SUMMARY:SFWS Seminar Series - Beatriz Vega
DESCRIPTION:The Auburn University School of Forestry and Wildlife Sciences Seminar Series continues with Dr. Beatriz Vega\, Research Fellow in the Auburn University Forest Products Development Center. Dr. Vega will present a talk titled\, “Formaldehyde paper-based device (PAD) for a cost-efficient detection of formaldehyde emissions from wood panels\,” on Tuesday\, April 6\, from 3:30 to 4:30 pm. Join the seminar via Zoom at https://auburn.zoom.us/j/9398596544. \nShort Bio of Beatriz Vega \nBeatriz Vega is a Research Fellow in the Forest Products Development Center in the School of Forestry and Wildlife Sciences at Auburn University. She has earned her Ph.D. degree from the Chemical Engineering Department in Åbo Akademi University in Turku\, Finland\, and her Master’s Degree from the Organic Chemistry Department in the Faculty of Chemistry\, Universidad de la República (UdelaR) in Montevideo\, Uruguay. The research work during her doctoral studies was mainly focused on fiber engineering using polysaccharide derivatives\, biomass fractionation\, and material characterization using traditional and advanced techniques. The research carried out for her degree from the Organic Chemistry Department in Uruguay focused on biotransformation of the main component in eucalyptus oil using fungi cells under resting cell conditions. As a Research Fellow\, Beatriz Vega is trying to contribute to Dr. Via’s group in SFWS with her biomass conversion\, biomass characterization\, and chemistry background. \n Abstract \nFormaldehyde paper-based device (PAD) for a cost-efficient detection of formaldehyde emissions from wood panels Alfredo García\, Lorena Portilla\, Beatriz Vega*\, and Brian Via. Forest Products Development Center\, School of Forestry and Wildlife Sciences\, Auburn University\, Auburn AL 36849. The rapid advances in technology and the emerging analytical tools are providing new opportunities for the valorisation of under-utilized biomass and creating the best scenario for the development of innovative solutions. At the same time\, these momentous changes are shaping the nature of jobs available\, setting unprecedented challenges for the traditional production sectors. The forest products sector is not an exception and is trying to update their production patterns rapidly and address the changes. It is foreseen that the most important changes in the forest processing sector will occur in the construction sector and that the demand for engineering wood products such as pre-cut lumber\, and wood panels construction. Just in 2017\, the structural panel consumption and housing starts in the US were 20 million m3 and 1.6 million m3 \, respectively\, and have increased over the past years\, with average industry growth of 4.3% in the period 2014-2019\, a market size of $28 billion and industry employment of over 86000\, according to IBIS World industry research report. The engineered wood manufacturers follow strict protocols and regulations to ensure the optimum performance and certify the safety of their products\, either during fabrication or during the long service life of their products\, the manufacturers. In particular\, low formaldehyde emissions are recommended by different agencies such as the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)\, California Air Resources Board (CARB)\, the European Union\, Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED)\, ASTM D6007-14 and ASTM E1333-14. During this presentation\, our research related to a Formaldehyde paper-based device (PAD) for a costefficient detection of formaldehyde emissions from wood panels will be presented. Keywords: forest products\, engineered wood\, paper-based devices (PAD)\, formaldehyde emissions\, formaldehyde detection *ibv0002@auburn.edu

SUMMARY:Ph.D. Seminar:  Diego Gomez Maldonado
DESCRIPTION:Ph.D. Seminar: Diego Gomez Maldonado\, Maj. Prof\, Dr. Maria Soledad Peresin \nTitle: Development of bio-based systems as pollutants removal for water remediation \nLocation: Dixon Executive Conference Room\, 3315 \nDate: Wednesday\, March 31\, 2021 \nTime: 8 a.m. \nAbstract: \nCellulose nanofibril were used as scaffolds for the development of adsorbents for pollutants; in particular\, the cyanotoxin microcystin-LR. The adsorbents were modified to capture the toxin with the inclusion of β-cyclodextrin. The first approach tested was the direct adsorption onto the surface of the fibrils and evaluated on thin films by Quartz Crystal Microbalance with Dissipation monitoring and in bulk by the generation aerogels from the modified fibrils which adsorption was followed by High-Pressure Liquid Chromatography. The adsorption occurred in both levels\, with better results in surface level; interestingly the adsorption was limited by the density of crosslinking of the cyclodextrin and the salinity of the media carrying the microcystin. \nThe second approach was the generation of an active coating with oriented β-cyclodextrin immobilized on chitosan. The coating of nanocellulose fibers was done by the passive method of immersion of the material to coat into a solution with a strong ion presence. Moreover\, the adsorption of the cyanotoxin was achieved on thin films as followed on the Quartz Crystal Microbalance. The coating was also tested on 3D structures generated by both typical approaches for nanostructured materials: nanocellulose beads from a bottom-up technique and delignified wood (nanowood) from a top-down. On the tested systems the successful coating was confirmed by different spectroscopic and chromatographic techniques. Furthermore\, the adsorption of the toxin was successful only on the coated materials\, demonstrating that the coating not only modified the surface area but also added the aimed activity to remove pollutants such as microcystin-LR.

