SUMMARY:Moriarty Science Seminar: Sailing Through Eternity: Caring for the Dahshur Funerary Boat
DESCRIPTION:R.W. Moriarty Science Seminar Presents: “Sailing Through Eternity: Caring for the Dahshur Funerary Boat“\nSpeakers: Gretchen Anderson and Dr. Lisa Haney\, Carnegie Museum of Natural History  \nThis event will take place Monday\, March 13 at Noon online via Zoom. \nAbstract: Four ancient Egyptian boats were excavated at Dahshur\, Egypt in the 1890s. The Carnegie Museum of Natural History cares for one of them. Two others remain in Egypt and the fourth is at the Field Museum in Chicago. The Dahshur boat has been a favorite exhibit since it was first displayed in 1907.  Have you ever wondered how the boat got to Pittsburgh? Or\, how to care for a 4\,000-year-old\, 30-foot long boat?  \nThis talk will unravel the boat’s fascinating history – how it came to be here\, how it was exhibited\, the conservation challenges\, and the current research that helps us to better understand both the boat and the culture that made it.  We will also discuss the importance of archival and technical research to long term care and understanding of this unique object.  This includes a brief look at how technical analysis has changed over time\, creating a need for collaboration between colleagues from different backgrounds and specialties.  \n. \nRegister Now

SUMMARY:Moriarty Science Seminar: Effects of Urbanization on Plant Phenology
DESCRIPTION:R.W. Moriarty Science Seminar Presents: “Effects of Urbanization on Plant Phenology“\n\nSpeaker: Daijiang Li\, Louisiana State University.  \nThis event will take place Monday\, March 27 at Noon online via Zoom. \nAbstract:With 57% of the human population now living in urban areas\, urbanization is one of the most important drivers of global environmental change. Urbanization and its associated environmental consequences such as habitat fragmentation\, urban heat island effects\, pollution\, and altered biogeochemical and hydrologic cycling are affecting all living individuals in urban areas\, forming novel ecosystems. However\, we know little about how and why urbanization affects species\, limiting our ability to have better urban planning and management. Plant phenology – the timing of plant life-cycle events\, such as leaf-out and flowering – can serve as a “canary in the coal mine” for impending system shifts because phenology shifts are often the most immediate and visible ecological response to environmental change. In this seminar\, Dr. Daijiang Li will talk about the effects of urbanization on plant phenology across the United States and most of the Europe using both in situ observatory and remote sensing data. Dr. Li will also briefly talk about a current project to build a global plant phenology database — phenobase. \n. \nRegister Now

SUMMARY:Educator Workshop: City Nature Challenge
DESCRIPTION:Help your students contribute their experience and expertise to a global community science project! This workshop will explore the surprising biodiversity of habitats like sidewalk cracks\, suburban parking lots\, and the diverse array of green spaces that cross our landscape in and around the city. Learn techniques for recording and analyzing nature observations. Use the iNaturalist app to contribute data to crowdsourced science efforts\, and also sketch with pencil and paper. This workshop will explore the Youth Equity + STEM framework as we introduce classroom activities to help your students join in a global effort to collect observations for science in the City Nature Challenge. \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=”118341″]
