For a limited time, we are sponsoring free access to this film's virtual viewing. For instructions, please email cseas@umich.edu with the subject “Request to watch ‘A Thousand Cuts’”

About the movie:
On June 15, 2020, journalist Maria Ressa was found guilty of cyber libel, setting a ticking clock on the limited time she has to get her story out to the world and keep the fight for democracy alive in this all too familiar tale of an autocratic leader drowning out “fake news.” Nowhere is the worldwide erosion of democracy, fueled by social media disinformation campaigns, more starkly evident than in the authoritarian regime of Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte. Ressa places the tools of the free press—and her freedom—on the line in defense of truth and democracy. Ramona S. Diaz’s thrilling film follows key players from two sides of an increasingly dangerous war between press and government. As each side digs in, we become witness to an epic and ongoing fight for the integrity of human life and truth itself—a conflict that extends beyond the Philippines into our own divisive backyard. A Film by Ramona S. Diaz (IMELDA, MOTHERLAND).

Cosponsored by the Michigan Theater.

Exhibition:Abstraction, Color, and Politics in the 60s and 70s: Kaleidoscope
2020-09-09 11:00 - 17:00, 2020-09-10 11:00 - 17:00, 2020-09-11 11:00 - 17:00, 2020-09-12 11:00 - 17:00, 2020-09-13 12:00 - 17:00, 2020-09-15 11:00 - 17:00 | Museum of Art - A. Alfred Taubman Gallery II
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 in the midst of the political and cultural upheavals of the 1960s and 70s. Kaleidoscope, UMMA’s third and final edition of this exhibition series, examines the constantly changing practices of local Detroit artists, women artists, and artists of color as they actively embraced abstraction’s possibilities. Their strategies dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in a shifting American political landscape.

Support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment, the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund, and the Robert and Janet Miller Fund

EXTRAORDINARY ARTISTS, STARTLING WORKS OF ART, PUT IN DIALOG FOR YOU TO DISCOVER

Collection Ensemble presents the first major reinstallation of UMMA's iconic entry space in over a decade. It exchanges Alumni Memorial Hall's previous focus on European and American painting for a broad mix of American, European, African, and Asian art from across media, sampling the Museum's remarkable, disparate holdings. The installation is organized into thematic and formal vignettes that respond to the concepts and ideas resonating from an extraordinary large-scale photograph of a vacant cathedral by contemporary German artist Candida Höfer. Featuring works of art by numerous famous and not-so-famous artists, many of them artists of color and women—including Charles Alston, Christo, Theaster Gates, Jenny Holzer, Roni Horn, Do-Ho Suh, Kara Walker, and others, Collection Ensemble reimagines the collection not as a fixed entity with one set of meanings to be unearthed, but instead as an active, creative, sometimes startling source of material and ideas, open for debate and interpretation.

Watershed brings work from thirteen contemporary regional and international artists to UMMA for an exhibition that asks visitors to recognize complex, tangled histories about the Great Lakes, its watershed, and the surrounding region.

Through the use of experimental photography, painting, sculpture, and textile work, these artists explore issues of water security, pollution, and the deep cultural histories of the Great Lakes region. Taken together, their work highlights the complicated personal, political, and economic relationships between people, the water we depend on, the lands we call home, and the forces challenging the sanctity of it all.

These artists encourage us to consider the bodies of water as a resource linked to our survival, with complex histories of cultural exchange. Their stories are different, and their perspectives and interpretations are varied. But these artists demonstrate how art can contribute to and shape current dialogues on the region’s critical water crises.

Watershed includes many new, exclusive works commissioned by UMMA for the exhibition including:
A series of large-scale cyanotype prints from Washington-based artist Meghann Riepenhoff processed in the watershed of Lake Ontario on the Genesee River, near the former site of Eastman Kodak Co. production facility; Calligraphic paintings from Syrian-born and Dubai-based artist Khaled Al-Saai that explore how language can be used to visually connect us to meanings found in the watery worlds above and below the surfaces of the Great Lakes; A new mural by Toronto-based artist Bonnie Devine from the Serpent River First Nation will examine accounts of western expansion across the state of Michigan; and, Detroit-based musician, artist, and activist Sacramento Knoxx, along with The Aadizookaan, will fill the gallery with recorded song compositions made with water samples from each Great Lake and other sacred materials.

Lead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost, Michigan Medicine, and the ​Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund. Additional generous support is provided by P.J. and Julie Solit and the University of Michigan School for Environment and Sustainability and Department of English Language and Literature.

Livestream / Virtual:CAS Webinar | From the Alexander Romance to the Base of the City of Brass: Movements of Medieval Armenian Poetry
2020-09-09 12:00 - 13:30 | Off Campus Location
Please register in advance for the webinar here:

http://myumi.ch/mnYVk

After registration, you will receive a confirmation email with instructions on how to join the webinar.

