SUMMARY:Happy Cows: Human-Environment Networks in Agriculture
DESCRIPTION:The 2024 Harold and Florence Mayer Lecture \nAgriculture is considered multifunctional when it produces standard commodity goods alongside a broader range of human and ecological services. The degree to which agriculture is successfully multifunctional owes much to feedback among individual decisions\, social institutions\, and environmental systems. We examine dairy farms to better understand how social relationships and biophysical dynamics interact to spur or hinder growth of multifunctional agriculture in Wisconsin\, Pennsylvania\, and New York. This work blends a variety of methods\, including social science surveys\, environmental field work\, and spatially-explicit modeling. This research advances our understanding of how social networks and ecosocial feedback affect the sustainable development of managed ecosystems. \nPresented by Steven Manson\, Professor in the Department of Geography\, Environment\, and Society at the University of Minnesota.

SUMMARY:Spatiotemporal analysis of lung cancer disparity in Wisconsin\, USA
DESCRIPTION:Thesis presentation of Mathew Ugwuanyi: Studies over the United States has shown that disparity still exists in lung cancer mortality. Such disparity has been greatly attributed to several risk factors such as genetics\, socio-economic status\, comorbidities\, amongst others. Primarily\, this study aims to examine spatiotemporal variation in lung cancer mortality rates in the State of Wisconsin\, U.S.A. The study also seeks to explore the relationship between socio-economic\, environmental variables and lung cancer mortality. For this study\, lung cancer mortality county level data from the United States Center for Disease Control (CDC) and\, the National Cancer Institute’s Surveillance\, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER)\, which is aggregated and age-adjusted according to the 2000 U.S standard million population were used. Also\, county level socio-economic data like education attainment\, median household income\, unemployment and PM 2.5 data were gathered from the American Community Survey (ACS) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) respectively. Scan statistics (SaTScan) will be used to analyze the spatiotemporal pattern of mortality clusters. In addition\, regression analysis will be used to assess statistical significance and measure the relationship between lung cancer mortality and county level socio-economic and environmental factors in Wisconsin. This study hopes to show potential cluster patterns in lung cancer mortality in the study area\, which might suggest uneven spatial temporal mortality risk. Also\, through findings\, we hope to suggest interventions to help ameliorate lung cancer mortality.

SUMMARY:Addressing lead exposure disparities in Milwaukee: An analysis of interventions\, effectiveness\, and equitable strategies
DESCRIPTION:Thesis presentation of Mark Miracle: This study investigates the negative health consequences linked to lead exposure\, with a specific focus on interventions implemented in Milwaukee. Emphasizing the heightened susceptibility of young children during organ development\, the research examines literature on sources of household lead exposure and the complex interplay of sociodemographic factors contributing to the risk of childhood lead poisoning. In the context of Milwaukee’s notable racial and socioeconomic disparities\, the study assesses the existing intervention strategies. Key considerations include their effectiveness\, alignment with racial residential segregation\, and their impact on vulnerable communities. The research also delves into the geographical placement of interventions concerning areas of exposure and the criteria used to determine their boundaries.

SUMMARY:Complementing Flood Insurance Rate Maps with Community Resilience Estimates Data in Milwaukee County
DESCRIPTION:Thesis presentation of Christopher Archuleta: Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) are primarily used for determining flood insurance rates and for determining which properties are required to have flood insurance under the National Flood Insurance Program. However\, they are also flood risk maps that can serve as risk communication tools. FIRMs have several sources of bias and inaccuracy. As a result\, their capacity to communicate flood risk is limited. FIRMs should be complemented with relevant datasets to ascertain a more holistic notion of risk. I propose to investigate the effectiveness of complementing FIRMs with Community Resilience Estimates Data from the US Census Bureau to communicate flood risk. To conduct this study\, National Flood Hazard Layer data and Community Resilience Estimates data will be combined in flood risk maps based on risk communication and cartography design principles. Surveys will then be administered to Milwaukee County residents to evaluate how successful these maps are at conveying the spatial distribution of flood risk and the contribution of social vulnerability to flood risk. The results from this study could show the potential of using FIRMs for more holistic flood risk communication purposes.

