DESCRIPTION:Dr. Jennifer Baka\, an associate professor of geography and an
  associate at the Earth and Environmental Systems Institute at Penn State
 \, will speak at the first spring 2024 installment of the Environmental I
 nstitutions Seminar Series presented by the Nicholas Institute for Energy
 \, Environment & Sustainability and the University Program in Environment
 al Policy (UPEP). Students\, faculty\, and staff at Duke and other Triang
 le-area universities are invited to attend this in-person event (no virtu
 al viewing option).\n\nAbstract\n\nThis paper presents a political-indust
 rial ecology analysis of an emerging petrochemical corridor in Appalachia
 . Political-industrial ecology is a nascent field of geography that embed
 s resource metabolisms within their broader political economic contexts. 
 Baka advances the field by evaluating how resource metabolisms and govern
 ance processes interconnect to shape nature-society relations.\n\nWithin 
 Appalachia\, various ethane "cracker" plants are under construction\, or 
 are being permitted\, to transform ethane byproducts from hydraulically f
 ractured shale gas in the Marcellus and Utica shales into plastics. The p
 olitical-industrial ecology analysis links these developments in the form
 er steel belt to the growing environmental burdens of plastics\, highligh
 ting how record state subsidies are facilitating these linkages.\n\nFurth
 er\, the systems perspective afforded by a political-industrial ecology v
 iew reveals three notable findings. First\, the footprint of the corridor
  extends well beyond the Ohio River Valley to Canada\, the US Gulf Coast\
 , and international markets in Europe and Asia. Second\, the corridor is 
 a significant step toward establishing more globally integrated markets f
 or ethane and natural gas. Third\, the analysis illustrates the myriad of
  environmental systems and communities interlinked through the corridor\,
  which can serve as a roadmap for facilitating cumulative impact analysis
 \, a key gap in environmental impact and justice scholarship.\n\nThe Envi
 ronmental Institutions Seminar Series is presented by the Nicholas Instit
 ute for Energy\, Environment & Sustainability and the University Program 
 in Environmental Policy\, a doctoral degree program jointly offered by th
 e Nicholas School of the Environment and Sanford School of Public Policy 
 at Duke University.

DESCRIPTION:Artificial intelligence (AI) is quickly transforming scientifi
 c analysis in various disciplines. This in-person session is led by Henry
  Sun\, an undergraduate senior at Duke researching the use of generative 
 AI to improve automated whale detection capabilities. This 1-hour session
  will cover foundational concepts in AI\, examine and interpret different
  AI-based methods being applied towards various marine systems and resear
 ch questions\, and provide a brief demonstration of how to implement AI a
 nd machine learning-based approaches on a sample dataset. Slides and reso
 urces from the session will be made available afterwards.