The Armenian “Alexander Romance,” translated as early as the 5th century, was accompanied in the medieval period by short poems that heightened the sensory or emotional stakes of a scene, moralized on Alexander’s actions, or fit the marvels of the world’s edges into Christian Creation. These poems traveled further: into the early modern, abbreviated version of the “Alexander Romance” where new poems were composed; and into separate anthology manuscripts, where they were copied in short, standalone collections alongside hymns, poetry, or entire wonder tales. This lecture will explore the movements of these poems, offering a guide into their fluidity and change between texts and manuscripts across the centuries.

Alex MacFarlane earned their PhD from the University of Oxford in 2020. Their dissertation titled “Alexander Re-Mapped: Geography and Identity in the ‘Alexander Romance’ in Armenia” examines how medieval Armenian literary traditors composed ‘kafas’ (short, monorhymed poems) to accompany the “Alexander Romance.” Using these ‘kafas’, Dr. MacFarlane is able to situate the text’s more fantastical parts – where Alexander journeys to the edges of the world – within a broader Christian cosmology. Dr. MacFarlane’s current research interests include the translation and circulation of wonder tales in the medieval and early modern Caucasus and Middle East, especially the “Alexander Romance” and the “History of the City of Brass.”

Lecture / Discussion:EER Seminar Series
2020-09-09 15:30 - 16:30 | Off Campus Location
There is a significant knowledge gap regarding factors that influence the participation of Black and Hispanic women in computer science, and Dr. Ross has engaged in research to address this gap. She works to critically examine efforts and initiatives that aim to broaden participation in computer science by listening to voices of individuals who are often unheard. The outcomes of Dr. Ross’ research have the potential to reshape the community’s perceptions of what and who are computer scientists, and as well as to crack the code to diversifying this lucrative and impactful discipline. This talk will describe Dr. Ross’ research journey and will present preliminary results.

BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH: Monique Ross, Assistant Professor in the School of Computing & Information Sciences and in the STEM Transformation Institute at Florida International University, earned a Ph.D. in Engineering Education from Purdue University. She has a B.S. degree in Computer Engineering from Elizabethtown College, an M.S. degree in Computer Science & Software Engineering from Auburn University, eleven years of experience in industry as a software engineer, and four years of experience as a full-time faculty member in computer science and engineering. Dr. Ross’ interests focus on broadening participation in computing through the exploration of: 1) race, gender, and identity in the academy and industry; and 2) discipline-based education research (with a focus on computer science and computer engineering courses) in order to inform pedagogical practices that garner interest and retain women and minorities in computer-related engineering fields. She was awarded the prestigious NSF CAREER award, and she uses her scholarship to challenge the perceptions of who belongs in computing.

Lecture / Discussion:DCMB / CCMB Weekly Seminar Series
2020-09-09 16:00 - 17:00 | Off Campus Location - https://umich-health.zoom.us/j/93929606089?pwd=[REDACTED]
Abstract: Birth defects that interfere with craniofacial development can result in cognitive, neurosensory, and neuroendocrine defects that create life-long burdens for care. The forebrain, midbrain, hindbrain, five facial prominences, and pituitary gland develop between the first and second month of gestation in humans. Genetic defects that disrupt these processes cause a spectrum of disorders that range from holoprosencephaly (HPE) and septo-optic dysplasia (SOD) to pituitary hormone deficiencies. We screened a large cohort of Argentinean patients with congenital hypopituitarism and related disorders for mutations in known genes and identified novel pathogenic variants and examples of digenic disease. However, the majority of patients did not receive a molecular diagnosis, indicating the high degree of genetic complexity underlying these disorders and the need for additional gene discovery. The majority of known hypopituitarism genes were discovered through basic research in pituitary cell lines and mutant mice. To identify novel regulatory genes for pituitary organogenesis we analyzed differential binding of a key pituitary-specific transcription factor, POU1F1, in cell lines that represent pituitary progenitors and differentiated cells. We discovered that POU1F1 binding is associated with bZIP transcription factors in progenitors and with bHLH factors in differentiated cells. We also applied single cell RNA sequencing technology to analyze gene expression during pituitary organogenesis and discovered novel transcription factors that are candidates for driving cell specification as well as unique, rare cell types that are likely differentiation intermediates. Bioinformatic analyses have played key roles in advancing our knowledge of neuroendocrine birth defects and normal pituitary organogenesis.

Title: Investigating Nonequilibrium Ionization and Recombination Processes in Solar Wind and Transient Plasma

Abstract: In this work, I investigated the evolution of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) and the solar wind by combining remote sensing, in situ observations, and nonequilibrium ionization modeling using the Michigan Ionization Code (MIC). The work investigates physical processes governing the plasma’s radial evolution and the injection of energy to the system. The aim of this thesis is to investigate low ionized charge states in CMEs and He+ in the solar wind to understand their origin and formation.
Through simulations of charge states with the MIC, the modeling work reconstructed the thermodynamic evolution of several plasma structures within the expansion of a coronal mass ejection (CME) by examining heliospheric ion composition within the ejecta. The reconstructed CME contained rare, low charge states, which are often absent within CMEs, along with typical highly ionized coronal plasma. Modeling results show that the source of the low ionized material in the CME measurements is from prominence material and are not a result of recombination from cooling of the plasma. However, part of the prominence also exists in a highly ionized form. These results provide important constraints to the evolution of prominence material that is often observed at the Sun but rarely measured in situ.

