Hi and Hello!
Welcome to AmyWells.ca!
My name is Amy Wells! I am a Graduate Student in the SoilRES3 Lab at the University of British Columbia. I am studying how land management has affected silicon cycling, and the emerging technology of Radiance Fields and how they can be applied to the field of soil science for education and communication.
This is my personal website to showcase projects I am working on, such as the Virtual Soils project, media that I have captured, and other creations I am proud of!
It also serves as a testing ground for building my skills in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, so if parts of the site are broken, or look like they're still in development, the odds are that its on the list of things to build on, and improve in future!
Radiance Fields
One of the key elements of my masters thesis research is the investigation of radiance fields for the use in soil science education, and communication. I believe that they have significant potential as an emerging technology to create an accessible tool for education, and science communication.
One of the key elements I am most excited about is the combination of gaussian splat based radiance fields and PCVR. I believe that together they can create a highly immersive learning experience, that allows for key soil science skills such as soil id to be practiced on a wide range of soils regardless of an individual's ability to go into the
Key Projects
There is a lot more of my work available on this website! The papers I have been a part of, conference presentations, event photography, and soil photos can all be found in the Key Projects section!
This section of the website is admittedly the part that still needs the most development, but my time has been primarily focused on my masters research.
