SUMMARY:Seth Campbell - Brown Bag - The Juneau Ice Field Research Program
DESCRIPTION:72 Year Legacy of Academic Research & Training in Polar and Mountain Earth Systems Science: The Juneau Icefield Research Program\nThe Foundation for Glacier & Environmental Research (FGER) is a non-profit that oversees the Juneau Icefield Research Program (JIRP).  JIRP has operated since 1946 and is the longest running program of its kind in North America. Throughout its history\, JIRP has inspired over 2000 students in glaciology and related Polar Earth systems science through field-based learning and research.  An Academic Council and Science Advisory Committee\, charged with designing the curriculum and research\, respectively\, includes scientists and educators from nationally and internationally recognized Earth systems and polar research programs around the world.  JIRP has dozens of faculty who volunteer over 40\,000 cumulative hours to teach academic material each season.  Faculty also bring cutting-edge scientific research to the Icefield and actively involve students in field work. In addition\, JIRP has over a dozen field staff and medical professionals who act as student mentors\, guides\, and safety personnel.  Research shows that structured science education programs with diverse research and academic resources are some of the most effective tools for engaging students in STEM fields over the long-term.  In addition to offering exposure to a wide array of research and academics\, JIRP capitalizes on proven near-peer mentoring strategies. Current students are mentored and receive guidance from junior staff only slightly older but in the early career science stage\, to facilitate their field experiences. JIRP has successfully used student research engagement and near-peer mentoring methods for decades. Their 72-year legacy of alumni who work in academic and policy-related fields is a testament to the program’s effectiveness.  This presentation will summarize these prior successes and a future vision of JIRP growing into a more active global polar community science and education resource. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Joseph Manning Lecture:  Volcanoes\, The Nile\, and the End of Ancient Egypt
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, October 30\, 2018\nat 7:00 pm in 100 Donald P. Corbett Bldg\, University of Maine\, Orono \n  \nManning will present recent research that integrates Paleoclimatology and Hellenistic history with a particular focus on Ptolemaic Egypt. His lecture will center on recent work that connects explosive volcanic eruptions and the impact of these volcanic eruptions on Nile river flow. Prof. Manning observed that explosive volcanic eruptions resulted in a reduction in global precipitation. This was particularly dramatic in the case of the African monsoon that drove the annual flood of the Nile. Prof. Manning and his colleagues demonstrated the connection between these volcanic eruptions and Nile flood suppression and how these events resulted in social unrest in Ptolemaic Egypt. \nSponsored by:\nHudson Museum\, Anthropology Department\, Climate Change Institute\, and the Gradute School. \n

SUMMARY:CCI Lecture Series - Rick Eason
DESCRIPTION:UMAINE’S HIGH ALTITUDE BALLOONING PROGRAM \nDr. Rick Eason\nAssociate Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering\nUniversity of Maine\n\nFriday\, November 9th\, 2018\, 2PM\n138 Sawyer Building Conference Room\n\nAbstract: Rick Eason\, an Associate Professor in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Maine started his high altitude ballooning program in early 2011 with funding from the Maine Space Grant Consortium. Dr. Eason and his students launch high altitude balloons with payloads totaling up to 12 pounds into the stratosphere typically reaching altitudes of around 35 kilometers. The payloads are tracked and recovered after of a flight of around two and a half hours. To date\, he and his students have launched around 90 high altitude balloons with 100% payload recovery. In this presentation Dr. Eason will describe the high altitude ballooning activity and will relate some of his experiences.

SUMMARY:CCI Lecture Series - Justin Lapp
DESCRIPTION:USING SOLAR THERMAL HEAT FOR HIGH TEMPERATURE ENERGY DEMANDS\nJustin Lapp\nAssistant Professor\, Mechanical Engineering\nUniversity of Maine \nTuesday\, November 20\, 2018\, 2PM\n138 Sawyer Environmental Research Building \n  \nAbstract: In just 108 minutes the earth receives as much energy from the sun as humans consume in one year from all sources. What if we could harness that energy to power our world in a way that is not only free from CO2 emissions\, but is cheaper than current methods? By using the sun’s rays directly in places where thermal energy is required\, it is possible to make highly efficiency use of the solar resource. Dr. Lapp will present ongoing work to develop new generations of technologies which will allow industries like chemical\, cement and glass\, metal refining\, and fertilizer to use direct solar energy in place of fossil fuels.

SUMMARY:CCI Lecture Series  - Manuel Woersdoerfer
DESCRIPTION:BANKS AND CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION – A BUSINESS-ETHICAL ANALYSIS\nManuel Woersdoerfer\nAssistant Professor\nSchool of Computing and Information Science\, and\nMaine Business School\, University of Maine\nThursday\, November 29\, 2018\, 2PM\n138 Sawyer Building \n  \nAbstract: Banks and other financial institutions are among those agents in the global political economy which (co-)determine whether or not financial resources are used in an ethical and environmentally friendly manner. As such\, they are key actors in the transition towards an ethical and green (low-carbon or carbon-free) economy; that is\, by ‘voting’ with their money\, they ideally help catalyzing the process towards economic\, ecological\, and social sustainability. In this talk\, I will first take a closer look at the current relationship between the finance and fossil-fuel industries. After that\, I will analyze recent trends in the banking sector such as the divestment movement and climate or green bonds. Last but not least\, I will provide business-ethical arguments for the so-called business case for climate change mitigation (and adaptation).