In addition, this study indicated the CME components experienced rapid, continuous, and non-uniform heating as they travelled away from the Sun. Motivated by these results, I identified useful spectral lines to study the eruption with future solar telescopes. This study investigated the diagnostic potential of several spectral lines spanning the EUV to near-Infrared and ranging between chromospheric and sub-flare temperatures to enable a comprehensive examination of solar eruptions that can be coupled with in situ and nonequilibrium modeling. I present a list of recommended spectral lines along with a discussion of their diagnostic capability. Results show that several of the most observable lines will be within the planned observations of future solar telescopes; Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope (DKIST), and Upgraded COronal Multi-channel Polarimeter (UCoMP), and instruments on Solar Orbiter, e.g. Spectral Imaging of the Coronal Environment (SPICE) and Multi-Element Telescope for Imaging and Spectroscopy (METIS).

Furthermore, I investigated the presence of singly ionized He in the solar wind, that are outside of CME cores and pick up ions, to determine their origin and formation mechanism using the MIC. Current ionization models of the solar wind cannot account for the enhanced density of He+ observed at 1AU, therefore we reconcile the additional He+ through charge exchange of solar wind alphas and outgassed interplanetary dust neutrals. We find that charge exchange processes can be an important mechanism in the formation of solar He+ from alphas particles below 10-15Rsun, and due to this, may potentially shape ion densities for other species in the solar wind as well.

Workshop / Seminar:SEMINAR: "Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in Operations Research and Analytics: A Research Agenda for Scholarship, Practice and Service" — Michael P. Johnson
2020-09-10 15:00 - 16:00 | Off Campus Location
The Departmental Seminar Series is open to all. U-M Industrial and Operations Engineering graduate students and faculty are especially encouraged to attend.

Title:
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in Operations Research and Analytics: A Research Agenda for Scholarship, Practice and Service

Abstract:
Diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) refers to strategies and processes that enable organizations to become more reflective of and responsive to identities, values and experiences of different stakeholder groups. Organizations committed to DEI may better fulfill their missions and improve the well-being of their stakeholder groups and of society at large.

In this talk, I will explore the presence of DEI in OR/analytics through an assessment of the profession (the diversity of OR/analytics practitioners) and scholarship (published and emerging work that addresses DEI and related issues). My focus will be on traditionally underrepresented and marginalized groups and communities. I will discuss current and proposed initiatives to support the increased application of DEI principles throughout OR/analytics practice, research and education. I will argue that infusing DEI and social & racial justice principles within OR/analytics can enable our society to become more equitable, more just and more welcoming of people from diverse backgrounds, identities and communities.

TITLE: PROMINENT: unraveling the secrets of solar prominences and coronal rain showers

ABSTRACT: In the ERC-funded project PROMINENT, we set forth to study the `coolest' part of the million-degree solar atmosphere: the condensations formed by thermal instabilities. These come in all shapes and sizes, with the largest condensations forming prominences - clouds suspended magnetically against gravity, one hundredfold cooler and denser than the atmosphere itself. Their formation, internal dynamics, and ultimate ejection into violent coronal mass ejections are routinely witnessed with modern solar observatories, but they pose severe challenges to modelling efforts. I will present state-of-the-art magnetohydrodynamic simulations, where the process of runaway condensations due to radiative losses is studied in unprecedented detail. The
simulations cover prominence scenarios as well as coronal rain showers, where small-scale condensations repeatedly form and rain down in thermodynamically structured magnetic arcades. This solar analog of our own weather turns out to be ubiquitous throughout the solar atmosphere. Our simulations all use the opensource MPI-AMRVAC simulation toolkit [1,2], where the grid-adaptivity is essential to zoom in on details that will be resolved by future observing facilities.

Class / Instruction:Chair's Distinguished Lecture: Safe and Adversarially-Robust Multi-Agent Systems
2020-09-10 16:00 - 17:15 | Off Campus Location
Dimitra Panagou
Associate Professor
Aerospace Engineering
University of Michigan

Planning, navigation and control for multi-agent systems have been fundamental topics of research with numerous applications in unmanned aerial vehicles and robotic networks. Despite significant progress over the years, there are still open challenges due to constraints (in terms of state and time specifications), adversarial or faulty information, environmental uncertainty and scalability. This talk will present some of our recent results and ongoing work on safe and adversarially-robust multi-robot systems. The proposed framework provides provably-correct and computationally-efficient solutions on the mission synthesis of multi-agent systems in the presence of adversarial attacks and spatiotemporal constraints.

About the speaker...

