Trends in Playa Inundation and Water Storage in the Ogallala Aquifer on the Texas High Plains
The Ogallala Aquifer is an important source of irrigation water on the Texas High plains; however, significant decreases in saturated thickness threaten its future use for irrigation. A better understanding of the roles of playas, ephemeral surface ponds,

Limit Your Consumption! Finding Bounds in Average-energy Games [PDF]
Energy games are infinite two-player games played in weighted arenas with quantitative objectives that restrict the consumption of a resource modeled by the weights, e.g., a battery that is charged and drained. Typically, upper and/or lower bounds on the
