First published in 1572 by Georg Braun (1541-1622) and Frans Hogenberg (1535-1590)\, Civitates was first intended as a companion to Ortelius’s Theatrum Orbis Terrarum. New editions of the city atlas continued to be printed through 1617. Hogenberg\, one of the most prolific engravers of the time\, was joined by many other engravers in creating the Civitates. Braun edited the work and provided the descriptions of the cities on the verso of each plate. This exhibit contains 18 works from the Civitates\, including many from the Clark Library’s holdings. Also included are reproductions of large panoramas Amsterdam\, London\, and St. Petersburg that reflect the evolution of city mapping through the 17th and 18th centuries.

The Dynamic Football laminated paper works explore compositions of action\, allowing the artist to exploit the properties of the medium. The pieces are constructed by gluing many layers of paper over wire armatures. When dry\, the sculptures are painted in an often splashy\, sketchy style. Wirtz’ silly animal works are what the artist is best known for\, and they take shape in his Goetzville\, Michigan studio.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Corridor\, Floor 2\n1500 E.

Her large paintings are emotive abstract portraits of specific bodies of water. The Oil on Water exhibition features Eubank’s oil on linen paintings of the Arctic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. She creates patterns within patterns\, representing vertical stacks of rhythms. The undulating forms\, such as water ripples\, oil slicks\, and refuse\, combined with the memories that water evokes\, makes her work eye-opening\, yet soothing and sensual. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Lobby\, Floor 1 \n1500 E.

She immigrated to the U.S. in 1994\, and for the next 22 years\, New York became her home. In 2016\, she moved to Michigan to pursue an MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art. She found the raw beauty of Detroit inspiring and kept her metalsmithing studio practice in the city. The copper and brass vessels in her Ваза series and other included works are a meditation on fluidity of memories: their ability to shift from reflection to re-invention over time. Each vessel potentially holds something within its boundaries\, whether tangible or not. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center North Lobby\, Floor 1\n1500 E.

This day-long conference will bring together leading researchers\, practitioners\, administrators\, faculty\, and students to focus on campus climate and mental health among young adult/college students of color.\n\nThe current dialogue on mental health among college students has become a nationwide priority. Students of color in particular are tasked with navigating unique circumstances that can negatively influence their mental health\, including racial/ethnic discrimination disparities in service utilization that can be exacerbated by discrimination experiences\, treatment related to immigration status\, and racialized sexual and gender marginalization. Yet\, there is a relative dearth of scholarship specifically focused on the roles and impacts of campus climates characterized by these types of experiences on the mental health and well-being of college students of color. Such gaps in knowledge inhibit our ability to fully provide high quality\, responsive\, and equitable and inclusive supports and services.\n\nThis national conference is a collaboration between The Steve Fund\, the National Center for Institutional Diversity (NCID) and the Office of Diversity\, Equity and Inclusion (ODEI) at the University of Michigan. The conference curriculum is informed by the longstanding work of The Steve Fund and the latest research and insights from scholars and practitioners across the country. Conference participants will explore national and campus socio-political contexts and take away best practices in order to foster spaces and places that promote emotional well-being for students of color. We hope you will join us as we work towards advancing research and informing practice to better support students of color across the country.\n\nWe welcome you to visit the conference website to learn more. If you have any questions\, please email Laura Sánchez-Parkinson at lasanche@umich.edu.\n\n#YGARR2019 #SteveFundUmich #ResilientMichigan UID:66398-16734178@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/66398 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Admissions,AEM Featured,conference,Diversity,Diversity Equity and Inclusion,Diversity Summit,first-generation,Inclusion,Leadership,Prospective Graduate Students,Prospective Undergraduate Students,Social,Social Impact,Social Justice,Student Affairs,Undergraduate Students,Well-being LOCATION:Michigan League CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20191018T152324 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20191024T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20191024T100000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:BME Seminar: Jason Papin\, Ph.D. DESCRIPTION:New experimental technologies to characterize microbes result in voluminous data on the genotype-phenotype relationship under diverse conditions.

Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/ UID:63992-16059384@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63992 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Africa,Archaeology,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190808T162032 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20191024T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20191024T180000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Other Crusoes\, Other Islands: Mapping a Complex Legacy DESCRIPTION:On the 300th anniversary of the publication of The Life and Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe\, of York\, Mariner\, this exhibit interrogates the troubled legacy of Daniel Defoe’s seminal English novel. It also explores how creators have pushed back against the colonialist\, hyper-masculine\, and racist ethos of the text by using the castaway narrative to explore self-sufficiency\, otherness\, and the role of gendered and racialized ideas in constructing the self.\n\nThis novel of shipwreck\, survival\, and rescue has become a cultural touchstone. Today\, many people who haven’t read the novel still feel familiar with key plot elements\, Robinson Crusoe\, and Friday. Yet\, there is less familiarity with how both the original text and many of the adaptations of Robinson Crusoe have fed into and reinforced narratives of imperialism and racism. Drawing on the Hubbard Collection of Imaginary Voyages - one of the world’s most comprehensive collections of editions\, translations\, adaptations\, and spin-offs of Robinson Crusoe - Other Crusoes\, Other Islands seeks to understand how readers and writers have engaged with the story since its initial publication in 1719.\n\nContent Advisory: Please be aware that some items in this exhibit feature racist imagery and potentially painful content. Although Robinson Crusoe is often treated as children’s literature and this exhibit includes children’s books and board games\, it is not an exhibit geared towards children and reflects the significant shifts over time in ideas about what is appropriate for children.

This is true for other items in popular culture like television\, movies\, and music.\n\nJoin the Library Diversity Counsel and the U-M Library DEIA team as we have a structured conversation around Robinson Crusoe and other forms of media that have popular or favorable legacies\, but contain problematic messages and content.\nFor more information and questions\, please contact Thomas Dickens\, Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion Program Manager at dickenst@umich.edu.

Buentello took the photos in 2014 while working for an intake agency.\n\n\"Focusing on images from the US media sources that exposed the violence of migrants’ dehumanization\, vulnerability\, fear\, loss\, and criminalization\, the paintings document the embodiment of state-authorized brutality and erasures of personhood.\" -Ruth Leonela Buentello\n\nThis project is funded by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

Although literary papyri represent a small fraction of surviving papyrus texts\, they nonetheless enable scholars both to improve their readings of known literary texts and to illuminate the rich diversity of ancient Greek literature\, the overwhelming majority of which has been lost to time.\n\nThe Greek literature that survives complete in the present day largely represents the texts that were the most popular in antiquity\, works like Homer’s Iliad and Euripides’ Medea. These texts were repeatedly copied throughout antiquity and the Middle Ages\, ensuring their continued transmission. Literary texts on papyri\, however\, provide a rare opportunity to glimpse fragments of ancient literature in their original form and to discover works that were read in antiquity but did not otherwise survive into the medieval and modern periods. This includes lesser-known works by such famous authors as Aristophanes and the Greek tragedians\, as well as fragments of texts whose authors remain unknown.\n\nThe exhibit was curated by Allison Thorsen\, UMSI student\, and can be viewed during regular hours of the Special Collections Research Center:\nhttps://www.lib.umich.edu/special-collections-research-center UID:66701-16770242@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/66701 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Anthropology,Free,History,Library LOCATION:Hatcher Graduate Library - Special Collections Research Center, 6th Floor CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190920T130853 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20191024T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20191024T163000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Nature a Moment: Visions of the World from Three Korean-American Artists DESCRIPTION:Three Chicago-area Korean-American artists render deeply personal interpretations of the natural world in the exhibit “Nature a Moment” at Matthaei Botanical Gardens. Using woodcut\, painting on canvas\, and mixed media\, Linda Hyong\, Sung Eun Hong\, and Seong Ok Lee explore the world of flowers\, gardens\, and nature in vivid works that slow time to a fleeting present moment.\n\nLinda Hyong is a University of Michigan alumna and former teaching assistant in the U-M Stamps School of Art & Design. She draws her inspiration from Claude Monet’s water lily garden in France to create her own modern interpretation of impressionism. Seong Ok Lee is inspired by flowers\, which she believes are the most beautiful forms in nature. In her dream-like\, nearly abstract paintings\, Sung Eun Hong communicates her vision of what she calls “pure dreams and fantasy.”\n\nExhibit runs September 14 through November 15\, 2019 at the\n\nUniversity of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Gardens\, 1800 N.