Dimitra Panagou received the Diploma and PhD degrees in Mechanical Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens, Greece, in 2006 and 2012, respectively. Since September 2014 she has been a faculty member with the Department of Aerospace Engineering, University of Michigan. Prior to joining the University of Michigan, she was a postdoctoral research associate with the Coordinated Science Laboratory, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign (2012-2014), a visiting research scholar with the GRASP Lab, University of Pennsylvania (June 2013, fall 2010) and a visiting research scholar with the University of Delaware, Mechanical Engineering Department (spring 2009).
Dr. Panagou's research program spans the areas of nonlinear systems and control; multi-agent systems and networks; motion and path planning; human-robot interaction; navigation, guidance, and control of aerospace vehicles. She is particularly interested in the development of provably-correct methods for the safe and secure (resilient) operation of autonomous systems in complex missions, with applications in robot/sensor networks and multi-vehicle systems (ground, marine, aerial, space). Dr. Panagou is a recipient of the NASA Early Career Faculty Award, the AFOSR Young Investigator Award, the NSF CAREER Award, and a Senior Member of the IEEE and the AIAA.

Performance:Cancelled - The East Pointers
2020-09-10 20:00 - 21:00 | Off Campus Location
The East Pointers—fiddler/singer Tim Chaisson, banjoist Koady Chaisson and guitarist Jake Charron—write about real life, sketching out its joys and sorrows in vivid strokes. That palpable authenticity makes their instrumental tunes practically cartwheel and infuses their lyric-driven songs with poignancy. As a follow-up to 2015's internationally acclaimed, JUNO Award-winning debut "Secret Victory," their new "What We Leave Behind" shares stories previously unheard but framed by a familiar context. The album reflects on the traditions of Canadian Celtic music, where it comes from, and what it means to the people, but also strides in new directions. With a captivating balance between their traditional-sounding instrumental tunes, and catchy radio-ready songs, The East Pointers reach out with open arms to a wide range of listeners, inviting them to discover a new love of folk music. They come to Michigan with a new release, "Yours to Break."

Livestream / Virtual:Data Science, Time Complexity, and Spacekime Analytics
2020-09-11 12:00 - 13:00 | Off Campus Location - Virtual
Digital information flows impact all human experiences. The proliferation of large, heterogeneous, and spatio-temporal data requires novel approaches for managing, modeling, analyzing, interpreting, and visualizing complex information. The scientific community is developing, validating, productizing, and supporting novel mathematical techniques, advanced statistical computing algorithms, transdisciplinary tools, and effective artificial intelligence apps.

Spacekime analytics is a new technique for modeling high-dimensional longitudinal data. This approach relies on extending the notions of time, events, particles, and wavefunctions to complex-time (kime), complex-events (kevents), data, and inference-functions. We will illustrate how the kime-magnitude (longitudinal time order) and kime-direction (phase) affect the subsequent predictive analytics and the induced scientific inference. The mathematical foundation of spacekime calculus reveals interesting statistical implications including inferential uncertainty and a Bayesian formulation of spacekime analytics. Complexifying time allows the lifting of all commonly observed processes (e.g., time-series) from the classical 4D Minkowski spacetime to a 5D spacekime manifold (e.g., kime-surfaces), where a number of mathematical problems remain to be solved.

Workshop / Seminar:Minicolloquium | Coulomb Explosion of Cold Non-Neutral Rubidium Plasma
2020-09-11 13:00 - 14:00 | Off Campus Location
We study the expansion of a cold, non-neutral ion plasma into the vacuum. The plasma is prepared by UV (355-nm) photo-ionization of Rb atoms in a magneto-optical trap. We report on the formation and persistence of shock shells in the Coulomb-exploding plasma, as well as external-field-induced plasma focusing effects. Simulated results from a trajectory model and a fluid model verify the formation of shock shells. The computational analysis allows us to calculate time- and position-dependent density, temperature, and Coulomb coupling parameter, reaffirming the presence of shock shells and strong coupling in our experiment. Among other insights, the analysis further reveals the time scale of disorder-induced heating, the build-up of pair correlations, adiabatic expansion, and ballistic cooling.

Class / Instruction:AE285 Engineering Seminar: COVID-19: How the Aerospace Ecosystem Went Into Hybernation Mode
2020-09-11 13:30 - 15:00 | Off Campus Location
Mike Stengel
Senior Associate
AeroDynamic Advisory

The aerospace industry is no strangers to crises, be it economic downturns, oil price shocks, geopolitical events, or acts of terrorism. The industry has also faced outbreaks of disease as well, but COVID-19 has posed the most challenging circumstances in the entire history of the business. How did the industry respond in the wake of growing cases? How have airlines shifted into “survival mode” and what measures have they taken? How long is this hibernation period sustainable? What are the impacts on suppliers to airlines, like manufacturers and maintenance providers? What’s the outlook for the recovery, and what could the industry potentially look like on the other side? What does this mean for students looking to enter aerospace? What opportunities will arise, and which avenues will become more difficult? In this seminar, AeroDynamic Advisory Senior Associate Mike Stengel will outline the series of events that have characterized the COVID-19 outbreak, and the outlook for the aerospace industry.

About the speaker...

