Soundscapes to Landscapes: Monitoring Animal Biodiversity from Space Using Citizen Scientists
Sonoma State University Professor Matthew Clark leads a NASA-funded project to monitor animal biodiversity, with the help of collaborative researchers, students, and volunteers also known as “citizen scientists”. The project, known as Soundscapes to Landscapes (S2L), relies on remote sensing, which is an important tool for long-term monitoring of biodiversity. S2L combines bioacoustic data collected by citizen scientists with satellite and environmental data to monitor bird diversity in Sonoma County, California.
toHanson Russian River Floodplain Restoration Project
The Anthropological Studies Center (ASC) will perform a cultural resources study of the Hanson Russian River floodplain restoration area to support restoration design and permitting. A complete records search will be conducted at the Northwest Information Center to examine the extent of previous cultural resource surveys and an ASC field crew will inspect any previously recorded archaeological sites or cultural resources.
toCommunicating Value and Enhancing Library Use Through Finding Common Language
This project, funded by the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) as part of the Academic Library Impact Research Grant Program, aims to investigate whether perceptions among disciplinary faculty regarding library use and value may shift after they engage with the ACRL Information Literacy (IL) Framework, a guiding document adopted by the library profession in 2016. The project will begin with a preliminary survey of current practices, preferences and awareness of library services among faculty in the School of Education.
