SUMMARY:Air Pollution Links to the Sources and Sinks of Greenhouse Gases in New York City
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, November 10\, 2023. 2:30 PM. Air Pollution Links to the Sources and Sinks of Greenhouse Gases in New York City. Roisin Commane\, Columbia University. Sponsored by Rutgers Department of Environmental Sciences. More information here. \nAbstract: Many city governments in the US have committed to reducing their emissions of GHGs based on inventories calculated for the city. However\, few cities measure their carbon emissions to know if the enacted policies are having the desired effect. The New York Metro Area (pop. 20M) is the most populous urban area in the United States (US) and the largest urban source of CO2 in the US. The region also has some of the worst summertime air quality (NOx and ozone exceedances) outside of California\, much of which is transported downwind to Connecticut. We have observed concentrations of methane\, ethane\, CO\, CO2 and N2O over long periods at an observatory in Manhattan (starting in 2019) and at the Rutgers air quality site in New Brunswick since January 2023. We combine atmospheric transport models with our observations to evaluate various trace gas inventories for the city (for methane\, CO and CO2). To interpret the CO2 observations\, we built a model for biogenic CO2 photosynthesis and respiration for NYC that includes street and park trees and urban lawns and found that the large amounts of vegetation in the city absorbs much of the daytime CO2 emitted from traffic across the city. We also identified surprising N2O emissions from specific waste water treatment plants in the city. Our observations of many trace gases have allowed us to study the source characteristics of methane and understand the impact of co-emitted species on urban atmospheric chemistry. \nLocation: Webinar

SUMMARY:Understanding Weather Hazards Impacting the Eastern US through Analysis of Cyclone Tracks\, With a Focus on Storm Surge
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, November 3\, 2023. 2:30 PM. Understanding Weather Hazards Impacting the Eastern US through Analysis of Cyclone Tracks\, With a Focus on Storm Surge. James Booth\, City University of New York. Sponsored by Rutgers Department of Environmental Sciences. More information here.  \nAbstract: This talk will focus on hazards generated by hurricanes and extratropical cyclones along the US east coast. Overall\, the talk will cover the climatological statistics of the hazards and characteristics of the storms that cause the hazards. Specifically\, I will report on our analysis of historical storm surge observations\, comparing the behavior of hurricanes and extratropical cyclones that generated extreme surge events. I will go into detail on probabilities of storm surge generated by hurricanes\, and the skill\, or lack thereof\, in statistically modeling surge amplitude based on properties of the hurricanes that caused them. Then I will discuss long-duration storm surge events for the NYC region and the synoptic-scale atmospheric features that cause them. I will briefly discuss precipitation and high wind events for the northeast US – again focusing on the storms that generate the events. All of the statistical results utilize a cyclone track analysis approach to determine links between synoptic-scale organization of the storm and the traits of the hazards they produce. The results are then explained based on physical processes. Ultimately\, the work presented advances our understanding of hazards and is useful for hazard management offices and National Weather Service offices. After focusing on storms associated with specific hazards\, I will discuss a separate analysis on temporal clustering of cyclones. In this case\, the results explain the behavior of the cyclones involved in clustering events\, rather than hazards. \nLocation: Rutgers ENR building\, room 223

SUMMARY:The Future of the Other Amazon: Social - Ecological Adaptation and Literature
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Jorge Marcone\, Rutgers University.  \nAbstract: National imaginaries of the so-called Andean countries show a consistent preference for partial representations of the Amazon. This is true as well of images of Amazonia globally. Literary studies\, surprisingly\, are responsible for this incompleteness. Indigenous art\, nevertheless\, flourishes in interculturalism. And the archive of 20th-century non-indigenous Amazonian fiction proves to be a site of resilience to a history of social-ecological disturbances. Event flyer here. More information here.