Livestream / Virtual:Joshua Davis - Ark Family Room Series
2020-09-11 20:00 - 21:00 | Off Campus Location
Speaking or singing, the voice of Joshua Davis is a disarming instrument: weathered and warm, as capable of conjuring confessional intimacy on a global stage as it is of making a small room, well off the beaten path, resonate with startling urgency and power. Couple it with an earnest poetic sensibility, a boundless work ethic, and an uncanny gift for connecting with audiences spanning generations, and it’s no wonder that Davis is now poised at the brink of the sort of widespread recognition that typically passes right over such a humble troubadour.

Over the past twenty years, Michigan-based Davis has honed an impressive range of skills – songwriter, bandleader, guitarist, and vocalist among them – in the most honest possible fashion: night after night, song after song, show after show Davis simply delivered every performance as though his life depended on it. Investing himself in the American musical diaspora, he has explored the common thread connecting folk, blues, jazz, ragtime, and country forms – discovering his personal perspective as a composer in the process.

Livestream / Virtual:CMENAS Colloquium Series. King of Kings of Africa: Racializing Qaddafi in the Visual Output of the 2011 Libyan Uprisings
2020-09-14 16:00 - 18:00 | Off Campus Location
The 2020 CMENAS Colloquium Series theme is "The Arab Spring: 10 Years Later."
(Please register at http://myumi.ch/jxDBz; a Zoom link will be emailed to you the day of the event.)

About the Presentation:
During the 2011 popular uprisings in the Arab world, battles unfolded through oppositional image-worlds, in which the incumbent icons of state were mocked via visual forms of humor falling all along the comedic spectrum. In Libya, pictorial forms of ridicule had as their main target the country’s “Brother Leader” Muammar al-Gaddafi. After failing to win support from Arab governments, Gaddafi fashioned himself as a traditional sub-Saharan chief and the “King of Kings of Africa.” His bombastic title, Afro-like hairdo, and eye-catching robes made him an easy target for visual satire, which turned visibly more racist when he began using mercenaries drawn from sub-Saharan Africa to suppress street demonstrations. Throughout the uprisings, members of the opposition—including cartoonists and muralists—sought to degrade Gaddafi through the use of visual stereotypes, revealing that within the particular case of Libya, satirical contentions during the so-called “Arab Spring” were not just transgressive and factional but instrumentally racist as well.

About the Speaker:
Christiane Gruber’s primary field of research is Islamic book arts, paintings of the Prophet Muhammad, and Islamic ascension texts and images, about which she has written two books and edited a volume of articles. She also pursues research in Islamic book arts and codicology, having authored the online catalogue of Islamic calligraphies in the Library of Congress as well as edited the volume of articles, The Islamic Manuscript Tradition. Her third field of specialization is modern Islamic visual culture and post-revolutionary Iranian visual and material culture, about which she has written several articles. She also has co-edited two volumes on Islamic and cross-cultural visual cultures. She recently completed her third book, titled The Praiseworthy One: The Prophet Muhammad in Islamic Texts and Images.

Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | The Low-energy Electronic-recoil Excess in the XENON1T Dark Matter Experiment
2020-09-14 16:00 - 17:00 | Off Campus Location
The XENON1T liquid xenon time projection chamber is the most sensitive WIMP dark matter detector to date. Though the main WIMP search is performed by selecting for nuclear recoils, electronic-recoil events can also hold evidence for new physics, such as solar axions, bosonic dark matter, or neutrino magnetic moments. The low backgrounds achieved in this experiment allow for precision searches, even at low recoil energies. I will discuss the recent results of the electronic-recoil search in XENON1T and the implications for new physics channels.

TITLE: Investigating the Sensitivity of Spaceborne GNSS-R Measurements to Ocean Surface Winds and Rain

Faculty Advisor: Chris Ruf

ABSTRACT: Earth remote sensing using reflected Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signals is an emerging trend, especially for ocean surface wind measurements, primarily due to its all day/all-weather capability. GNSS-Reflectometry (GNSS-R) measurements of ocean surface scattering cross section are directly related to the surface roughness at scale sizes ranging from small capillary waves to long gravity waves. These roughness scales are predominantly due to swell, surface winds and other meteorological phenomena such as rain. In this study we are interested in understanding and characterizing the impact of these phenomena on GNSS-R signals through observations and models in order to develop a better understanding of the geophysical parameters retrieved from these measurements.

In the first part of this work, we look at GNSS-R measurements made by the NASA Cyclone Global Navigation Satellite System (CYGNSS) for developing an effective wind retrieval model function for GNSS-R measurements. In a fully developed sea state, the wind field has a constant speed and direction over a sufficiently long time and distance and can be assumed to be spatially homogeneous; thus the surface roughness at all scale sizes can be assumed to be wind driven. In this case, a single Fully Developed Seas (FDS) Geophysical Model Function (GMF) is constructed which relates the scattering cross section to the near surface wind speed. However, the sea age and fetch length conditions inside a hurricane are in general not consistent with a fully developed sea state. Therefore, a separate empirical Young Sea Limited Fetch (YSLF) GMF is developed to represent the conditions inside a hurricane. Also, the degree of under development of the seas is not constant inside hurricanes and conditions vary significantly with azimuthal location within the hurricane due to changes in the relative alignment of the storm’s forward motion and its cyclonic rotation. As a result, the relationship between the surface roughness at different scale sizes is azimuthally dependent, as is the relationship between scattering cross section and wind speed represented by the GMF. The azimuthal dependence of the scattering cross-section is modelled and a modified azimuthal YSLF GMF is constructed using measurements by CYGNSS which are nearly coincident with HWRF reanalysis winds for 19 hurricanes in 2017 and 2018.

