SUMMARY:Moriarty Science Seminar: "Follow Your Nose: How birds use scent to find mates\, assess rivals\, and recognize relatives"
DESCRIPTION:R.W. Moriarty Science Seminar Presents: “Follow Your Nose: How birds use scent to find mates\, assess rivals\, and recognize relatives”\nSpeaker: Danielle Whittaker\, Oregon State University.  \nThis event will take place online Monday\, February 13 at Noon. \nAbstract: Smell has been called the most ancient sense\, and songbirds are no exception in their use of it. Behavioral\, genomic\, and neurobiological work has demonstrated that birds can use smell to navigate\, find food\, avoid predators\, and even communicate with each other. The primary source of odors in most birds is preen oil\, secreted by the uropygial gland and used by birds in grooming and maintaining their feathers. The compounds that make up these odors provide important information about a bird’s identity\, health\, breeding status\, aggressiveness\, and more. Interestingly\, these compounds appear to be produced by symbiotic microbes that inhabit the uropygial gland. In this talk\, Dr. Whittaker will share over a decade of her research on dark-eyed juncos (Junco hyemalis)\, a widespread North American sparrow\, investigating how these odors are produced\, what they communicate\, and how they relate to behavior.  \n. \nRegister Now

SUMMARY:Science and Nature Lecture: Bluebird
DESCRIPTION:Not very long ago\, Eastern Bluebird populations were in decline. Thanks to many dedicated lovers of nature\, they are doing much better. Can this improvement be sustained? Join us and explore the bluebird’s history in Pennsylvania\, their uncertain future\, and what you can do to help. Following the lecture\, participants will have the opportunity to pick up a bluebird house kit to take home. Supplies may be limited\, and distribution will be first come\, first serve. \nJoin us as we explore seasonal natural history phenomena of Powdermill Nature Reserve! A lecture will be given in the Parker Room at 2 pm. Lectures are structured for adult audiences\, and children under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult. Events fill up fast! Registration is recommended to guarantee your spot and help us plan timing\, seating\, and/or trail routes. If there are spots available at the time of the program\, non-registered individuals can join on a first-come\, first-served basis. Program participants and visitors are expected to adhere to the public health guidance and Carnegie Museums of Pittsburgh procedures in place at the time of their visit. \n[swcheckout site=”6″ item=”119123″]

SUMMARY:Educator Workshop: Seasonal Cycles
DESCRIPTION:Help develop new learning tools that promote youth engagement in science and explore the Youth Equity + STEM framework. Team up with scientists and educators from Carnegie Museum of Natural History to test innovative resources that will help your students recognize and analyze patterns and cycles in nature. We’ll learn about efforts of museum scientists and other professionals to use observational data (like the timing of flowering and leaf out in wildflowers) to provide insights on the effects of climate change. This workshop will introduce physical tools that can be borrowed from the museum for classroom use and will explore inventive ways for learners to demonstrate their developing expertise.  \nThis workshop welcomes educators from all subject areas and grade levels. \nIf more than 50% of your students qualify for free or reduced-price school lunch\, your school or organization will be eligible for a scholarship towards a museum field trip after the workshop. \nFunding is available to reimburse your school or district for substitute teacher costs on the day that you attend this workshop.\n \n\n[swaddtocart site=”6″ item=”118340″]

SUMMARY:Moriarty Science Seminar: "Using the Past to Predict the Future: What Museum Specimens Can Tell Us About Ecological Responses to Anthropogenic Change"
DESCRIPTION:R.W. Moriarty Science Seminar Presents: “Using the Past to Predict the Future: What Museum Specimens Can Tell Us About Ecological Responses to Anthropogenic Change“\nSpeaker: Jennifer Sheridan\, Carnegie Museum of Natural History.  \nThis event will take place Monday\, February 27 at Noon both online and at Earth Theater. \nAbstract: Animal body size dictates a host of life history features\, including survival\, competitive success\, and reproductive output. As such\, it can serve as a proxy for how these variables have changed over time\, in response to factors such as climate and land use. Despite numerous examples of size declines related to increasing temperatures\, patterns of size change are not universal\, suggesting that one or more primary mechanisms impacting size change are unknown. In this talk\, Dr. Sheridan will discuss the theoretical basis for how body size is expected to change under future climate warming\, and share recent evidence for a crossover effect between temperature and precipitation. This recent work suggests a shift from amphibian size being driven by resource availability at cooler temperatures to desiccation resistance at warmer temperatures. Sheridan will also share current related research in the section\, including work which incorporates land use change into body size models. \n. \nRegister Now
