SUMMARY:Transdisciplinary Energy Research Opportunities:  What’s Coming Down the Pike and How to Influence Them Going Forward?
DESCRIPTION:RCEI is pleased to announce a virtual briefing for RCEI affiliates on federal funding sources for renewable energy\, energy technology\, and energy conservation\, which will be held June 17th at 1pm.  This briefing will provide valuable insights into opportunities from agencies such as the DOE\, NSF\, and others\, and how our affiliates can engage in these efforts. \nProfessor Dunbar Birnie\, the RCEI Area Lead in this space recently participated in a SETO (Solar Energy Technologies Office) program review related to a Rutgers agrivoltaics grant. He has agreed to share his insights from this meeting\, which will complement the main briefing from Lewis-Burke Associates\, alongside a Q&A portion. \nKey topics to be covered include: \n\nCross-Disciplinary Projects: Upcoming funding opportunities for faculty from various disciplines\, including from outside engineering and natural sciences.\nRFI/FOA Participation: Encouraging faculty to engage in the RFI/FOA processes to identify gaps and needs recognized by funders\, leading to new opportunities. The time investment is minimal but can yield significant long-term rewards.\n\nYou must register to attend here.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Down to Earth Soil Management with Bill Errickson\, Rutgers University
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Bill Errickson\, Rutgers University  \nAbstract: For the earth element\, we will look at soil health and how it is defined as the continued capacity to function as a vital living ecosystem that sustains plants\, animals\, and humans. Maintaining soil health is an essential component of a productive and thriving garden that is more resistant to disease and abiotic stress. This presentation will highlight the important ecological roles of soil organisms as they relate to the physical and chemical properties of soil in home-scale and community gardens. Topics will include proper methods of soil testing\, optimizing soil fertility\, and practices to support soil organism biodiversity through increasing soil organic matter.  \nMore information here.

SUMMARY:Climate and the Bioeconomy Convergence Café
DESCRIPTION:The bioeconomy harnesses the power of biology in novel production of goods\, services\, and energy to grow the economy and workforce while improving quality of life and the environment. Key to the bioeconomy concept is reducing dependence on fossil fuels while preventing biodiversity loss\, reducing risks to people\, and ensuring economic growth follows ethical\, responsible\, and sustainable principles. \nRCEI aims to direct Rutgers scholarship toward the emerging global emphasis on the role of the bioeconomy in addressing climate change. This Convergence Café looks to mobilize interdisciplinary teams to access federal investments and support in research that intersects with the bioeconomy. \nThis event is for you if you are: \n\n\n 	Looking for funding sources for your research interests around this theme.\n 	Searching for a collaborator to team with for research funding.\n 	Want to increase your chances of success within highly competitive programs.\n 	In need of planning funds to get your project off the ground.\n\nRCEI’s Climate and the Bioeconomy Convergence Café event is for RCEI affiliate scholars and other full-time Rutgers faculty and staff (or a representative from their lab) to develop connections as well as learn about upcoming funding opportunities to address challenges around this theme. \nFor more information about the nexus between Climate and the Bioeconomy\, see the Federal Funding Landscape highlighting programs across the Federal government anticipated to be competed this Fall. \nThe NSF Regional Innovation Engines Competition also focuses on several key areas of technology outlined in CHIPS and Science – including biotechnology; additional information about this call is available here.

SUMMARY:Webinar: The Influence of Personal Experiences on Perceptions of Black Bears in New Jersey
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Joseph Paulin\, Rutgers University.  \nAbstract: For the wildlife element we will explore how over the past 30 years\, people have more regularly interacted with black bears in New Jersey. These experiences can be both positive and undesirable. Although it can be exciting to see a bear from afar while hiking\, bears have also been known to frequent residential neighborhoods\, rummage through garbage\, and cause agricultural damage that negatively impacts farmers’ livelihoods. In this talk\, we will discuss research that explores how direct personal experiences with bears can influence public tolerance and support for management.  \nMore information here. Register here.

SUMMARY:Afropolitan Insecurities: Kairological Time and Urban Geographies
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Brittany Meché\, Williams College  \nAbstract: Through a theorization of kairological time\, that is an attention to notions of prophecy\, propitiousness\, and ordained moments of change\, this talk contemplates the urban geographies of two Sahelian capitals: Dakar\, Senegal and Ouagadougou\, Burkina Faso. Drawing on ethnographic vignettes\, I examine how my informants navigate these sites through forms of watchfulness\, anticipation\, waiting\, and projection\, the ways they re- imagine the cities through prisms of impending disaster. I ask: how do these projections of Sahelian cities contrast with other urban imaginaries? How do these cities exist simultaneously as paragons of Afropolitan aesthetic valorization and also loci of danger? The talk considers forms of anticipation and predictions that frame Sahelian capitals as especially vulnerable to the impacts of climate change and armed conflict. I grapple with the making of these cities as sites of tourism through an Afropolitan sensibility marketed to both foreigners and African and Afro-diasporic communities.  \nMore information here.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Hooked on Environmental DNA: Reeling in Community Scientists for Fisheries Monitoring of Offshore Wind Development
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Jason Adolf & Erin Conlon\, Monmouth University  \nAbstract: For the water element\, we will dive into the ocean realm as offshore wind development continues off the New Jersey coast\, many are concerned about potential impacts on the marine ecosystem. Environmental DNA (eDNA) provides a non-extractive method of monitoring fish community composition that can be done by community scientists and professionals alike. We will describe a fisheries monitoring program run by Monmouth University and funded by the NJ Research and Monitoring Initiative (RMI) that includes a role for community scientists. Community science is important as it fosters open communication and increased understanding for both stakeholders and researchers. Other partners in this project include Emma Najarian\, Keith J. Dunton\, Sam Chew Chin and Shannon O’Leary.  \nMore information here. Register here.

SUMMARY:Webinar: 15-Minute Neighborhoods: A Pathway to Creating Healthier\, More Just\, Resilient & Sustainable Communities in New Jersey
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Jon Carnegie\, Alan M. Voorhees Transportation Center at Rutgers University  \nAbstract: The 15-minute neighborhood concept gained visibility as the global pandemic demonstrated that local access to basic life needs is critically important. In addition to being an important contribution to New Jersey’s efforts to achieve its goals of reducing pollution that causes climate change\, 15-minute neighborhoods provide residents with easy access to parks\, schools\, gathering places\, social services\, places to buy healthy fresh food\, and\, in some cases\, public transit\, within a comfortable walk or bike ride. \nNear-term\, multi-billion-dollar investments in infrastructure\, a revolution in transportation technologies not seen in a century\, the recalibration of relationships between people and places brought about by the pandemic\, and converging policies related to energy\, health\, climate\, transportation\, and environmental justice provide New Jersey with an unprecedented opportunity to rethink and adjust how we design and build communities. \nJoin Jon Carnegie\, Executive Director of the Alan M. Voorhees Transportation Center at Rutgers University\, for a summary of a two-year study designed to investigate how a comprehensive\, multi-goal planning and policy framework can be used to achieve carbon-neutral transportation choices that simultaneously support healthy\, just\, and resilient communities for all New Jersey residents.  \nMore information here.