Next, we study the impact of rain on CYGNSS measurements. GNSS-R uses L-band navigation signals that can penetrate through clouds and rain. Rain has a negligible impact on the transmitted signal in terms of path attenuation at this wavelength. However, there are other effects due to rain, such as changes in surface roughness and rain induced local winds, which can significantly alter the measurements. Currently there are no careful observation-based characterizations of the impact of rain on radar forward scatter, which is the nature of operation of GNSS-R missions. In this part of the study we propose a 3-fold rain model for GNSS-R signals which accounts for: 1) attenuation; 2) surface effects of rain; and 3) rain induced local winds. The attenuation model suggests that a total of 96% or greater transmissivity exists at L-Band up to a rain rate of 30mm/hr. A perturbation model is used to characterize the other two rain effects. It suggests that rain is accompanied by an overall reduction in the scattering cross-section of the ocean surface and, most importantly, this effect is observed only up to surface wind speeds of ~15 m/s, beyond which the gravity capillary waves dominate the scattering in the quasi-specular direction. This work binds together several rain-related phenomena and enhances our overall understanding of rain effects on GNSS-R measurements.

Next, we try to understand the behavior of GNSS-R signals in a near specular scattering regime (surface wind speeds < 5 m/s). Over the ocean surface, roughness can be described by the Mean Square Slope (MSS) which is the integration of the omnidirectional wave spectrum up to an upper limit on the wavenumber which is defined by the Geometric Optics (GO) approximation. In this work we have identified that this upper limit is not applicable at very low wind speed ranges. A new wavenumber model is proposed that shows a dependence of the upper limit on wind speed at very low wind speed ranges (< 5 m/s) and asymptotes to the GO limit at higher wind speeds. This model suggests that the GO limit breaks down at very low wind speeds, and it is under those conditions that the effects of surface roughening by rain becomes significant and is measurable due to an increase in the upper bound on wavenumbers that affect the MSS.

Finally, one of the important objectives for the CYGNSS mission is to provide high quality global scale GNSS-R measurements that can reliably be used for ocean science applications such as the study of ocean wind speed dynamics, tropical cyclone genesis, coupled ocean wave modelling and assimilation into Numerical Weather Prediction models. To achieve this goal, strong quality control filters are needed to detect and remove outlier measurements. Currently, quality control of CYGNSS data products are based on fixed thresholds on various engineering, instrument, and measurement conditions. In this part of the work we develop a Neural Network based quality control filter for automated outlier detection of CYGNSS retrieved winds. The primary merit of the proposed Machine Learning (ML) filter is its ability to better account for interactions between the individual engineering, instrument and measurement conditions than can separate thresholded flags for each one. Use of ML capabilities to capture inherent patterns in the data provides an efficient and effective mechanism to detect and remove outlier measurements, thereby significantly improving the data quality.

Please plan to attend virtually.

Livestream / Virtual:Political Economy Workshop (PEW)
2020-09-15 12:00 - 13:20 | Off Campus Location
Abstract: Do refugees reshape long-term political behavior in receiving areas? To investigate this question, I examine the expulsion of ethnic Germans from Eastern Europe into West Germany at the end of WWII. Expellees were strangers to the cultural practices in their new surroundings. Tensions with natives forced expellees to rely on each other and helped foster a strong group identity. I argue that this shared identity, coupled with political circumstances specific to Germany, engendered support for the radical right among expellees. Using district-level data from 32 elections spanning 100 years, I find that communities which received greater shares of expellees remain more supportive of the radical right in the short, medium, and long term. This legacy of forced migration responds to changes in the political context within Germany, and is driven primarily by districts that received greater shares of expellees who were not citizens of the Reich during the interwar period.

Email political-economy-workshop@umich.edu for the meeting link.

PEW provides a unique forum for doctoral students and faculty members to share and develop interdisciplinary research in political economy. Political science and economics are intimately linked in both substance and methodology, and the field of political economy is among the most fertile and enduring areas for cross-disciplinary research in the social sciences. Currently, PEW is the sole interdisciplinary workshop at the University of Michigan wholly dedicated to the exploration of current research in political economy, and thus plays a valuable role in fostering connections among the university’s various departments and schools.

Workshop / Seminar:Economic Theory: Implementation via Transfers with Identical but Unknown Distributions (Joint work with Antonio Penta)
2020-09-15 13:00 - 14:20 | Off Campus Location
Abstract:
We consider mechanism design environments in which agents commonly know that types are identically distributed across agents, but without assuming that the actual distribution is common knowledge, nor that it is known to the designer (common knowledge of identicality). Under these assumptions, we explore problems of partial and full implementation, as well as robustness. First, we characterize the transfers which are incentive compatible under the assumption of common knowledge of identicality, and provide necessary and suﬃcient conditions for partial implementation. Second, we characterize the conditions under which full implementation is possible via direct mechanisms, as well as the transfer schemes which achieve full implementation whenever it is possible. Finally, we study the robustness properties of the implementing transfers with respect to misspeciﬁcations of agents’ preferences and with respect to lower orders beliefs in rationality.

