SUMMARY:CEREO Seminar: The CEREO Newsroom
DESCRIPTION:The CEREO Newsroom: a Resource for Communicating Research\, Training Students\, and Meeting NSF Broader Impacts Requirements \nJason Williams\, Civil & Environmental Engineering\nTodd Norton\, Murrow College of Communications\nLucrezia Paxson\, Murrow College of Communications\nRyan Risenmay\, Murrow College of Communications \nLocation: PACCAR Bldg (PETB) 135 \nThis seminar will summarize opportunities available to WSU faculty and students through the CEREO Newsroom (https://cereo.wsu.edu/cereo-newsroom/). Founded in 2014 through a CEREO seed grant\, the CEREO Newsroom pairs undergraduate Murrow communications students with graduate students conducting environmental research. Under the guidance of Murrow faculty\, the student teams create multimedia packages (videos and written articles) that address environmental problems and the research graduate students are doing to help solve those problems. Projects completed to date include profiles of WSU research focused on drought-resilient wheat breeding\, fish movement in marine protected areas\, stream biogeochemistry\, and ecological effects of nitrogen deposition at Mt. Rainier. Several example multimedia packages will be presented during the seminar. In contrast to other communications resources available (WSU communications or self-promotion of research)\, newsroom products are created by student teams and emphasize student training and experiential learning. Newsroom projects consequently are a unique and compelling way to meet NSF broader impacts or other similar grant requirements. The Newsroom has the infrastructure and expertise in place to support new projects\, including those associated with WSU proposals currently in preparation for the upcoming NSF Food-Energy-Water grant deadline. Attend the seminar or visit https://cereo.wsu.edu/cereo-newsroom/ to learn more and see examples of the high quality student-generated products the CEREO Newsroom could work with you to create.

SUMMARY:CEREO Seminar: The Hunger Games: A Case-Study of Climate Impacts and Women Farmers’ Adaptations in Ghana
DESCRIPTION:Patricia Glazebrook\nProfessor and Director of the School of Politics\, Philosophy and Public Affairs \nPACCAR Environmental Technology Building\, Room 202 \nWomen farmers in the global South have been adapting to a changing climate for some time. This paper examines the impacts of climate change on agriculture and food security in Africa\, and presents a case-study detailing adaptation strategies of women farmers in the Upper Eastern Region of Ghana. Conclusions assess the consequences of adaptation on nutrition\, health\, and childhood development. Recommendations are made to promote distributive\, intergenerational\, climate\, gender\, and food justice in international climate policy. Preliminary assessment of the December 2015 Paris agreement reached at the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change Conference of Parties (COP) is made against these recommendations\, with particular attention to the Gender Decision taken at COP 19 in Doha\, Qatar in 2012.  \n

SUMMARY:Not Such Strange Bedfellows: Bringing Science\, Nature\, and Nature Imagery to Prisons
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Nalini Nadkarni will be accepting the William Julius Wilson Award for the Advancement of Social Justice and presenting: \n“Not Such Strange Bedfellows: Bringing Science\, Nature\, and Nature Imagery to Prisons”  (CUB Auditorium\, WSU Pullman)\n \nDr. Nadkarni is a world-renowned forest ecologist who works to bring science and job training to prisons. Her innovative efforts promote social inclusiveness of prisoners and reduce post-prison joblessness. “One of the most pressing problems facing society today is the increasing distance between humans and nature\,” Nadkarni says. “Another issue—seemingly unrelated—is the failure of our system of incarceration to provide inmates with the education and experiences they need to become useful citizens after release.” \nTo address both of these problems\, Nadkarni has worked with corrections systems in Washington state and across the country to bring science and nature/conservation projects to the incarcerated\, from prisoners in minimum security to those in solitary confinement. In her presentation\, she will describe her successes and challenges she has faced at the convergence of academic science and state corrections. \nWashington State University created the William Julius Wilson Award for the Advancement of Social Justice in 2009 to honor individuals who promote social inclusiveness and diversity in social policies and strive to reduce joblessness.  The award is named after William Julius Wilson\, who received his PhD in sociology from WSU in 1966. Professor Wilson is widely considered one of the nation’s most influential sociologists.

SUMMARY:Regional-scale modeling in the Columbia River: From monitoring to climate change
DESCRIPTION:“Regional-scale modeling in the Columbia River: From monitoring to climate change”\n\nBart Nijssen\nCivil and Environmental Engineering\, University of Washington \nThe Columbia River\, located in the northwestern United States with headwaters in Canada\, is intensely managed for hydropower generation\, irrigation\, flood control\, ecosystem services (particularly salmonids)\, navigation\, and recreation. Effects of anthropogenic climate change already manifest themselves in the Pacific Northwest through reduced winter snow accumulation at lower elevations and earlier spring melt. As the climate warms\, the Columbia River\, whose flow regime is heavily dependent on seasonal snow melt\, is likely to experience significant changes in the timing of its seasonal hydrograph and possibly in total flow volume. This presentation will discuss regional-scale hydrologic modeling applications in the Columbia River Basin from near real-time monitoring of surface hydrologic conditions to climate change studies. \nBio: Bart Nijssen is an Research Associate Professor in Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Washington\, where he heads the Computational Hydrology group\, consisting of about 10 scientists and graduate students. The group builds tools to simulate and investigate the terrestrial hydrological cycle and uses these tools for a wide range of hydrologic research projects. We investigate the effects of climate change on the hydrologic cycle\, perform near real-time monitoring and forecasting studies for drought and streamflow\, simulate the interactions between the various components of the climate system in coupled regional climate models\, develop and analyze large datasets\, and along the way we write a lot of code that we are happy to share with others.
