Title: The ecology of plant-microbe interactions in a changing world
Title: TBD
Title: Plant Microbiomes: Key Players in Nutrient and Carbon Cycling within Coastal Marine Ecosystems
Professor Sam Bentley, Sam Bentley, Professor and Harrison Chair, LSU Department of Geology and Geophysics, and LSU Coastal Studies Institute Title: 21st Century Look at Mass Transport on the Subaqueous Delta of the Mississippi River: OASIS Partnership Preliminary Observations Abstract: Since the 1950’s researchers have understood that mass-wasting processes shape the subaqueous delta of the Mississippi River, offshore of the iconic Mississippi…
Title: Climate change in the classroom  
Title: Clear as mud: Molecular insights to landscape patterns of soil carbon in coastal wetlands Abstract: Coastal wetlands support many valuable ecosystem services, including rapid and efficient soil carbon burial. Understanding the processes controlling soil carbon preservation (or loss) is therefore important for ascertaining the role of coastal wetlands in a changing carbon cycle, identifying high-functioning systems for conservation, and…
Title:  Blue Carbon Policy and Science: Perspectives from an Objective Policy Analyst Abstract: Katie Hill, an attorney working at UGA’s Carl Vinson Institute of Government, will discuss how  scientific research informs policy development from the perspective of a policy analyst working at an objective academic institute. She will use her recent work in blue carbon policy analysis to frame this discussion. Time: Monday, 3:30 pm to 4:20…
Title: The Interplay between Coastal Protection and Biodiversity    Abstract: Nearly a third of the global population (and 40% of Americans) live on the coast. These coastal communities rely on infrastructure, both natural and artificial, to protect them from a variety of environmental hazards. The choice of infrastructure can have a significant impact on biodiversity and local ecosystems. These impacts can then, in turn, affect the…
ON INTEGRATIVE STATISTICAL LEARNING APPROACH FOR CANCER GENOMICS AND MICROBIAL SCIENCE Abstract The modeling of interrelated responses utilizing correlated predictors within high-dimensional contexts emerges as a compelling conundrum in the realm of integrative statistical learning, resonating across diverse scientific inquiries. This dilemma is manifest in scenarios such as genomics, where insights into the modulation of gene expression in…
Successful Water Quality Monitoring with Satellite Remote Sensing By Dr. Bridget Seegers NASA Goddard Space Flight Center bridget.n.seegers@nasa.gov Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs) are a water quality issue that negatively impact ecosystem and human health and have wide reaching recreational and economic consequences. The Cyanobacteria Assessment Network (CyAN) project is an interagency (US-EPA, NASA, NOAA, USGS) effort that uses satellite remote…