SUMMARY:Carboxylation chemistry and biology: Adaptation of plants to extreme CO2 sources in Yellowstone NP
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, October 31\, 2023. 11:00 AM. Carboxylation chemistry and biology: Adaptation of plants to extreme CO2 sources in Yellowstone NP. Marie-Claire ten Veldhuis\, TU Delft. Sponsored by Rutgers Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology. More information here. \nAbstract: Carboxylation reactions are those which combine CO2 with something else to make a useful natural or a synthetic chemical product. They are vital to our ecosystems\, to agriculture\, the chemical industry\, and the health of our planet. The chemistry of carboxylation is a cornerstone reaction of life itself that has evolved over 3 billion years. After presenting a brief tutorial on biological carboxylation chemistry\, we will take you into the field to one of Nature’s laboratories of evolution to ask this question. Can plants adapt to 12x ambient CO2 levels found near travertine springs in Yellowstone? In principle\, high CO2 levels can improve the carboxylation efficiency of the RuBisCO enzyme by competing with photorespiration (displacement of O2) and by making more of the essential reductant and ATP. But only if the production steps in the photosynthetic light reactions can be tuned to match the dark carboxylation reactions will this strategy work. At higher levels\, CO2 is also a poison to plants if not consumed. Perfect harmony requires that you use it or lose it. What is the net outcome for plants in Yellowstone living on the edge\, survival or death? We will look at three important steps in photosynthetic electron transport to see how plants adapt to long-term exposure to extreme CO2 levels.  \nLocation: CCB Auditorium (Room 1303)

SUMMARY:Reforesting the Earth through Societal Corporatism: A Natural Climate Solution
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Tom Rudel\, Prof Emeritus\, Rutgers University \nAbstract:  \nThe contours of the collective action necessary to limit climate change remain difficult to discern. In this context\, corporatist political processes\, fueled by crisis narratives\, have shown some promise as political devices for facilitating natural climate solutions. Corporatist processes have\, historically\, brought together political competitors like employers and labor unions within an economic sector to negotiate compacts that have advanced a collective good during times of crisis. In response to the climate crisis\, affluent donor groups\, indigenous peoples\, and state officials have assembled corporatist-like coalitions to pursue natural climate solutions in the form of forest conservation and restoration. Three case studies illustrate this political dynamic\, its shortcomings\, and its accomplishments. \n \n

SUMMARY:Chronic Disease in the Context of the Environmental Exposome
DESCRIPTION:Event Format: In-person \nAbstract: Cancer and cardiovascular disease are influenced by the spatial context in which people live. Environmental and neighborhood socioeconomic exposures are etiologically relevant for many chronic diseases via multiple mechanistic pathways. In this talk\, Charlie will discuss her work on environmental exposure assessment for epidemiology\, including the use of Earth Observation technologies. Additionally\, she’ll discuss her recent work with Dr. Hari Iyer (Assistant Professor at Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey) to model hypothetical environmental interventions to reduce cancer outcome disparities. Finally\, she’ll propose the Exposome as a multi-level framework to integrate geospatial context (across the lifecourse) into investigations of mechanisms that drive cancer\, cardiovascular disease\, and other environmentally-susceptible chronic disease outcomes. \nSpeaker: Charlotte Roscoe\, Harvard T.H.

SUMMARY:Combined Land Use of Solar Energy and Agriculture (Agrivoltaics) for Socioeconomic and Environmental Co-Benefits
DESCRIPTION:Event Format: Hybrid \nAbstract: Co-locating solar photovoltaics with vegetation (Agrivoltaics) could provide a sustainable solution to meeting growing food and energy demands. We studied the co-location of solar energy with crops/biofuels\, grazing and/or pollinator-friendly native plants at multiple sites around the world\, and explored the environmental and socio-economic co-benefits. The compounding effect of photovoltaic arrays and vegetation may homogenize soil moisture distribution and provide greater soil temperature buffer against extreme temperatures. Agrivoltaics on agricultural areas with carbon debt can be an effective climate mitigation strategy along with revitalizing agricultural soils\, generating income streams from fallow land\, and providing pollinator habitats. However\, the benefits of vegetation cooling effects on electricity generation are rather site-specific and depend on the background climate and soil properties. Overall\, our findings provide foundational data for site preservation along with targeting site-specific co-benefits\, and for developing climate resilient and resource conserving agrivoltaic systems. \nSponsored by Rutgers Department of Environmental Sciences .
