SUMMARY:Fair / Festival:Exposition
DESCRIPTION:The annual UMSI Student Project Exposition brings our community together to celebrate student work at the culmination of the academic year. During Exposition\, School of Information students present projects from capstones\, mastery courses\, other courses and programs\, and independent projects. \n\nThe Award Ceremony will immediately follow the Exposition at 2:00pm. All Exposition guests are welcome to attend. Students who are receiving awards will be notified in advance.\n\nCommunity and corporate partners are encouraged to attend this event to learn more about the work students do at the School of Information. This event is a great way to learn about potential areas in which to focus client-based project proposals for courses and programs at UMSI and explore how hiring UMSI students can benefit your organization.\n\nStudents’ posters are judged by a panel of community and industry leaders. Student teams with exceptional posters will be awarded prizes with funding provided by the Hoffman Family Engaged Learning Fund.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Hydrology Land Use and Climate Change (HYLUCC) Lab End-of-the-Year Presentation!
DESCRIPTION:Betty Jahateh - Masters Thesis Final Presentation\nBetween Tides and Time: Integrating Landsat and SAR to Quantify Species-Level Structural Differentiation and Climate-Driven Dynamics in Gambian Mangroves\n\nMangrove ecosystems provide critical coastal protection\, carbon sequestration\, and fisheries support\, yet they are increasingly vulnerable to climate variability and anthropogenic pressures. However\, most existing mangrove monitoring in West Africa focuses on overall extent rather than species composition\, which leaves a critical gap in species-level mapping that can be addressed using remote sensing techniques capable of distinguishing spectral differences among mangrove species. This study integrates Landsat optical time series\, Sentinel-1 SAR\, elevation metrics\, canopy height\, and field observations to quantify internal mangrove heterogeneity and incorporates SWOT water levels and GLDAS and GPM precipitation data to assess seasonal and annual climate dynamics in The Gambia. Field validation across 26 sites in the North Bank and Lower River Region linked these classes to ecologically meaningful assemblages. We found that classes differed consistently in spectral indices\, SAR backscatter\,\ncanopy height\, and distance to water\, which shows hydrological and tidal zonation. Time-series analysis showed an overall greening trend with some class-level separation through time. Long-term modeled rainfall records (1950-2025) revealed pronounced interannual variability\, with dry conditions beginning in the late\n1960s and continuing through the mid 1990s\, leading to mangrove mortality as documented in other studies.\n\n--\n\nYinjiao Zhong - EARTH-CLASP Researcher\nInland Lake Wind Speed Retrieval: Integration of SWOT and CYGNSS Observations via Cluster-Specific Random Forest Models\n\nMeasuring wind speeds over small inland lakes is difficult due to complex shorelines and low wave heights. This study combines CYGNSS (L-band) and SWOT (Ka-band) satellite data to improve the accuracy of wind speed retrievals over inland lakes. We grouped large and moderate-sized lakes in North America and Asia into 14 categories using K-means clustering based on the features such as area and depth to develop specific geophysical function models (GMFs) for each cluster and validating them with ERA5 data (2023-2025). This study provides essential data for understanding lake energy balances and regional climate.\n\n--\n\nMd Ehsan Alam - EARTH-Taubman Research\nMarsh\, Map\, Margin: Designing Across Disciplines in Deltaic Bangladesh\n\nSecondary cities are among the world's fastest-growing urban areas\, often at the cost of hydrological precarity. This talk examines what happens when urban design enters into conversation with hydrology. Developed jointly between Taubman College and the Hydrology\, Landuse and Climate Change (HYLUCC) Lab at the University of Michigan\, this brief thesis presentation traces how aspirational urbanity encroaches upon perennial floodplains\; displacing aquatic systems\, marginalizing communities\, and erasing vernacular practices. The thesis spans remote sensing\, vernacular knowledge systems\, filmmaking\, and design speculation. What emerges is a provocation about whose city\, whose water\, and whose future.\n\nJoin us via Zoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/91728285595

SUMMARY:Performance:Kathy Beck\, carillon
DESCRIPTION:Kathy Beck performs on the Charles Baird Carillon\, an instrument of 53 bronze bells located inside the Burton Memorial Tower. The largest bell\, which strikes the hour\, weighs 12 tons\, while the smallest bell\, 4½ octaves above\, weighs just 15 pounds.\n\nThirty-minute recitals are performed on the Charles Baird Carillon at noon every weekday that classes are in session\, followed by visitor Q&A with the carillonist. The bell chamber may be accessed via a combination of elevator and stairs. Take the elevator to the highest floor possible (floor 8)\, and then climb two flights of stairs (39 steps) to the bell chamber (floor 10). Hearing protection earmuffs are provided for visitors. Be prepared to walk on ice and snow in the bell chamber during winter. Built in 1936\, the Charles Baird Carillon is not ADA accessible. Visitors with mobility concerns are invited to visit the Lurie Carillon.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Revolutionary Paine: Andy Murphy Student-Curated Class Exhibit Common Sense
DESCRIPTION:Thomas Paine’s “Common Sense” was one of the most influential works of the American Revolution. The first edition was published on January 10\, 1776\, with an initial print run of just 1\,000 copies\; but within weeks demand soared. The students of Andy Murphy’s POLISCI 495 course co-curated the exhibition “Revolutionary Paine” to document the whirlwind caused by its publication. On view at the Clements January 16-May 8\, weekdays from 12-4 pm.