Stamps School of Art & Design\, with support from the Nam Center for Korean Studies at the University of Michigan.\n\nThrough visually and auditorily immersive installation\, artist JuYeon Kim recognizes\, illuminates\, and honors the unimaginable suffering and enduring spirit of the Korean “comfort women” (wianbu in Korean) who were forced into sex slavery by the Japanese military during World War II.\n\nIt is estimated over 200\,000 Korean women fell prey to Japanese soldiers during this time period\, many were as young as 14 years old. The girls and women\, often from rural villages\, were enslaved in a variety of ways\, including kidnapping\, coercion\, or being convinced with lies of paid factory work during desperate times of famine. Victims of forced sterilization\, many died during their time of enslavement. Those who survived often did not return home after the war for fear of stigma and rejection. For much of history\, their story has remained untold.\n\nThrough WiAn\, Kim invites viewers to join her in the recognition of this atrocity — and in providing comfort to the souls of these women. Through meditative poetry\, a soundscape by classical music composer George Tsontakis\, and sculptural objects\, Kim creates a physical space for the souls of these women to be honored\, to be comforted\, to let go of the past\, and to move forward. \n\nVisitors to the exhibition encounter an ethereal white gardenscape of transparent and opaque fictitious flora\, comprised of many different plant specimens. White\, the traditional color for Korean funerals\, returns the women to their rightful purity and innocence. At the center of the garden\, two palanquins engraved with original poetry invite the souls of the wianbu to take rest from their arduous journey to be carried like royalty\, to receive unequivocal compassion and kindness. A transparent door and trellis\, also engraved with original poetry\, invites souls to move lightly\, unburdened\, to the next chapter of being.\n\nIn a time when the #metoo movement has brought about a cultural reckoning\, Kim’s work also provides comfort\, strength\, and a space of contemplation for the living\, to all who have suffered and still suffer at the hands of systemic power inequity.\n\nJuYeon Kim is the 2019 Roman J. Witt Artist in Residence at the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan. \n\n  UID:67261-16831205@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/67261 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,History LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190510T121534 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20191024T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20191024T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s DESCRIPTION:Can abstract art be about politics? In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color  to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support of this exhibition:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies UID:58562-15002291@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/58562 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Museum,Politics,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies UID:63803-15884095@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63803 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Museum,Politics,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

Stamps School of Art & Design will host the New Media Caucus 2019 Symposium and Exhibition\, Border Control.  Symposium and exhibition events will take place in Ann Arbor at the Stamps School of Art and Design (2000 Bonisteel Blvd.) and Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.).\n\nExhibition Dates: September 20 - November 10\, 2019\nSymposium Dates: September 19 - 22\, 2019\nGuest Curator: Allison Collins\, Media Arts Curator\, Western Front\n\nCurated by Allison Collins in collaboration with Carrie Edinger and Srimoyee Mitra.\nIn partnership with the New Media Caucus \n\nHuman migration is a defining issue of the 21st century\, often calling into question the relevance\, role\, and responsibilities of national borders across the globe. As individuals seek refuge from geopolitical and environmental forces\, we become an increasingly globalized community. Demarcations of all types are simultaneously porous and closed\, defensive and receptive\, and seen in almost every facet of our existence. Border Control responds to these conditions with an open-ended question\, asking: “How has humanity made sense of the world in relation to borders and boundaries\, both physically and psychologically?” While positioned within (or outside of) defined spaces and identities\, human refusal of such literal definitions is paramount. Even while lines drawn have important consequences for lived reality\, the winds\, currents\, and natural energies of the Earth deny enclosures and definitions that politics and maps might suggest.\n\nDrawn from practices that are touched or driven by new media\, Border Control assembles works by artists who consider geographical contexts\, patterns of migration\, displacement\, and statelessness. Collectively\, they offer projects with subterfuge\, refusal\, and reconsideration of imposed state-sanctioned boundaries.\n\n \n\n  UID:63627-15820767@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63627 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Media LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20191004T181807 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20191024T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20191024T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Collection Ensemble DESCRIPTION:Collection Ensemble presents the first major reinstallation of UMMA's iconic entry space in over a decade.