SUMMARY:A Research Agenda:  Current Research Projects and Plans for Collaboration - Linda Markowsky
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, February 7\, 2019\, 2PM\n138 Sawyer Conference Room\n  \nAbstract: Automated and semi-automated systems that derive actionable information from massive\, heterogeneous datasets are essential for many applications\, and the reasoning of such systems must be as clear as possible in order to earn our trust. Lattice data analytics\, a current research project\, is intended to extend the bounds of lattice theory and its applications. If successful\, the information-awareness algorithms will lead to automated explanatory methods for machine learning. The algorithms\, based on three novel lattice-theoretic concepts (the target/event lattice\, the temporal poset of irreducibles\, and the lattice entropy)\, are being designed to be capable of detecting structure in temporal\, multivariate datasets. They will use the concept of a Dedekind-MacNeille completion to clarify predictive relationships between lattice nodes\, which will represent real or virtual targets and/or events. It is expected that the algorithms will tolerate missing\, messy\, or otherwise incomplete data. The poset of irreducibles will be used to compress the data and to further enable the modified Dedekind-MacNeille completion algorithm to run on massive datasets in near-real time. A free\, open-source Python toolkit will be made available to support the use and visualization of the lattice-theoretic data exploration and analytic algorithms\, thereby enabling researchers and developers to rapidly produce systems that leverage the novel data analysis technique. The Carver2 target rating program\, which includes a small dataset of partially ordered potential targets\, is used to illustrate the functionality of the toolkit. Future work includes implementation of interactive lattice visualization tools and analysis of the algorithms using real datasets. It is hoped that collaboration with the Climate Change Institute will lead to the application of the lattice-theoretic data analysis algorithms to climate change datasets as well as to the development of interactive information visualizations of interest to both researchers and educators. Preliminary talks have laid the groundwork for collaboration with researchers in the Climate Change Institute\, TIEMS (The International Emergency Management Society)\, and the HERACLES Project\, an EU-funded program to protect cultural heritage sites from the effects of climate change.

SUMMARY:Survival Skills for the Athropocene: What Marine Heatwaves and Other Ocean Surprises Can Teach Us About Living in a Warming World - Andrew Pershing
DESCRIPTION:Andrew J. Pershing\nChief Scientific Officer\,\nGulf of Maine Research Institute\nFriday\, February 15\, 2019\, 2:30 PM\n100 BGSC\n  \nAbstract: The community of species as well as human institutions and activities at a given location have been shaped by historical conditions (both mean and variability) at that location. Anthropogenic climate change is now adding strong trends on top of existing natural variability. These trends elevate the frequency of “surprises”—conditions that are unexpected based on recent history. The term “heatwave” was not used in an oceanographic context before 2013\, but since then\, there has been a proliferation of heatwaves around the globe. These events have disrupted ecosystems and human communities\, but they have also prompted adaptive change. A simple model of human adaptation reveals that these surprises will increasingly challenge natural modes of adaptation that rely on historical experience. This work demonstrates increasing benefits for individuals and institutions from betting that trends will continue\, but\nthis strategy represents a radical shift that will be difficult for many to make.

SUMMARY:Racing the Clock to Preserve the Past… A community-based approach to managing Maine’s shell middens - A. Kelley & B. Newsom
DESCRIPTION:Alice R. Kelley\, Climate Change Institute & School of Earth and Climate Sciences\, UMaine\nBonnie Newsom\, Dept. of Anthropology\, UMaine\nThe Maine Midden Minders is a volunteer\, citizen science organization being developed to help document and moni-tor Maine’s eroding shell middens. These features are composed of mollusk shells\, artifacts\, and faunal remains\, and archive up to 4\,000 years of coastal occupation by the state’s indigenous population. Over 2\,000 of these sites exist along the Maine coast\, and virtually all are threatened by climate change. Only one or two middens are professionally excavated each year due to funding constraints. Valuable archaeological and paleoenvironmental information is lost to the sea with each storm. The Midden Minders program will train interested volunteers to document seasonal to an-nual changes at middens. Measurements are made using simple tools\, and site conditions are documented using digi-tal photography. This information is collected into a specially designed database that will be used to identify vulnerable sites and allocate limited resources by researchers and cultural resource managers. \nAlice Kelley is a geoarchaeologist with interests in past human/landscape interactions\, cultural heritage preservation\, and the application of ground-penetrating radar to the investigation of archaeological sites. Kelley is particularly inter-ested in investigating how changing climate has affected humans in the past\, and its impacts on our cultural heritage. Bonnie Newsom is an Indigenous archaeologist interested in the pre-contact lifeways of Maine’s Native peoples. She seeks to humanize people in the past by exploring concepts of identity\, social boundaries\, and human agency. Newsom has worked in the cultural resources management sector\, as well as serving as the Tribal Historic Preservation Officer for the Penobscot Indian Nation. \n
