SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Tuesday Seminar Series - Keystone Predator and Keystone Intransitivity: The Potential Chaos of Competitive Coexistence
DESCRIPTION:This event is part of our ongoing Tuesday Seminar Series.\n\nAbout this seminar: The structure of ecological communities remains enigmatic\, partly due to its dimensionality (many species interacting) and partly due to its network diversity (many ways to “wire” the interactions). It is also a subject of some practical importance\, especially with current concern over the global biodiversity crisis. Venerable concepts\, such as the competitive exclusion principle or the keystone predator hypothesis\, are understood to frequently be embedded within that structure\, and partially responsible for generating it. Here we approach the subject of community structure through a strategic intersection of several particular network modalities – competitive hierarchy\, keystone predator\, keystone intransitivity\, and higher-order trait-mediated effects. Because predation and intransitive competition are both fundamentally oscillatory\, the theoretical framework of coupled oscillators comes into play\, a mathematical structure well-known to be a major source of chaos. We use a set of natural history observations and measurements of a five dimensional system common in the coffee agroecosystem of Puerto Rico to show how the persistence of a subdominant competitor in a competitive hierarchy may be contingent on this particular wiring of the system.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:How to Upskill: Developing Yourself While Maximizing Your Time
DESCRIPTION:Upskilling is key to lifelong learning and professional mobility. According to Gallup\, workers who participate in upskilling earn\, on average\, $8\,000 more than their peers who did not. In addition\, 75 percent of those who participated in skill development shared that their learning had a positive impact on their career development. This webinar will be relevant to all alumni\, from those in their first professional roles\, to those wanting to get promoted\, to those looking to change careers.\n\nWe will:\n-Highlight the benefits of upskilling\n-Identify the varying upskilling stages you may be in\n-Review the steps to start your own skill development journey\n-Discover the specific resources to support you\n-Gain clarity on the ways to advocate for your skill development