Born with a developmental condition\, the artist had both her legs amputated at the age of nine and has worn prosthetics ever since. In order to fill a deep gap between her own understanding of self and physicality\, and contemporary society’s simplistic categorizations\, Katayama began to explore her identity by objectifying her body in her art. In photographs she assumes different personas\, dressed in revealing lingerie in private\, domestic spaces or in dramatic waterscapes. The unflinching display of the vulnerabilities and limits of Katayama’s body opens up a broader conversation about anxieties and wounds for all of us—disabled or nondisabled—living in an age obsessed with body image. UMMA’s installation will be the artist’s first solo exhibition in the U.S.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Center for Japanese Studies\, the Japan Business Society of Detroit Foundation\, the Japan Cultural Development\, and Herbert W. and Susan L.

Drawing inspiration from his country’s basketry traditions\, the South African artist Walter Oltmann (b. 1960) alternates densely layered sections with open spaces\, allowing the underlying surface of the work to show through. The skull that emerges is\, in a South African context\, evocative of the Cradle of Humankind—a series of caves outside Johannesburg\, where some of the oldest hominin fossils in the world have been found.\n \nThe work complements UMMA’s renowned and growing collection of historical and contemporary African art and reminds us of the central role of Africa in the history of humankind.

The other traces the Power family’s seminal role in supporting Inuit art and introducing it to a U.S. audience. Seventy years ago\, neither the Inuit artists nor the Power family could have foreseen the tremendous popularity that this work would come to enjoy. Taking its title from the Inuktitut word for “unexpected\,” this stirring exhibition showcases 58 works from the collection of Philip and Kathy Power\, most from the very early contemporary period of the 1950s and 60s. Included are exquisite sculptures of ivory\, bone\, and stone\, as well as stonecut and stencil prints\, some from the first annual Inuit print collection in 1959. Among the renowned Inuit artists featured in this historic survey are Kenojuak Ashevak\, Lucy Qinnuayuak\, Niviaksiak\, Osuitok Ipeelee\, Kananginak Pootoogook\, and Johnny Inukpuk.\n \nThe exhibition also serves as a promising launch pad for future groundbreaking research\, exhibitions\, and programming related to Inuit art and culture at the University of Michigan\, thanks to the generosity of the Power family.\n\nThis exhibition inaugurates the Power Family Program for Inuit Art\, established in 2018 through the generosity of Philip and Kathy Power.

However\, this is a relatively new political phenomenon. In this lecture\, I provide a brief overview of the changes in the role of prime ministers and the power of public opinion over the past fifty years. I also show how changes in methodology and more frequent polls further accelerated prime ministers’ dependence on their approval ratings. Finally\, using available survey data\, I demonstrate how much the impact of prime ministerial approval on individual voting behavior has increased over time.\n \nProfessor Maeda earned his PhD in political science from the University of Michigan in 2001. His research interests include (1) public opinion\, (2) methodologies in survey research\, and (3) data sharing in the social sciences.

