SUMMARY:Climate Change Institute Affiliation Talk - Dawn M. Emerson
DESCRIPTION:  \nSURVIVING THE SUN: HUMAN HEALTH RISKS AND INTERVENTIONS DURING HEAT STRESS\n \nDawn M. Emerson\nAssistant Professor\nSchool of Kinesiology\, Physical Education\, and Athletic Training\nCollege of Education and Human Development\nUniversity of Maine\n \nMonday\, November 3\, 2025\, 12PM\n300 Bryand Global Science Center\nZoom link: https://maine.zoom.us/j/83936085526?pwd=PwbB6m3aAUMmqHNgPQypWKxWUaUY6Y.1\n  \nAbstract: Global warming is increasing the incidence of heat waves and cases of heat illness across the world\, which cause financial\, structural\, and personnel strain among communities and emergency response systems. Heat illnesses can affect individuals across the lifespan and in any setting\, and victims may experience absence from work or family obligations\, long-term health consequences\, or even death. Therefore\, steps must be taken to mitigate risk\, and to prepare for critical events by developing policies and educational opportunities targeted toward the public\, communities\, and other stakeholders. This presentation will review Dr. Emerson’s work on heat illnesses\, including factors that increase an individual’s risk for developing a heat illness; provide a brief overview of the impacts of heat exposure on human health (e.g.\, cardiovascular disease\, mental health) and communities (e.g.\, emergency response); and explore potential areas of collaboration with the Climate Change Institute to advance our understanding of the impact of global warming on humans\, particularly in Maine.

SUMMARY:Thesis Proposal Defense: Claudia Saldaña DeCamillis
DESCRIPTION:Claudia Saldaña DeCamillis will defend their thesis proposal on November 17 at 12PM in Stodder Hall 57. \n \nTitle: Thermophysiological responses and behavior of tropical murid rodents\n\nAbstract: Understanding the energetics\, water loss rates and thermoregulatory behavior of tropical mammals may help us understand their responses to heat and help predict vulnerability to changing climates. The Muridae are a cosmopolitan family of rodents that inhabit most biomes and many niches. Microclimate selection can influence animal energetics and nest sites can serve as thermal refuges and buffer the effects of the surrounding climate. For my thesis I will be studying the thermal characteristics of different nest sites of three different genera of tropical Murids (Sundamys spp\, Niviventer spp\, and Maxomys spp) along with their and behavior (using radio telemetry and biologgers) and experimentally testing their physiological responses to temperature (by flow through respirometry). This data will allow me to model it as a consideration once more data is collected and will be used to assess quality of predictions and analyze possible energetic responses to rarer species. Comparing these can help identify survivability and resilience via energetics\, behavior and microclimactic advantages.
