Loretta w88 online live casino

Professor of Economics, Interdisciplinary Outreach Liaison

Summary

Loretta Singletary is a Professor with the Department of Economics and University of Nevada Cooperative Extension, and UNR Interdisciplinary Outreach Liaison; adjunct faculty with Graduate Program of Hydrologic Sciences and member of UNR graduate faculty. She works with university faculty on teaching and research programs that require an interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary approach to effectively address natural resources issues. Dr. Singletary also works with local, state and federal agencies, groups and organizations to collectively identify and investigate w88 online live casino resource issues through community-based participatory research and outreach programs.

w88 online live casino Interests

Dr. Singletary is nationally recognized for her collaborative research approaches to investigating w88 online live casino resource issues. Currently funded programs feature partnerships with community stakeholders across Nevada, and the western United States, in addition to university faculty and graduate students. She participates transdisciplinary research with input from various levels of community-based decision-making. She is interested in the application of environmental mediation, conflict resolution, and collaborative learning concepts and skills to participatory and collaborative research practices. Her current integrated research and outreach programs include assessing and enhancing community climate resiliency in snow-fed arid land river systems; recycling/reclaiming w88 online live casino resources for food security; enhancing tribal community climate resiliency and planning; and identifying sustainable agriculture and resource management issues unique to indigenous lands.

Cooperative Extension w88 online live casino and outreach programs

  • Evaluating Alternative w88 online live casino Institution Performance:Are Food Production Systems at Risk from Changing w88 online live casino Availability? (USDA-NIFA, .9m) in collaboration with Desert Research Institute, Colorado State University, Arizona State University and Northern Arizona University.

This project aims to support food production in the intermountain west through a collaborative research framework integrating physical and economic models with stakeholder participation to evaluate outcomes of shifts in snowmelt-derived w88 online live casino supplies. Expected impacts include improved w88 online live casino management policy to support adaptation to changes in w88 online live casino available to agricultural users. The project will determine how changes in the timing of flows constrain agricultural producer decision-making and how w88 online live casino rights institutions can exacerbate or relieve these constraints. A collaborative research and outreach strategy identify and involve stakeholders directly in scientific inquiry and social learning processes. The project will produce a replicable framework that will enhance knowledge co-production and governance processes to result in w88 online live casino allocation outcomes that best represent the role and needs of agriculture and food production.

Enhancing the climate resiliency of agricultural w88 online live casino resources on reservation lands of the Great Basin and Southwestern US is threatened by the risk of prolonged drought and flash floods and projected declines in surface and groundwater supplies. Native American tribes on arid lands are especially vulnerable to climate change due to marginal soils, geographic isolation, and ongoing challenges to quantify agricultural w88 online live casino rights. Research and extension experts from 1862 and 1994 land grant institutions partner with tribal communities to assess the impacts of climate change on future w88 online live casino supplies, identify barriers and solutions, and evaluate and prioritize actions to enhance the climate resiliency of tribal agricultural w88 online live casino resources and food systems. A participatory research approach ensures that the local knowledge and perspectives of tribal communities remain at the forefront of the project, providing for social learning while protecting Native American cultural traditions and sensitive information. The project goals are to identify and address science information needs to support tribes in efforts to sustain or adopt innovative strategies to enhance the climate resilience of agricultural w88 online live casino resources and food systems as well as to support tribal college efforts to strengthen teaching, research, and outreach expertise on reservation lands.

Assessing and enhancing the climate resilience of snow-fed river dependent communities in the arid western United States has taken on critical importance in response to changing climatic conditions. Assessing climate resiliency involves understanding the extent to which snow-fed dependent communities can absorb climate induced variable w88 online live casino supplies while identifying viable adaptation strategies. Participatory research approaches, such as collaborative modeling, are well suited in this context because they are intended to draw upon local stakeholders' knowledge and their diverse, often competing, perspectives to inform science research. A key feature of this program is the collaborative modeling research design, engaging diverse w88 online live casino use communities to address complex public issues surrounding variable w88 online live casino supply, w88 online live casino policy, and climate adaptation.

  • Addressing Human Health Impacts from Emerging Contaminants in Reclaimed w88 online live casino to Enhance its Use for Urban and Peri-Urban Agriculture(USDA-NIFA, 9k)

The main goal of this project is to integrate research, education, and extension to identify, minimize, and mitigate human health impacts from emerging contaminants in reclaimed w88 online live casino, potentially enhancing its use for urban and peri-urban irrigated agriculture. The research team conducts basic research to: identify chemical contaminants in reclaimed w88 online live casino used for urban and peri-urban irrigated agriculture; determines pathways of contaminant entrainment into agricultural products; determines associated human health risks; and develop strategies for mitigation of those risks over the agricultural production chain, particularly focusing on reclaimed w88 online live casino production and point-of-use. Research results are used to enhance the decision-making capacity of: agricultural producers concerning the benefits and risks associated with reclaimed w88 online live casino use; w88 online live casino reclamation facility and w88 online live casino utility staff about the potential risks and mitigation needs and methods to improve suitability of reclaimed w88 online live casino for use in irrigated agricultural production; and affected stakeholder communities and policy makers about the feasibility and benefits/risks of using reclaimed w88 online live casino resources for irrigated agriculture.