SUMMARY:Integrating social\, environmental and mobility factors in studying violence in the city of Chicago
DESCRIPTION:Dissertation proposal presentation of Matthias Schilli: Violence has been studied as a social and public health issue for a long time. We investigate the violence in the City of Chicago by integrating social\, environmental\, and mobility factors in spatial statistical models. The social determinants will be based on a large number of social variables. The environmental criminological factors will be based on the Points of Interest (POI) data that provides information on the density and proximity of human activity convergence. The human mobility pattern in the city will be considered. The spatial and temporal patterns of violence in the city will be studied first\, and then all the factors will be integrated into spatial statistical models to understand how they contribute to the violence variation in the city. It is expected that this study can contribute to a more integrative approach than the public health and spatial criminological approaches to violence prevention.

SUMMARY:Examining the urban microclimate effects on urban building energy uses in the city of Milwaukee
DESCRIPTION:Dissertation proposal presentation of Lulu Liu: Over-concentrated urban buildings and energy consumption have become one of the major reasons for the environmental deterioration in urban areas and can directly or indirectly cause urban microclimate changes. Energy consumption in urban areas has shown a rapid growth trend\, and reducing the intensity of energy consumption in urban areas has attracted the attention of many scholars. Examining the impact of different spatiotemporal climate factors on energy consumption from the perspective of urban microclimate and their spatial patterns may provide valuable policy implications on urban building energy consumption. This study has three primary goals\, including 1) estimating building energy consumption of the City of Milwaukee\, WI using historical and future weather data\, and verifying the accuracy of future energy demand predictions by comparing them to historical energy use data.; 2) examining the impact of microclimate factors on urban building energy consumption through correlation analysis and regression analysis on building and city scales; and 3) mapping future energy consumption demands over 30 years to visualize spatial and temporal differences.

SUMMARY:Exploring cryospheric and biotic responses to warming in the Novaya Zemlya Archipelago\, Russian High Arctic
DESCRIPTION:Dissertation proposal presentation of Dean Maraldo: The Arctic is warming faster than any other region of the world\, driving significant changes in terrestrial ecosystems and the cryosphere\, including changes in vegetation phenology and the loss of lake ice\, permafrost\, and glacier mass. However\, compared to other areas of the Arctic\, climate-related changes in the Novaya Zemlya Archipelago (“NZA”)\, in the Russian High Arctic\, are not well understood. The narrow archipelago is unique\, extending northward into the Arctic Ocean and separating the Barents Sea and the Kara Sea. As a result\, all glaciers and lakes in the archipelago have greater exposure to the warmer Arctic Ocean air in the summer\, compared to other major Arctic landmasses\, such as Greenland\, where glaciers and lakes are farther inland and insulated from warmer coastal air. Therefore\, I will investigate changes in the cryosphere and vegetation in the archipelago. Specifically\, the proposed dissertation will 1) construct the longest decadal chronology of glacier change in the NZA\, extending back to the 1950s; 2) develop the first lake inventory for the NZA and analyze spatial and temporal trends in lake ice phenology for benchmark lakes throughout the archipelago; and 3) establish the first vegetation phenology baseline for the NZA and evaluate long-term vegetation change trends since 2000. The findings from the research are expected to improve our understanding of relationships between warming and changes in the cryosphere and vegetation in NZA and contribute to the literature by providing other researchers with the baseline and historical proxy data necessary to validate large scale cryosphere change\, vegetation change\, and sea level rise models.

SUMMARY:Milwaukee: A City Built on Water with Milwaukee Historian John Gurda
DESCRIPTION:John Gurda is a Milwaukee-born writer and historian who has been studying his hometown since 1972. He is the author of twenty-two books\, including histories of Milwaukee-area neighborhoods\, industries\, and places of worship. Gurda’s most ambitious efforts are The Making of Milwaukee\, the first full-length history of the community published since 1948; and Milwaukee: City of Neighborhoods\, a geographic companion that has quickly become the standard work on grassroots Milwaukee. Together the books total more than 900 pages and feature 2\,000 illustrations. The Making of Milwaukee was the basis for an Emmy Award-winning documentary series that premiered on Milwaukee Public Television in 2006. \nIn addition to his work as an author\, Gurda is a lecturer\, tour guide\, and local history columnist for the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. His undergraduate degree is a BA in English from Boston College\, and he holds an MA in Cultural Geography and an honorary Ph.D. from the UWM. The common thread in all of Gurda’s work is an understanding of history as “why things are the way they are.” \nProfessor Charlie Paradis\, Department of Geosciences\, emcees and hosts.
