SUMMARY:Adaptive management: So you say it’s a key to resilience?
DESCRIPTION:Many scholars have called for a paradigm shift in fisheries governance away from management approaches that require definitive information about stock size and dynamics to those that build social-ecological resilience. In this rapidly growing body of research\, adaptability is routinely described as one of a short list of mechanisms\, along with modularity\, diversity\, and transformability\, that cultivate resilience and buffer systems against social and ecological disturbances. However\, while many advocate for adaptability (defined as the capacity of actors to test and revise a system through a dynamic and ongoing process by way of trial and error)\, the basic assertion that adaptability increases resilience has been largely taken as a given. In this presentation\, I draw on multiple data sources and methods to examine the history\, evolution\, and current status of multiple institutions in Maine\, and illustrate how the process of continually modifying the management system by way of trial and error has decreased the resilience of fisheries in Maine. With this analysis I show how the layering of a series of well-intended but myopic species-specific management decisions have affected the general social resilience of the fishing fleet in Maine over a quarter century\, whereby bringing increased attention to the complex interplay between adaptability and resilience. \nJoshua Stoll is a Ph.D. candidate in the School of Marine Sciences at the University of Maine and a Robert and Patricia Switzer Fellow. His current research focuses on the transition towards ecosystem-based fisheries management in the Gulf of Maine and how different social institutions are impeding (and/or enabling) this change. More broadly\, his work seeks to address pressing questions about the interplay between coupled social and ecological systems with the purpose of contributing to the long-term sustainability of our oceans and the communities that depend upon them. Stoll has been engaged in fisheries-related issues for a decade\, working in multiple regions and across a wide spectrum of sectors. Most recently\, he worked for the directorate of the National Marine Fisheries Service where he gained exposure to the federal policymaking process. Stoll is a co-founder of LocalCatch.org\, an international network of small-scale fishers and community-based organizations committed to providing local\, healthful\, low-impact seafood via community supported fisheries and direct marketing arrangements. He holds a bachelor’s degree in environmental studies from Bates College and a master’s degree in coastal environmental management from Duke University.

SUMMARY:Community solar: Harnessing the power of the people
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Sharon Klein\, assistant professor\, School of Economics\, University of Maine \n“Community energy” is a growing movement in the US and around the world. People are adopting sustainable energy technologies and strategies (renewable energy\, energy efficiency\, conservation) in groups and/or on shared property\, in contrast to traditional individualistic adoption. What is motivating this group adoption? What are the different ways community energy is being implemented? What benefits and challenges are associated with these different implementation methods? How can this “power of the people” be harnessed to achieve a more sustainable energy system? These overarching questions drive this research\, which focuses on community solar as a subset of the larger community energy movement. This presentation will include an overview of the types of community solar projects currently being implemented across the United States\, including results from a new national database of nearly 6\,000 community solar projects. In addition\, Klein will present the results of a survey of participants in five main types of community solar projects (Solarize\, solar farms\, municipal solar\, solar schools and nonprofit solar) in Maine\, Massachusetts\, and Vermont\, conducted summer 2015. The overall goal of this research is to understand the benefits and challenges of the growing US community solar movement and how it can be harnessed to help advance a more sustainable energy system. \nSharon Klein has been an assistant professor in the School of Economics at the University of Maine since 2011. She has a Ph.D. in engineering and public policy from Carnegie Mellon University\, and a B.S. in environmental science from the University of Massachusetts\, Amherst. She has 5 years of experience as a secondary school science teacher (San Diego and Ecuador)\, as well as experience as an environmental technician and Americorps volunteer. Klein is an interdisciplinary energy researcher and educator\, engaging students\, citizens\, policy-makers and other stakeholders in understanding energy issues and making more sustainable choices. Her motivation for working in this area stems from the knowledge that the way we currently use energy has long-lasting and unsustainable environmental and social consequences\, coupled with the long-held belief that people have the power to create a better world through civic engagement\, grassroots action\, community-building\, and education. Her research has focused on utility-scale\, residential\, and community solar\, as well as biofuels\, offshore wind energy and other renewable and non-renewable power plants\, using diverse methods such as engineering-economic assessment\, life cycle assessment\, social benefit-cost analysis\, and multicriteria decision analysis.
