lek disturbance buffer analysis (Animalia)
Analysis of distances between leks and buffer designations to assess disturbance impacts.
life-history trait analysis
Analysis of physical traits and behaviors affecting growth, survivorship and reproduction in response to environmental change.
plasma proteomics analysis
Blood plasma collection and proteomic analysis using aptamer-based measurements to assess protein abundance changes.
residue on evaporation analysis
Laboratory analysis to determine total dissolved solids concentration in water samples through evaporation technique.
scenario-based risk assessment (Animalia)
Framework that aligns individual threat projections into three combinatory scenarios of change (Pessimistic, Continuation, and Optimistic) based on climate and development factors.
singular-spectrum analysis
Statistical method used for gap-filling meteorological time series data at multiple temporal intervals.
snow-free growing degree day calculation
Temperatures above 5°C summed only for days estimated to be free of snow to measure energy available for biological processes.
spectral calibration and correction
Calibration using PTFE reference disk and correction for known reflectance jumps across the three spectrometers in the FieldSpec3 instrument.
structural history analysis
Examination of late Paleozoic and Early Mesozoic structural evolution of geological formations.
surface water mapping from NEON AOP
Creation of binary surface water presence map from 2018 NEON AOP dataset with values of 1 for open water and 0 for no water present.
whole genome sequencing (Plantae)
Genome sequencing to identify and characterize chromosomal inversions at the molecular level.
