Collaborative Research: Advancing Equity and Strengthening Teaching with Elementary Mathematical Modeling (EQ-STEMM)
National Science Foundation (NSF) EQ-STEMM focuses on equity-centered professional development (PD) designed to improve mathematics teaching and learning through mathematical modeling (MM) in grades K-5. MM, “a process that uses mathematics to represent, analyze, make predictions, or otherwise provide insight into real-world phenomena” (Bliss & Libertini, p. 8, 2016), gives students equitable access to complex problem solving, quantitative reasoning and communication skills required for participation in STEM-related disciplines and civic engagement (English & Sriraman, 2010; Lesh & Zawojewski, 2007). Project goals are to a) increase equitable participation and learning of mathematical modeling for culturally and linguistically diverse children; b) develop and test tools and resources to strengthen MM instruction that leverages students’ lived experiences and cultural funds of knowledge; and c) develop and refine a model for an innovative practice-based PD that includes on-line hybrid learning spaces for teachers in diverse settings.

FY22 Advanced Medical Technology Initiative (AMTI) Program
Madigan Army Medical Center
The value of neutralizing antibodies in responding to novel infectious diseases has been highlighted during the COVID-19 pandemic with emergency use authorization (EUA) granted for five anti-SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibodies within the first 1.5 years of the pandemic. However, the rapid turn-around time for development of these monoclonal antibodies was both aided by prior knowledge of key antibody targets from SARS-CoV-1 studies and hindered by a development pipeline that had not yet been optimized. Lives could have been saved if the delay were shortened. Our aim is to demonstrate the feasibility of shortening the delay by using immunosequencing and bioinformatics methods. Using Chlamydia trachomatis, the etiologic agent of chlamydia, as a model organism, we will specifically use these methods to identify putative protective antibodies, and then validate their protective capacity in vitro.

Low SWAP-C Remote ID Device for UAS
KalScott Engineering Inc.
The FAA has released new regulations for small UAVs (unmanned air vehicles), known as the RemoteID rule. In collaboration with KalScott, Prof. Dawn is developing very low size/weight/power/cost devices for RemoteID. The devices will broadcast (on several bands and protocols) data from the UAV, so that it can be tracked in real time by ground-based users. Data gathered can be used for unmanned traffic management (UTM). This is a Phase II effort that will involve device development and flight testing/evaluation.

Salish Sea Coupled Modeling Framework
The Paul G. Allen Family Foundation
Growing and moving human populations and stressors originating from land and climate change threaten freshwater, nearshore and estuarine species and systems, as well as the social and economic systems that depend on them. The connections among these systems are poorly understood and the Puget Sound region lacks the comprehensive data and analyses to make well-informed choices. The Puget Sound region is graced by having on hand cutting-edge terrestrial, estuarine, and marine ecosystem models that have on their own been proven useful in supporting decisions and advancing understanding. Linking these models would provide a platform for gaining insights into the connected systems of human use, terrestrial hydrology, estuarine-ocean circulation and biogeochemistry, and marine food webs. This project will link the VELMA ecohydrological model, the Salish Sea Model, the Atlantis ecosystem model, a high-resolution land cover change model, and a qualitative social-ecological model under the coordination of the UW Tacoma Puget Sound Institute. This project will result in a linked set of models parameterized for the entire Puget Sound basin and its watersheds, delivering a tool with the ability to support regional planning and restoration decision-making under alternative climate, population, and land use futures for a broad range of regional objectives, from orcas to human wellbeing.

Alteration of Snohomish River Estuarine Characteristics following Multiple Large
Restoration Projects – Modeling Assessment
Tulalip Tribes
Predicting changes to estuarine hydrodynamics is often conducted as part of feasibility assessment prior to restoration related shoreline and structural modification. These assessments are conducted using available bathymetry prior to restoration actions. Through this project, we plan to conduct modeling-based assessment of the post restoration conditions. The first restoration project was completed at the Qwuloolt Marsh site in 2015, followed by projects at Union Slough, Smith Island, and Bringer Farm sites.

Evaluating the interaction of water quality and eelgrass in Coos Bay, Oregon using a biophysical model
Oregon Ocean Science Trust (OOST)
Estuaries provide important services to coastal communities and include vital ecosystems, such as seagrass beds. Seagrasses are valued, in part, for their potential to mediate ocean acidification and hypoxia (OAH), which are emerging stressors in the US Pacific Northwest. However, the susceptibility of seagrasses to various anthropogenic impacts and recent declines in seagrass have prompted the need to better understand the drivers of seagrass and the water quality consequences that occur with variation in seagrass abundance. The goal of this project is to evaluate the dynamics of pH, dissolved oxygen, and native eelgrass (Zostera marina) in Coos Bay, Oregon to elucidate OAH vulnerability and estuarine ecosystem services associated with eelgrass. Our approach leverages previously collected monitoring data (water quality and eelgrass), an existing hydrological model of Coos Bay, and an existing framework for a biogeochemical model, to produce a complete, validated biophysical model of Coos Bay. The model will then be used to run scenarios comparing water quality in Coos Bay with and without eelgrass. The analysis will be framed within the context of ecosystem services, particularly OAH mitigation, and results will inform estuarine conservation and management. In the future, the model produced by this project could be used to explore numerous additional research questions about changes in climate, ocean processes, or land use for Coos Bay. Furthermore, Coos Bay is representative of other coastal estuaries in the Pacific Northwest so the model framework, results, and management implications produced from this study will be informative for other locations.

