SUMMARY:Mechanical Properties of Free Standing Pigmented Coating  Layers with Latex and Starch as Binder: Bending\, Tensile and  Picking Properties
DESCRIPTION:The School of Forest Resources presents SFR 695 Graduate Seminar \nPresenter: Mohammad Hashemi N. \nAdvisors: Dr. Mehdi Tajvidi – Dr. Douglas Bousfield \nMechanical Properties of Free Standing Pigmented Coating Layers with Latex and Starch as Binder: Bending\, Tensile and Picking Properties \nPaper and paperboards are often coated to improve some properties required in the final product such as optical properties and print quality. The coated paper or paperboard will be subject to different mechanical stresses such as tension during printing and bending during folding. The mechanical properties of coating layers is important to understand in order to optimize the system. Coated paper is a combination of paper and a coating layer. Therefore\, knowing the properties of each layer should help to predict the final product performance. In this study the mechanical properties of free standing coatings layers were characterized. Free standing films with two types of binder formulations\, pure latex and latex-starch\, with different contents were prepared through an innovative film forming method. \nAll are welcome!

SUMMARY:Summer is Coming: Bigger and Warmer Than Ever - School of Marine Sciences Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Summer is Coming: Bigger and Warmer Than Ever\nRecent SST Trends and Phenology Shifts on the US Northeast Continental Shelf\nDr. Andrew Thomas\nProfessor of Oceanography\nSchool of Marine Sciences\nUMaine\nSatellite sea surface temperature (SST) data are used to quantify and map regional differences in trends of SST and SST phenology on\nthe northeast North American continental shelf\, an area of globally extreme positive SST trends. Strongest trends are over the Scotian\nShelf and the Gulf of Maine with weaker trends over the inner Mid-Atlantic Bight. There is a strong seasonal bias in when these SST\ntrends occur: winter trends are relatively weak and even negative\, and summer trends are strongest. These seasonal biases create shifts\nin many metrics of timing (phenology) within the SST seasonal cycle. One of the strongest phenology trends shows the duration of the\nsummer warm period increasing by > 2 days year-1 in the Gulf of Maine. \nPolycom availability with Darling Marine Center\, Gulf of Maine Research Institute\, and Bigelow Laboratories \nHost: Lee Karp-­Boss

SUMMARY:Oceanography of The Gulf of Maine: Variability and relationships among water masses\, red tides\, nutrients and acidification
DESCRIPTION:Polycom availability with Darling Marine Center\, Gulf of Maine Research Institute\, and Bigelow Laboratories. \nDavid W. Townsend\nProfessor of Oceanography\nUMaine School of Marine Sciences\nHost: Emmanuel Boss \nThis talk will begin as a general overview of how the Gulf of Maine works in an oceanographic sense. But at the outset\, I will show examples of some observations and ideas that have popped up in recent years which suggest the oceanography of the Gulf may be changing\, and/or undergoing highly variable shifts in its properties ─ changes that are forcing us to rethink some of our most basic ideas about the workings of the Gulf. First described by Henry Bryant Bigelow a century ago\, we all are generally aware\, or have been told\, that the Gulf is biologically productive ─ and it is\, owing to the combined effects of features and processes that are fairly unique to the Gulf of Maine. In the simplest sense\, the Gulf can be viewed as a shallow (average depth ca. 150m) semi-enclosed\, continental shelf sea\, which forms a cul-de-sac along the coastline of eastern North America. More importantly\, the Gulf is situated adjacent to a confluence of major ocean currents just offshore: where cold waters from the north meet warm waters from the south. The Gulf’s interior waters\, however\, are partially isolated from free exchanges with those offshore waters by shallow banks along the Gulf’s shelf edge. Nonetheless\, the Gulf of Maine is a dynamic flow-through system driven by variable influxes oft hose different water masses from outside the Gulf ─ water masses that provide both salt and fresh water\, nutrients\, and which influence the Gulf’s heat budget. Once in the Gulf\, those imported water masses are diluted some by rivers (although the main supply of fresh water is from outside the Gulf)\, and are vertically mixed: They are mixed year round by the Gulf’s large tides (in some areas)\, and everywhere by winter convection\, which bring nutrient-rich waters into sunlit surface layers\, this stimulating biological production. It is principally the resulting density contrasts of its different water masses that drive the Gulf’s complex residual circulation. Woven into this rough sketch of the Gulf of Maine will be ideas based on some of my own research interests\, including: Ideas about the causes of redtides; Why they and other oceanographic features may be changing\, and/or varying significantly among years; Some ideas about why the Gulf may be warming at such an alarming rate\, and; Why we need to pay closer attention to ocean acidification. \n

SUMMARY:Fossil lizards tell tales: Resurrecting the past to forecast the future
DESCRIPTION:School of Biology and Ecology Seminar\nSpring 2017 \npresents \nDr. Melissa Kemp\, Harvard University \n(Host: Allison Gardner) \nFossil lizards tell tales: Resurrecting the past to forecast the future \nDr Melissa Kemp is an evolutionary biologist who uses the fossil record and historical data to investigate species responses to global change phenomena. She earned her B.A. in biology from Williams College in 2010 and her Ph.D. in biology from Stanford University in 2015. She is currently a Center for the Environment and NSF Postdoctoral Fellow at Harvard University\, where she is investigating how past global change forces have altered species distributions and abundances for Caribbean lizards. This research will reveal population trajectories before\, during\, and after environmental perturbations are encountered\, and provide a framework for evaluating future range shifts and population fluctuations.  Melissa is also committed to science mentoring and regularly involves high school and undergraduate students in the execution of her research objectives. \nSeminars will be held on Fridays at 3:15 pm in 107 Norman Smith Hall\, unless otherwise noted. \nLight refreshments served at 3:00 p.m.