Misogynoir also expands the scope of examination and provides an inclusive focus on not just anti-Blackness and White supremacy\, but also intraracially\, in exploring how Black masculinity and Black patriarchy contribute to the objectification of Black women. To gain a sense of the interracial and intraracial experiences of Black women in gaming\, this talk will interrogate ethnographic observations and interviews with Black women and other women of color in online gaming communities. While these examples highlight the continued devaluation of women in public spaces\, my observational narratives weave together a simultaneous engagement with being a Black woman while online\, while gaming\, and while consuming mediated content about Black women in “the real world.” This transmediated engagement illustrates intersectional tech\,\nexploring the entanglements of visual\, textual\, and oral engagements of the Black body in both the digital and physical realms.\n\n\nKishonna Gray is an Assistant Professor in Communication and Gender and Women's Studies at the University of Illinois at Chicago\, and a Faculty Associate at the Berkman-Klein Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University. \n\nPreviously\, she served as an MLK Scholar and Assistant Professor at MIT in the Women & Gender Studies Program as well as a Faculty Visitor at the Social Media Collective at Microsoft Research (Cambridge). \n​\nHer work broadly intersects identity and digital media with a particular focus on video games and gaming culture.

Did you know 92% of companies (including colleges and universities) use or plan to use social media to recruit. Many graduate students have a love/hate relationship with social media. They know they “have to do it” that it’s the “right thing to do\,” but is it necessary in higher education? You may be wondering\, if you are planning to go the faculty tenure route\, is it really necessary? At this workshop\, you will learn how to think more strategically about your social media strategy and presence as a scholar. More specifically\, you’ll decide what type of “professional persona” you are trying to portray and then you’ll learn some tactics and techniques for building your social media network.\nThis workshop is designed for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. Space is limited.

Humans are altering these fluxes by perturbing terrestrial ecosystems through land use change\, land management\, and climate change. In this talk\, I explore how terrestrial processes\, ranging from leaf-level to global scales\, respond to human perturbations and\, in turn\, how changes to terrestrial ecosystems impact climate. Insight into the interactions between terrestrial ecosystems and climate is fundamental to understanding the future of our planet and the natural resources and ecosystem services it provides. This is vital to creating policies effective in regulating perturbations and improving the quality of life for human society.

Specific problems include robotic mixed-type decision-making problems and spacecraft multi-phase mission planning. We propose both off-line and online algorithms to empower autonomy in real-time.\nWe develop the off-line algorithm by first formulating such problems as a Quadratically Constrained Quadratic Programming (QCQP)\, with safety criterions as constraints directly. Subsequently\, to solve the QCQP\, an efficient optimization algorithm is proposed based on inexact augmented Lagrangian methods. Our algorithm admits simple subproblems with closed-form solutions\, which leads to scalability and real-time applicability. Simulation results are presented to validate the effectiveness and efficacy of our algorithms. \nAlso\, for the online algorithm\, Control Barrier Functions (CBF) with forward-invariance is adopted to guarantee safety via calibrating the input from control algorithms. However\, CBF in high-order systems can often encounter infeasibility due to control limitations. To address that\, we learn a differentiable safety hyperplane getting the lower-order states involved. A feedback training scheme is developed to decrease the infeasibility rate recursively. Subsequently\, the newly learned safety hyperplane is added as a constraint in the CBF formulation. Simulation results on path planning demonstrate the improvement of the proposed framework.\n\nAbout the Speaker...\n\nDr. Chuangchuang Sun is currently a postdoctoral associate in the department of aeronautics and astronautics at MIT. He received his Ph.D. in August 2018 from the Ohio State University and a B.S. degree from the Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics\, China in 2013\, both in Aerospace Engineering. His research interest focus on control\, optimization\, reinforcement learning and applications in robotics and space systems.

