SUMMARY:Moriarty Science Seminar: River Life in Ancient Egypt: The Nile and its Varied Environments
DESCRIPTION:R.W. Moriarty Science Seminar Presents: “River Life in Ancient Egypt: The Nile and its Varied Environments”\nSpeaker: Christine Johnston\, Western Washington University. \nAncient Egyptian society developed around and was dependent on the Nile River. It was the physical and cultural heart of the pharaonic state\, playing important roles in transportation and trade\, agriculture and subsistence\, and belief and ideology. The Nile brought bounty to the people of Egypt through both the resources it held and the rich sediments it deposited across the Nile valley during the annual inundation. These sediments supported the production of agricultural products like grain\, while the river environment provided fish and fowl and supported the raising of livestock and the cultivation of plants like flax and papyrus used to make linen and paper. Although the Nile represented an important source of life\, it could also be dangerous. It was home to creatures like hippopotami and crocodiles and helped to spread water- and insect-borne parasites and illnesses like malaria. Fluctuations in the annual inundation could also have devastating effects on agriculture\, while the migration of the river across the valley altered physical and cultural landscapes. This presentation will focus on the regional differences through the Egyptian Nile Valley\, the changes that occurred over time\, and the impact of the river on the lives and beliefs of the ancient Egyptians. \nThis free event will take place ONLINE via Zoom on Monday\, March 11\, 2024 at Noon. \nRegister Now \nClick to download the printable program. \nSeminar 167 \n.

SUMMARY:Moriarty Science Seminar: Minerals as the Bedrock of the Energy Transition
DESCRIPTION:R.W. Moriarty Science Seminar Presents: “Minerals as the Bedrock of the Energy Transition”\n\nSpeaker: Barbara Dutrow\, Louisiana State University.  \nMinerals\, the fundamental solid material comprising planet Earth\, are critical to solving some of society’s most pressing challenges\, including global warming and the climate crises. Minerals provide the essential chemical constituents needed for the lower carbon energy transition and are a key for technological advances. Their myriad crystal structures inform new technologies that capture the mineral’s unique properties to provide solutions to\, and advance development of\, new materials. Other minerals act to sequester carbon dioxide from the atmosphere\, lowering dangerous greenhouse gases.  \nThis presentation focuses on three aspects of minerals centrality to the lower carbon energy transition: their ability to act as sinks for carbon dioxide; their unprecedented need as suppliers for chemical elements critical to a vast number of current and future technologies; and their use as templates for advanced functional materials that are more energy efficient. Central to these themes is the role that minerals play as a part of the solution to these crises. \nThis event will take place Monday\, February 26\, 2024 at Noon in person at Earth Theater. \nSeminar 166 \n.

SUMMARY:Moriarty Science Seminar: Glow-in-the-Dark Millipedes\, Mimicry Rings\, and the 1\,306-Legged Millipede
DESCRIPTION:R.W. Moriarty Science Seminar Presents: “Glow-in-the-Dark Millipedes\, Mimicry Rings\, and the 1\,306-Legged Millipede”\n\nSpeaker: Paul Marek\, Virginia Tech.  \nA myriapod is a many-legged arthropod in the subphylum Myriapoda. They include centipedes\, millipedes\, and the poorly known symphylans and pauropods. They are an ancient group\, and\nthe first evidence of land animals are late Silurian fossil millipedes from 425 million years ago. Among the notable species of myriapods are those that glow in the dark\, are walking gardens of mosses and liverworts\, and some that roll up into a baseball-sized sphere for defense against predators. Dr. Marek will present highlights of his laboratory’s research on myriapods\, which includes studies of bioluminescent millipedes and the animal with the greatest number of legs—a millipede discovered in Australia with 1306 legs. Details will include collaborative projects with graduate students in the lab and colleagues across the world. He hopes to show the significance of myriapods\, and the importance of international collaboration and open science. \nThis event will take place Monday\, January 22\, 2024 at Noon in person at Earth Theater. \nSeminar 164 \n.

