that a sanitary septic systems has on groundwater, in addition to other potential sources of groundwater contamination in Pasquotank County. A database will be created using ArcGIS and Visual Basic Applications to input existing and captured groundwater data. This database will be used to conduct analyzes on contamination levels, nutrient levels, and to compare residents within a certain area who have septic systems instead of wells. This study will help to identify the quality of groundwater in Pasquotank County.
To accomplish this project ArcGIS and Visual Basic Application will be utilized. Existing data will be collected from the public health department and other public agencies. Data will also be collected through ground truthing by sampling groundwater from a monitoring well.

Estimating Antarctic Firn Average Emissivity Trends at the Ski Hi Automatic Weather Station
Firn is compacted, near-surface snow enduring for more than one season not yet compressed into glacial ice. Knowledge of firn surface temperature trends across the Antarctic ice sheet is useful for documenting and quantifying change and providing a temporal and spatial context for research during the Antarctic International Polar Year (IPY). Satellite passive microwave radiometer data can provide surface temperature trend estimates across limited temporal and spatial gaps in Automatic Weather Station (AWS) coverage. Techniques to derive surface temperatures from passive microwave data have been pioneered by Jezek et al., (1993) and. Shuman et al., (1995).

Using the methods of previous researchers, the Summer 2006 Undergraduate Research Experience (URE) Antarctic Temperature Mapping Team, is comparing archived surface temperature data from an AWS on the West Antarctic Ice Sheet with coincident daily brightness temperature data collected by the Special Sensor Microwave Imager (SSM/I) aboard the Defense Meteorology Satellite Program (DMSP) polar orbiting meteorology satellite series. The ratio of passive microwave brightness temperature and AWS in-situ near surface temperature provides the firn emissivity estimate necessary to extrapolate surface temperature trends across temporal and spatial gaps in either the AWS or SSM/I record. The relationship between emissivity and surface temperature is generally known as the ‘Rayleigh-Jeans Approximation’ (Hall and Martinec, 1985). The spatial and temporal variability of firn emissivity is not well understood but known to be much less variable than daily temperature.

ABSTRACT
Automated Approach of Cataloguing TeraScan Images utilizing Exchangeable Image File Format (EXIF) Data

The Center of Excellence in Remote Sensing Education and Research (CERSER) on the campus of Elizabeth City State University is currently tasked with the responsibility of receiving remotely sensed Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) and Sea Wide Field-of-View Sensor (SeaWiFS) data for research projects year round. This data is collected, processed, annotated, and transformed into images in the Tagged Image File Format (tiff). These tiff images are then uploaded to the CERSER archive library server located at http://cerser.ecsu.edu. Once uploaded, they are converted into various resolutions and their information is added to a tracking database maintained with Microsoft Access software. This database provides a searchable means for retrieving satellite image data through various parameters.

The conversion of the tiff file to its various resolutions and the entry of data into the tracking database are currently done manually by the CERSER webmaster. The amount of time to enter one image into the system is approximately ten minutes. The process is also limited by the requirement that the webmaster be located at one computer terminal located on the campus to perform these tasks.

The goal of the 2005 ONR Multimedia Team (MMT) is to automate this process utilizing data captured from the tiff files Exchangeable Image File Format (EXIF) data. This data contains the capture time and date along with file resolution and file size. Utilizing this information will allow various scripts to be written eliminating the necessity for the manual conversions and data input to be made resulting in a more up to date and accurate archiving system of the images. Various methods and languages will be utilized including Java, JavaScript, and Adobe Photoshop Action Scripts to complete this process.

Abstract
This internship involved the development of a graphical user interface between two software packages, AD Model Builder (ADMB) and the statistics package R. The ADMB software was used to fit models and then R was used to graph them. ADMB generates a large amount of data that must be graphed in order to obtain representative results. The interface developed allows an ADMB program to output data in a format readable by R. The interface also contains a set of graphic functions in R that formulate many common graphs.

The benefits to NOAA and the Population Dynamics Team is an improved graphics function. This internship increased familiarity in general with scientific programming and particularly with the R language.

Abstract – The objective for the 2007 Elizabeth City State University-National Association of Mathematicians Computational Science and Scientific Visualization Summer Institute research project is to compare the various major types of energy sources used by the G-8 countries—Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia, United Kingdom, and United States—with the assistance of data for the years 1980-2006 from reliable online resources. Comparisons will determine specifically what types of energy sources are used by these countries and any concerns that they may produce (environmental or otherwise). This project will evaluate uses of energy for each G-8 country by using regression analysis to predict the energy consumption for each country in 2010. Lines of Regression will be displayed by graphs created in Minitab and MathCAD. Ultimately, we intend to conclude that the consumption of energy for each country will increase by the year 2010.

Abstract

The ONR 2004-2005 Multimedia Research Team studied the implementation of Macromedia’s ColdFusion Server software as a web application server for small scale online databases. ColdFusion is utilized by the ECSU staff and integrates with the current Macromedia tools employed by the ONR media developers. The team’s goal was to utilize the University server's ColdFusion software for the implementation of a small, startup site. This site involved documenting the Submerged Aquatic Vegetation (SAV) Herbarium of Northeast North Carolina waters for the ECSU Geological, Environmental, and Marine Sciences (GEMS) department. The team developed the initial site with database files in place to begin the recording of information. The future phases of will include the insertion, manipulation, and retrieval of actual gathered data. This project sought to research the learning curve, integration, and ease of use of the ColdFusion software in comparison with other web application software.