SUMMARY:M.S. Seminar:  Hannah Leeper
DESCRIPTION:M.S. Seminar: Hannah Leeper\, Maj. Prof\, Dr. Todd Steury \nTitle: Resource selection at different spatial scales by Black Bears in Alabama \nLocation: https://auburn.zoom.us/j/86262870465 \nDate: Friday\, March 26\, 2021 \nTime: 2 p.m. \nAbstract: \nBlack bears are native throughout Alabama; however\, historic populations have diminished\, in part from decreased connectivity and habitat degradation. At present\, only two small populations of black bears occur in Alabama. One population is growing quickly in number\, while the other is genetically isolated from other black bear populations in the southeastern U.S. Neither population exhibits the spatial growth patterns characteristic of what small populations could achieve. The observed limited spatial growth and genetic isolation could be explained by a lack of corridors\, resulting in decreased connectivity\, or limited population expansion could be caused by human development and a lack of suitable habitat. Therefore\, we created first- and second-order habitat selection models using a Geographic Information System (GIS) for black bears in Alabama in order to understand resource selection at these two spatial scales. The objective of the first-order selection model was to identify potential spatial barriers and areas of population connectivity in Alabama. Models indicated that a lack of available corridors in south Alabama may be limiting gene flow with black bear populations in Florida. Conversely\, potential corridors in north Alabama may be facilitating population connectivity and expansion. The objectives of the second-order selection model were to understand how black bears use human dominated landscapes in Alabama and to understand more about the potential for population range expansion despite widespread human presence. We found that much of Alabama has a relatively low potential for population expansion; however\, there are areas that could provide opportunities for population growth\, allowing bear populations to approach their historic distribution. Understanding potential spatial barriers and population expansion in Alabama could help to inform wildlife managers who are seeking to enhance bear populations and prepare for potential bear population growth in the state and elsewhere in the U.S.

SUMMARY:SFWS Seminar Series - Dr. John Willis
DESCRIPTION:Dr. John Willis\nUSFS – Southern Research Station\n  \n“Persistent Legacy Effects of Forest Management Create Complex Challenges for Restoration”\n  \nAbstract:\nCoarse structural targets have historically been used to guide forest restoration. Oftentimes these targets are gleaned from studies conducted in stands where forest management has largely been absent or completely excluded. As such\, the recommendations guiding many contemporary restoration efforts are not accounting for functional changes that have occurred following decades of forest management.  Consequently\, efforts to restore forest ecosystems may not achieve the desired response. This seminar provides several examples of how legacy effects of forest management are impacting efforts to restore degraded stands in a variety of ecosystems. \nSpeaker Bio:\nJohn Willis graduated with a PhD in Forestry and Evolutionary Ecology from Michigan State University. John previously worked as an Assistant Professor of Silviculture and Forest Ecology at Mississippi State University for four years. Currently\, John works as a Research Forester with the United States Forest Service in Auburn\, Alabama. \n  \n\nFaculty\, students\, and the public are invited to attend this free program.\nComplimentary refreshments will be served.\nCFEs are available by request.\nAdvanced registration is not required.\nParking is available on the 3rd and 4th floors of the South Quad parking deck on Duncan Drive\, directly across from the SFWS Building.

SUMMARY:SFWS Seminar Series - Dr. Hamid Moradkhani
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Hamid Moradkhani\nCenter for Complex Hydrosystems Research\, University of Alabama\n  \n“From Drought Monitoring to Forecasting\, Recovery\, Vulnerability\, Risk and Mortality Under Changing Climate: An International Experience”\n\n  \nAbstract:\nDrought is a creeping interwoven natural hazard affecting more people than any other natural disaster causing massive damages on economy and ecosystems. Therefore\, better understanding of potential drought hazard can lead us to make preparation plans to mitigate the adverse impacts of droughts. This presentation is multifaceted; first\, we discuss our recently developed probabilistic drought monitoring and forecasting system that leverages dynamical and statistical modeling benefiting from satellite remote sensing\, Bayesian analysis and high-performance computing. Then we elaborate on a multi-stage framework to detect hydrological droughts considering both water quantity and quality variables and discuss how the drought recovery can be estimated. Drought risk is then discussed which refers to the potential losses imposed by a drought event\, and it is generally characterized as a function of vulnerability\, hazard\, and exposure. We show how to assess drought risk at a national level by considering climate change\, population growth\, and socioeconomic vulnerabilities. Drought vulnerability is quantified using a rigorous multi-dimensional framework from six different sectors of economy\, energy and infrastructure\, health\, land use\, society\, and water resources. Results indicate that controlling the population growth is imperative for mitigating drought risk since it improves socioeconomic vulnerability and reduces potential exposure to drought. Meanwhile\, climate change will considerably exacerbate drought and heat-stress hazards. Our findings show that global warming will escalate heat-stress mortality risk\, in particular across Central Africa to unprecedented levels. It is revealed that unfortunately\, the poorest countries (that have least contribution to climate change) are expected to be most impacted\, and they will experience markedly higher risk ratios compared to the wealthier nations. \nSpeaker Bio:\nDr. Moradkhani joined The University of Alabama in January 2018 as Alton N. Scott Endowed Chair in the department of civil\, construction and environmental engineering. Also\, he is the founding director of the Center for Complex Hydrosystems Research comprising faculties and students across civil and environmental engineering\, computer science\, geography\, mathematics\, geology and business school. Prior to this appointment\, he was a professor and director of Water Resources and Remote Sensing Lab in the department of civil and environmental engineering at Portland State University. Dr. Moradkhani is a pioneer and has introduced original and groundbreaking methods in few areas notably: data assimilation and ensemble inference; remote sensing and hydroclimate extremes (droughts and floods) which hold the promise for unprecedented advances in predictive modeling under changing environmental and climatic conditions. Dr. Moradkhani is the recipient of several awards including Faculty Research Excellence Award\, the Millar Award for the excellence in research\, teaching and profession service\, the selection to the hall of fame of school of engineering at the University of California\, Irvine and best technical paper award from the ASCE Journal of Hydrologic Engineering\, to name a few. He is the author of over 100 peer reviewed publications\, and has served on the editorial boards of several journals including Water Resources Research\, Journal of Hydrology\, Water\, Remote Sensing\, and Hydrologic Engineering.
