Measuring Conflict Among Objective Functions in Multi-Objective Optimization
We present a process to measure the conflict among objective functions within and across multi-objective systems. To do so, we introduce a new metric to quantify pairwise objective conflict. We also demonstrate new ... -
Mortality Associated with Extreme Heat in Washington State: The historical and projected public health burden
Extreme heat is one of the most important pathways illustrating the connection between climate and human health, including in temperate areas such as the Pacific Northwest. Moreover, climate change is expected to exacerbate ... -
Quantifying sensitivity and exposure to climate change in Western North American species
Significant changes in climate over the coming century will affect different species in different ways. Understanding which species are most vulnerable to climate change is important for guiding conservation efforts and ... -