SUMMARY:Moriarty Science Seminar: A time-machine to Africa: revisiting the collections of the Pulitzer Expedition to Angola at the Carnegie Museum of Natural History
DESCRIPTION:R.W. Moriarty Science Seminar Presents: “A Time-Machine to Africa: Revisiting the Collections of the Pulitzer Expedition to Angola at the Carnegie Museum of Natural History”\n\nSpeaker: Luis Ceríaco\, Carnegie Museum of Natural History.  \nIn 1930\, the newspaper mogul Ralph Pulitzer funded an expedition to Angola\, southwestern Africa\, for the Carnegie Museum of Natural History. Aimed at getting specimens of the iconic Giant Sable\, the expedition was comprised of naturalists who assembled impressive zoological\, paleontological and ethnographic collections. These collections are still extant in CMNH and are scientifically relevant to the present day. They served as the basis of the description of new species and are unparalleled testimonies of the Angolan landscape a century ago. While reviewing part of the collections assembled in this expedition\, I started to pull a thread that eventually led me to (re)discover a treasure trove of documentation and specimens. In the last 10 years I’ve been doing research in Angola and collecting in the exact same areas covered by the Pulitzer Expedition. This allows us to compare the landscape evolution\, the loss of biodiversity and the logistics of an early twentieth century expedition with those of today. This story intertwines history and biodiversity and reinforces the value and scientific importance of CMNH collections. Using the CMNH collections as a time-machine\, we will travel back and forth in time and discuss history\, science and conservation in one of Africa’s most biodiverse countries. \nThis event will take place Monday\, December 11\, 2023 at Noon in person at Earth Theater. \nSeminar 163 \n.

SUMMARY:Moriarty Science Seminar: Impacts of Extreme Warming Events on Early Eocene Mammals and Ecosystems
DESCRIPTION:R.W. Moriarty Science Seminar Presents: “Impacts of Extreme Warming Events on Early Eocene Mammals and Ecosystems”\n\nSpeaker: Abigail Carroll\, University of Pittsburgh. \nHow might animals and ecosystems respond to today’s warming planet? Looking to Earth’s past may help us answer this question. A series of extreme warming events during the early Eocene (beginning 56 million years ago) are analogous in many ways to present-day global warming. Paleontological investigations conducted over the past decade have also uncovered a curious response to these warming events: a brief\, but significant\, decrease in body size for some mammal groups\, including the earliest horses. Furthermore\, the extent of body size decrease appears to be related to the magnitude of the warming event. In this talk\, we will look at a fossil record of these events from the Bighorn Basin of Wyoming\, and consider the mechanism(s) which may have led to the observed body size changes.  \nThis event will take place Monday\, November 13\, 2023 at Noon in person at Earth Theater and is free to attend. \nClick here to download the program. \nSeminar 162 \n.

SUMMARY:Moriarty Science Seminar: Awareness of the Natural World Through the Lens of Amphibian and Reptile Ecology at Powdermill Nature Reserve
DESCRIPTION:R.W. Moriarty Science Seminar Presents: “Awareness of the Natural World Through the Lens of Amphibian and Reptile Ecology at Powdermill Nature Reserve”\nSpeaker: Dr. Walter E. Meshaka\, State Museum of Pennsylvania.  \nCuriosity brings awareness\, and\, awareness\, in turn\, makes caring possible. A protected resource\, Powdermill Nature Reserve\, in the northern Allegheny Mountains of Pennsylvania\, provides an uncommon opportunity to understand the natural world in short-term and uninterrupted long-term research endeavors otherwise not possible. Presciently\, Dr. M. Graham Netting understood the importance of such a place when he undertook the acquisition of the station in 1956. A beneficiary of this vision\, Dr. Walter E. Meshaka\, Jr. has\, with the kind support of Powdermill staff\, since 2002 undertaken research projects in the ecology of amphibians and reptiles at the station that have involved museum specimens and mark-recapture of individuals. Referring specifically to a few of the 16 published papers to date\, Dr. Meshaka hopes to convey how the combination of traits comprising the Powdermill Nature Reserve can provide and await our awareness of this part of our natural world\, its meaningfulness\, and the importance of its stewardship.    \nThis event will take place Monday\, October 30\, 2023 at Noon in person at Earth Theater. \nClick here to download the program. \nSeminar 161 \n.