Exhibition:Get Out the Vote: Empowering the Women's Vote
2020-09-15 14:00 - 19:00 | Off Campus Location
Organized by AIGA in partnership with League of Women Voters

2020 marks the centennial of the ratification of the 19th Amendment, granting women the right to vote in 1920. It was the first legislation for women’s voting rights. Not until the passage of the Voting Rights Act in 1965 were voting rights of ALL women protected and enforced, and intimidation tactics progressively eliminated. The Get Out the Vote: Empowering the Women’s Vote poster campaign, organized by AIGA in partnership with the League of Women Voters, commemorates this milestone. A core group of invited women of design submitted the first 65 non-partisan posters, to launch the initiative with their vision and voices. Through the posters, these women joined forces to collectively contribute to dialogue in design and society. This moment in history is an incredible opportunity to catalyze women in design, voting rights, citizenship, community, and diversity. The collection aspires to not only support present day voter participation, but to also serve as a backdrop for discourse and examination of the history of voting rights and women’s fight for equality. The poster initiative continues at aiga.org/vote, where AIGA members can contribute posters to motivate the American public to register and turn out to vote in the 2020 general election, as well as local elections to come. Posters are available for free download online.

The Get Out the Vote: Empowering the Women’s Vote exhibition at Stamps Gallery includes a selection of the 65 posters chosen by a committee of Stamps faculty, students, and staff including Nicholas Dowgwillo, Eloise Janssen, Keesa V. Johnson, Francis Nunoo-Quarcoo, Endi Poskovic, Destini Riley, and Stamps Gallery. The exhibition includes posters by Audrey Bennett, Johanna Björk, Karen Cheng, Emily Comfort, Jenny El-Shamy, Dinah Fried, Karin Fong, Anne M. Giangiulio, Annabelle Gould, Brockett Horne, Meena Khalili, nicole killian + shawné michaelain holloway, Karen Kurycki, Marty Maxwell Lane, Zuzana Licko, Ana Llorente, Beatriz Lozano, Kelly Salchow MacArthur, Rebeca Mendez, Lana Rigsby, Kaleena Sales, Renee Seward, Laurel Shoemaker, Nancy Sklolos, Hannah Smotrich, Shanti Sparrow, Jennifer Sterling, Fearn de Vicq, Cymone Wilder, and Lynne Yun.

Exhibition:Real and Imagined: Fabric Works and Video Animations by Heidi Kumao
2020-09-15 14:00 - 19:00 | Off Campus Location
Stamps Gallery is pleased to present Real and Imagined: Fabric Works and Video Animations, a solo exhibition of narrative fabric works and experimental animations by Stamps Professor Heidi Kumao.

Using fabric cutouts and machine and hand stitching on industrial felt, Kumao gives physical form to the intangible dynamics underlying ordinary conversations and relationships from a feminist perspective. Intentionally minimal, each image distills an interaction, traumatic incident, or power imbalance into an accessible visual narrative. Recognizable objects such as chairs, roots, ladders, or spotlights set the stage for the story to unfold. Events are captured midstream, suspended in time like a felt film still.

The exhibition is inspired, in part, by the courage, testimony, and experiences of women (like Christine Blasey Ford) who publicly report assault, harassment, or misconduct. The #MeToo movement gave voice to thousands of women to tell their personal stories, but also exposed a hostile backlash meant to silence them. The title, “Real and Imagined,” is a deliberate contradiction; if one is true, the other must not be. In practice, however, both terms are used to reference a woman’s testimony and determine how it is publicly interpreted. Her account is accepted as truthful by many and simultaneously dismissed as imaginary by the court of public opinion: “her memory is wrong,” “she imagined it.”

The works in “Real and Imagined: Fabric Works and Video Animations” make difficult conversations and relationships tangible by stripping them down to their essentials.

Wordless physical gestures highlight the psychological and emotional forces at play behind even the smallest of interactions.

Biography
Heidi Kumao has created award-winning experimental films, video installations, cinema machines, electronic clothing, and kinetic sculptures. She has exhibited her work in solo and group exhibitions nationally and internationally including shows at Art Science Museum Singapore, Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona, Fundació Joan Miró (Barcelona), and Museu da Imagem e do Som (São Paulo). She has received fellowships from the Creative Capital Foundation, the Guggenheim Foundation, and the New York Foundation for the Arts. She is a professor at the Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan.

Auditions:Respond / Resist / Rethink: A Stamps Poster & Video Exhibition
2020-09-15 14:00 - 19:00 | Off Campus Location
Respond/ Resist/ Rethink: A Stamps Student Poster & Video Exhibition

Stamps Gallery is proud to kick-off the fall semester with Respond/ Resist/ Rethink: A Student Poster & Video Exhibition, which brings together powerful posters and playful videos made by the students of Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design.

