- First Annual UMaine Freshwater Science Symposium Jan 29, 2015 from 02:00 PM to 06:00 PM — Wells Conference Center, University of Maine, Orono, ME,
- The First Annual UMaine Freshwater Science Symposium will showcase freshwater research being conducted by UMaine faculty, staff and students within Maine and beyond. This half-day symposium will feature two poster sessions and two oral presentations by guest speakers. Dr. Bill McDowell from the University of New Hampshire will be the plenary speaker for this kick-‐off event. Dr. McDowell is the Director of the New Hampshire Water Resources Research Center, and has conducted research on carbon, nitrogen, natural disturbance, and human disturbance in remote and urban landscapes in temperate as well as tropical ecosystems. Dr. Dave Courtemanch, Freshwater Science and Policy Analyst for the Maine Chapter of The Nature Conservancy.
- United States Geological Survey
- The USGS serves the Nation by providing reliable scientific information to describe and understand the Earth; minimize loss of life and property from natural disasters; manage water, biological, energy, and mineral resources; and enhance and protect our quality of life.
- Study examines how climate change impacts contaminants and excess nutrients in the environment
- Rising temperatures, more intense storms, droughts, and sea level rise are changing the way contaminants and nutrients interact with the environment, and this may have serious consequences for ecosystems and organisms. How serious? In the Northeast, where some climate change predictions are worse than global averages, the severity is still largely unknown.
- Project to showcase scenario planning for climate change, boreal forest and moose
- The first phase of a scenario-planning project for wildlife management in Northeast boreal forests is underway, and includes the launch a monthly newsletter.

- Forest Change, Loss 2000-2012, Northeast
- This dataset represents forest loss during the period 2000-2012, defined as a stand-replacement disturbance, or a change from a forest to non-forest state, entirely within the study period, for the Northeast region including Canada. Data was encoded as either 1 (loss) or 0 (no loss). The Northeast data from the Global Forest Change dataset was acquired as 10x10 degree tiles, consisting of seven files per tile. All files contained unsigned 8-bit values and have a spatial resolution of 1 arc-second per pixel, or approximately 30 meters per pixel at the equator. The data was then mosaicked and clipped to the Northeast region including the North Atlantic LCC boundary in Canada. The data are results from a time-series analysis of 654,178 Landsat 7 ETM+ images in characterizing global forest extent and change from 2000 through 2012. For additional information about these results, please see the associated journal article (Hansen et al., Science 2013).