SUMMARY:Moriarty Science Seminar: Let’s Talk About Climate Change! Outcomes of Climate in Rural Systems Partnership (CRSP)
DESCRIPTION:R.W. Moriarty Science Seminar Presents: “Let’s Talk About Climate Change! Outcomes of Climate in Rural Systems Partnership (CRSP)”\n\nSpeaker: Nicole Heller and Laurie Giarratani\, Carnegie Museum of Natural History.  \nThe Climate and Rural Systems Partnership (CRSP) operates at the intersection of three ideas: 1) museum resources are valuable for understanding environmental change\, 2) museums are underserving rural audiences\, and 3) complex socio-scientific environmental change topics are deeply connected to social decision making in rural communities. Over the last four years\, educators and researchers from Carnegie Museum of Natural History (CMNH) and the University of Pittsburgh have collaborated with community partners in a research practice partnership (RPP) that supports professional networking\, reflection and learning.  The project is centered at two community hubs – one at Powdermill Nature Reserve and the other at Mercer County Conservation District. Our collective work supports socially safe\, science-based discussions about human-caused climate change and is building regional capacity for information exchange across organizations. Through this partnership we seek to improve methodologies and practices for practitioners to effectively address climate change issues with their audiences\, including the museum’s work with its audiences. In this talk\, we will share background theory and practice that motivated this learning science project\, describe how the RPP works\, and discuss some of our findings. We will also talk about how this research is informing our vision for the long-term role of the museum in regional climate empowerment.  \nThis event will take place Monday\, October 23\,2023 at Noon in person in the CMP Board Room and online via Zoom. \nTalks are free to attend in person. Registration is required for online access. \nRegister Now \nClick here to download the program. \nSeminar 160 \n.

SUMMARY:Moriarty Science Seminar: Academia and Indigenous Communities: Opening the Doors to Collaborative Research and Community-Driven Projects
DESCRIPTION:R.W. Moriarty Science Seminar Presents: “Academia and Indigenous Communities: Opening the Doors to Collaborative Research and Community-Driven Projects”\n\nSpeaker: Jessie Ryker-Crawford\, Institute of American Indian Arts.  \nAn honest assessment of research practices and methodologies often leads to new and innovative strategies that address inclusion and accessibility between researchers and host communities. Collaborative research projects\, in particular\, allow for a point of entry for ongoing foundational building and networking between institutions and host community organizations—resulting in the long-lasting relationships that are so key to deep research.  \nThis presentation will explore how initial contacts can be made\, facilitating co-advisory groups that can formulate effective and meaningful research projects for all involved\, soliciting community engagement\, and the dissemination of research knowledge and material to a wider community audience.  \nStories of events – also known as case studies – will play heavily in the sharing of insights\, pitfalls\, time-to-stand-up-brush-it-off-and-continue instances\, and glorious successes. \nThis event will take place on Indigenous People’s Day\, Monday\, October 9\,2023 at Noon in person at Earth Theater. \nClick here to download the program. \nSeminar 159 \n.

SUMMARY:Moriarty Science Seminar: Our Changing Ohio River: Climate\, Water Quality\, and Harmful Algal Blooms
DESCRIPTION:R.W. Moriarty Science Seminar Presents: “Our Changing Ohio River:  Climate\, Water Quality\, and Harmful Algal Blooms”\n\nSpeaker: Emily Elliott\, University of Pittsburgh.  \nThe Ohio River basin is not only vast\, but its waterways are a vital economic\, ecological\, and recreational resource for the 15 states within basin boundaries.  Yet\, a half-century after the Clean Water Act\, major challenges remain to make the Ohio River fishable\, swimmable\, and drinkable. For example\, in 2015 and 2019 unprecedented blooms of the toxin-producing harmful algal bloom\, Microcystis aeruginosa\, extended along 600 and 300 miles of the mainstem Ohio River\, respectively. Given the unusual nature of these extensive blooms and the potential impacts to human and ecological health\, it is imperative to understand factors contributing to bloom formation. I will highlight ecological\, hydrological\, and climatic changes in the Ohio River over the past 40 years and explore how these factors may be interacting to fundamentally change the ecology and biogeochemistry of the Ohio River. Long-term trends in flow and two key nutrients that contribute to algal bloom proliferation (nitrogen\, phosphorous) are evaluated using a U.S. Geological Survey model called Weighted Regressions on Time\, Discharge\, and Season (WRTDS). Our model results are placed in the context of current river management strategies\, efforts to curb nutrient pollution\, and a basin-wide push for federal designation as a restoration target.   \nThis event will take place Monday\, September 25\,2023 at Noon in person at Earth Theater and online via Zoom. \nSeminar 158 \nClick here to join the webinar live on September 25 at 12:00 p.m. \nClick here to download the program.\n.
