Good on Land and Bad in Water: Effects of Fertilizer-Rich Runoff on Algal Growth

Earth & Environmental Sciences Honorable_mention Award

Farms that use fertilizer on their crops cause runoff into nearby lakes and rivers, tremendously increasing the growth of algae. In turn, this causes eutrophication and dead zones, which neg…

Landfills and Methane as Alternative Energy: What a One Year Methane Analysis Tells Us About Methane Production Using a G.E.M. and Self Made Bioreactor?

Earth & Environmental Sciences (Senior Division)

Today, there are 1,250 landfills in America, with 300 of those landfills in California. Out of the 300, only 56 are operating. Although only 56 of 300 landfills are operating, methane produc…

Positive Relationships Between Temperature Change and Vibrio parahaemolyticus Presence in Monterey, CA

Earth & Environmental Sciences Honorable_mention Award

The bacteria Vibrio parahaemolyticus can potentially be toxic and cause vibriosis infection in humans. Past work in Asia has shown that the prevalence of vibriosis related to shellfish consu…

Predicting Climate-driven Human Migration from Honduras: a Geospatial Machine Learning Model Using Rainfall Deviation and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI)