Stamps Gallery is an incubator and lab for contemporary artists and designers to explore ideas and projects that catalyze positive social change. As the pandemic grips our nation it has exposed the social, political, and economic disparities that have disproportionately impacted Black, Indigenous, and People of Color. The world witnessed in horror and sadness the meaningless loss of African American lives with George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, among many others that we will never know. National and international outcries brought people together from multiple races, genders, and generations - on social media and in the streets - to publicly demand an end to police brutality, structural racism, and emphasizing that Black Lives Matter. What is the role of a university gallery in this time of crisis? How can we foster an inclusive platform for the stakeholders in our community to voice their ideas and foster a community based on equality, belonging, respect? We found inspiration in the thoughtful words of renowned civil rights leader and Congressman John Lewis (1940-2020) who wrote, “My fellow Americans, this is a special moment in our history. Just as people of all faiths and no faiths, and all backgrounds, creeds, and colors banded together decades ago to fight for equality and justice in a peaceful, orderly, non-violent fashion, we must do so again.” His powerful words are a reminder for all of us - present and future generations to stay hopeful, proactive, and resilient in our collective efforts to end racial discrimination and foster a true democracy.

In this spirit, Stamps Gallery invited the undergraduate and graduate students at Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design, to design posters and make videos to respond and contemplate what each of us can do to build a stronger community, one that is based on the values of racial equality, justice and belonging. How can we acknowledge our own biases, learn from each other, and listen to the voices of those that have been silenced? We are at a pivotal moment in our history as the pandemic radically transforms everyday life. Through this exhibition Stamps Gallery asks the UM community to come together as artists and audiences and envision models for inclusion that are grounded in equality, belonging and empathy.

Respond/ Resist/ Rethink: A Stamps Student Poster & Video Exhibition includes work by Emily Albright, Adriana Alcala, Nathan Byrne, David Forsee, Eloise Jansenn, Rey Jeong, Sohyun Lim, Anika Love, Maggie McConnell, Willian Minzer, Judah Premble, Casey Rheault, Natalia Rocafuerte, Jenna Scheen, Ellie Schmidt, Abigail Seguin, LaKyla Thomas, Elijah Thompson, Benjamin Winans, and Molly Wu.

Artwork was selected through an open call by a committee of Stamps faculty, students, and staff including Nicholas Dowgwillo, Eloise Janssen, Keesa V. Johnson, Francis Nunoo-Quarcoo, Endi Poskovic, Destini Riley, and Stamps Gallery.

Other:Winter 2021 Term in Freiburg
2020-09-15 23:59 | Off Campus Location
Due to Fall 2020 public health disruptions, the Academic Year in Freiburg (AYF) program is offering a special Winter-only term, running from March 1 to August 6, 2021.

By studying in Freiburg, you can practically earn credits for a German major and may possibly get distribution credits and/or credits towards a second major; and you will live in one of the most attractive and desired places in Germany. This program is open to all University of Michigan undergraduate students.

Eligibility:
* Minimum 3.0 GPA
* Good academic standing
* Sophomore, Junior, or Senior standing by Winter 2021
* Completion of German 232 or equivalent prior to January 2021

Tuition for this program is covered by a program fee ($9,000), and students receive University of Michigan in-residence credit for the courses they take during the term in Freiburg. Students will not pay University of Michigan tuition. Additional costs include travel, room, and board. The latter two are considerably cheaper than housing in Ann Arbor is. You will live in a single in a student dorm in Freiburg.

Students remain eligible for financial aid. In addition, the German Department will reduce the program fee for all applicants. Further funding opportunities are available from the department as well; to inquire, please contact germandept@umich.edu.

Other:Winter 2021 Term in Tübingen
2020-09-15 23:59 | Off Campus Location
Beat the cold Michigan winters and study abroad somewhere else next year. The Tübingen program, which is organized through the Center for Global and Intercultural Studies (CGIS), takes place in the Winter term, and it is intended for students who have completed at least German 221/231 by the end of the Fall 2020 term.

The German department strongly recommends that you precede your stay in Tübingen by attending one or two four-week sessions at the Goethe Institut. This Goethe Institut segment is not part of the CGIS program itself. Please talk with an undergraduate advisor in German about the Goethe segment.

The CGIS portion in Tübingen will start early in March with a mandatory "Kompaktkurs" (6 credits) or a "Startkurs" (3 credits). While you will be enrolled for the Winter 2021 term at the University of Michigan, you will then take classes during "Sommersemester" at the Universität Tübingen (mid April - late July). You will earn 15-18 credits for Winter 2021: the courses that you take in Tübingen can be language courses for international students or regular university courses. Various university courses outside the English Department are taught in English.

Tübingen credits can be used to satisfy degree requirements for a German major or minor.

Please note that you must attend a First Step session in order to study abroad with CGIS (https://lsa.umich.edu/cgis/undergraduate-students/getting-started0.html).