Skagit River Estuary Hydrodynamic Modeling
Washington State University (WSU)
The Salish Sea Modeling Center (SSMC) staff while at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), developed the Skagit Hydrodynamic Model (SHDM) (Whiting et 1. 2017, Khangaonkar et al. 2017). It is a three-dimensional unstructured grid coastal tidal circulation model capable of providing dynamic oceanographic information such as water surface elevation (WSE), currents, salinity, and bed-shear at a sufficiently high resolution and scale necessary to support assessments of interactions between river flow, tides, and different restoration actions and their cumulative effects on the nearshore habitat. This is an improved version of the hydrodynamic model of the Skagit River estuary previously developed by Yang and Khangaonkar (2007, 2009). The model uses finite volume community ocean model (FVCOM) code (Chen et al. 2003) and solves the three-dimensional momentum, continuity, temperature, salinity, and density equations in an integral form by computing fluxes between non-overlapping, horizontal, and triangular control volumes. The use of SHDM was recommended by the Washington State Academy of Sciences as part of a scoping effort for a comprehensive hydrologic study of the Skagit Estuary. The overall study was planned in response to a need to address knowledge gaps that were raised by the Skagit Water Supply and Demand synthesis conducted previously by the State of Washington. The Water Research Center at Washington State University (WSU) has been tasked with developing detailed scopes for various components of the hydrologic study and executing the research through State of Washington funding. The hydrologic study piece includes five sub-projects. Sub-project 4 is titled “Hydrodynamic Modeling” that is directly related to SSMC experience and expertise associated with the Skagit River Estuary hydrodynamics and contributes to subproject 2 titled “Improve understanding temporal variation in aquatic habitat characteristics”.

Analysis of Neonicitinoid Pesticides in Mesocosms
Washington State University (WSU)
Dr. Kolodziej’s environmental chemistry lab at the University of Washington – Tacoma will assist Dr. John Stark’s research group at Washington State University-Puyallup to perform chemical analysis for neonicitinoid pesticides in laboratory mesocosm studies. This analysis is part of a study conducted by WSU’s to assess the fate and toxicological relevance of neonictinoid pesticides to various aquatic species. Dr. Kolodziej’s lab will process and analyze mesocosm samples for these neonicitinoid pesticides using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) methodologies. QA/QC samples (blanks, spikes, duplicates) will be analyzed in addition to the above samples. Quantitative concentration data will be the primary research output of these efforts.

AI-Enabled Nursing Support Platform for Latino Caregivers
Rita and Alex Hillman Foundation
The goal of this project is to develop and test the usability, feasibility, and preliminary efficacy of an artificial intelligence (AI)-enhanced nursing support platform – Caring for Caregivers Online (COCO) – to provide Latino family caregivers of children with chronic health conditions with on-demand, personalized, and emotionally intelligent caregiving support and interactive self- and family-management skills development. The objectives and activities aim to identify cultural adaptations to the current English version of COCO to improve its relevance for Latino caregivers and develop prototypes for usability testing. Throughout the process, we will build upon prior work and integrate diverse perspectives by engaging long-term community partners(n=10), including the Mujeres Latinas Apoyando la Comunidad (MLAC). We will use the Cultural Treatment Adaptation Framework (CTAF) to guide the adaptation process. After identifying key adaptation components, we will first create low-fidelity then high-fidelity prototypes in two rounds of usability testing through a human-centered design approach with family caregivers (n=5*2). The project team will modify the design of COCO in response to testing and develop a mobile application of Latino COCO for pilot testing. Next, project activities will aim to describe the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of COCO for Latino caregivers of children with chronic health conditions to improve common caregiving symptoms (e.g., fatigue, stress, guilt, worry, and sleep disturbances) using a single-arm pre-and post-test pilot design. The project team will pilot test COCO with 30 new Latino family caregivers and take precautions in preventing access-, uptake-, adherence-, and effectiveness-related inequalities according to the Model for Intervention-Generated Inequality (IGI) Prevention.

Partnering to Advance Teen Help-seeking (PATH): Innovations in Addressing Mental
Health Inequity among School Youth Populations
UW Medicine Garvey Institute for Brain Health Sciences
In this project, the study team led by Prof. Cheng will partner with Tacoma Public Schools (TPS) to implement Mental Health First Aid (tMHFA) and will examine its potential to address disparities in mental health access and outcomes for racial and ethnic minority teens. In Washington State, 74% of 10th grade students report anxiety and 20% report suicidal ideation, making it critical to promote help-seeking during this developmental stage. Research shows tMHFA promotes help-seeking for adolescents in need. However, research and theory demonstrate the influence of factors such as race and ethnicity on health behaviors such as help seeking. Research confirms help-seeking disparities among racial and ethnic minorities, due to barriers such as mental health literacy, stigmatizing attitudes, and previous mental health problems experiences. Engaging racially and ethnically diverse youth in strategies such as tMHFA holds promise for reducing disparities in access and outcomes; however, research has not previously examined this hypothesis.