Research in California has shown significant potential to lower methane emissions from waste management and subsequently increase short-term soil carbon (C) storage via amendments of composted organic material. However\, effective climate change mitigation will require long-term or sustained emissions reduction and C sequestration. We used field experiments and modeling to explore the long-term potential of improved agricultural practices on greenhouse gas emissions and ecosystem C cycling. A decade following a one-time application of composted organic matter to grassland soils\, amended plots accumulated approximately 9 Mg C ha-1 more soil C in the top 30 cm than paired controls. Aboveground plant growth was also higher in the amended plots after 10 years. Soil C stocks and C sequestration rates in compost-amended plots were resistant to rainfall and temperature changes predicted by Earth Systems Models (ESMs). We used two climate models (HadGEM and CanESM) and two climate change scenarios (RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5) to determine the sensitivity of rangeland C dynamics to climate change with and without composted amendments to the year 2100. Drier sites yielded surprisingly high rates of C storage and were less sensitive to climate change than wetter sites. We also used a new micrometeorological approach to estimate greenhouse gas fluxes from composted manure\, green waste\, and food waste\, the highest emitting organic waste streams. We found that manure and green waste had considerably lower methane emission factors than food waste\, and that all composted wastes had lower emission factors with composting than with landfilling or slurrying. Our results show that there are alternative management approaches can both lower greenhouse gas emissions and sequester atmospheric CO2 over short and long time periods\, and thus provide viable climate change mitigation approaches.\n\nView YouTube video of seminar: https://youtu.be/0JjEXOx9mQ8 UID:65474-16605608@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/65474 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Biology,Biosciences,Bsbsigns,Ecology And Evolutionary Biology,Science LOCATION:Biological Sciences Building - 1060 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20191024T181547 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20191024T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20191024T171500 SUMMARY:Other:Measuring Students' Understandings of Multiple Representations in Chemistry DESCRIPTION: Learning chemistry requires students to become fluent in the symbolic language of chemistry. Developing expertise\, however\, requires that students move beyond manipulating symbols to create explanations using particulate models of matter for observations in the laboratory. Failure to accurately interpret and connect these multiple representations of matter is one source of students’ misconceptions. Our research group designs measurement tools to advance our understanding of how students understand and interpret representations for a variety of core concepts.

POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews and the Politics of History in Today’s Poland DESCRIPTION:POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews opened its core exhibition less than five years ago\, but it has already attracted millions of visitors and massive and favorable media attention both in Poland and internationally\, and earned the major European museum awards. However\, since it opposed the so-called Holocaust complicity law in early 2018 and organized a large public program for the 50th anniversary of the 1968 “anti-Zionist campaign” in communist Poland\, it has become an object of media attacks and criticism by the government. This lecture will present the processes that had led to the establishment of the museum and its remarkable success. It will examine how these processes have changed under a culture war dividing the country\; a tendency for expansive government control\; and a memory policy\, which rejects critical coming to terms with difficult pasts as a “pedagogy of shame” and calls for a glorious vision of national history\, focusing on heroism and victimhood. \n \nDariusz Stola is a historian and professor at the Polish Academy of Sciences. He has published ten books and more than 100 articles on the history of Polish-Jewish relations\, the Holocaust\, international migrations and communist regime\, as well as on Polish debates about these pasts. In 2014-2019\, he was the Polin Museum director. \n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to copernicus@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

As we got to hear at the 2018 Ann Arbor Folk Festival\, brothers Page Burkum and Jack Torrey sing and play the guitar\, and their voices fit together as only brother duets can. The Cactus Blossoms were born and raised in Minneapolis and grew up on rock and pop\, but they always had a fondness for old-time country and folk tunes. They began playing as a duo in 2010\, soon they added classic-style originals to their repertoire and landed a band-in-residence spot at St. Paul's Turf Club. The Cactus Blossoms began playing clubs beyond Minnesota as headliners\, and toured with Kacey Musgraves. They were signed to the Red House label\, released their debut album\, \"You're Dreaming\,\" and saw their song \"Mississippi\" featured on Twin Peaks. The Cactus Blossoms come to Michigan with a new release\, \"Easy Way.\" New Orleans songwriter Esther Rose is special guest.
