The purpose of this study is to research the effect of different animal images in swaying viewers' intent to take action for the benefit of the pictured animal species. We intend to show participants pictures of animals in different environments with different emotional states and nature pictures and use survey questions to determine if the pictures affect viewers' intentions to help organizations that help the animal species pictured. We are hoping that this research will help those working on behalf of animal conservation in selecting pictures for charity work.

We are investigating how city governments in dry parts of the Western US manage the trees that grow in their cities. In particular, we want to know what benefits they seek when managing their trees, how they plan for successful management, and how limited access to water affects their management decisions. This requires that we interview City Foresters about their jobs, as they have primary responsibility over the trees in their cities. It also requires that we review the plans that cities make about their trees, and compare how cities with very little access to water plan for trees, relative to how cities with lots of water plan for their trees.
