SUMMARY:DIY Water Monitoring\, Data Portals\, and Watershed Modeling Workshop
DESCRIPTION:When: Tuesday\, September 10\, through Thursday\, September 12\, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day.Where: Stroud Water Research Center (map below)Registration deadlines: June 15 (early bird) | June 30 (regular) \n\n\n\nSponsored by: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis workshop will introduce participants to two internationally-utilized DIY programs in low-cost\, open-source water science: EnviroDIY.org and the OPEnS Lab Project Loom. The objective of the workshop is to expose participants to a range of options in DIY hardware\, software\, and prototyping systems\, thereby highlighting factors that users should consider when seeking a DIY program to their research. \n\n\n\nParticipants will build and deploy microcontrollers\, sensors\, and actuators and many commonly asked questions\, troubleshooting steps\, and diagnostic procedures will be covered in this hands-on curriculum. The sensor data collected by participants will be immediately available online\, thereby enabling a hands-on tutorial on data portals and visualization. Finally\, participants will be introduced to a variety of online data management software and hydrologic modeling programs. \n\n\n\nThis workshop will appeal to hydrologic researchers wanting 1) an introduction and hands-on tutorial to data logger programming in the Arduino environment; 2) advanced training on connecting\, programming\, and troubleshooting DIY data loggers and related water monitoring sensors; 3) an introduction to data portals and online tools for watershed and water quality modeling. No prior experience is needed\, but familiarity with Microsoft Excel is a must. \n\n\n\nInstructors: Shannon Hicks (Stroud Water Research Center)\, Chet Udell (Oregon State University)\, and David Arscott (Stroud Water Research Center)Facilitator/Organizer: Scott Ensign (Stroud Water Research Center)

SUMMARY:Perils of Plastic: 2019 Joan and Dick Stroud Memorial Lecture
DESCRIPTION:When: Sunday\, September 22. Doors open at 4 p.m. and lecture begins at 4:45.Where: The Meetinghouse at Stroud Water Research Center \n\n\n\nPremiere SponsorSponsor\n\n\n\nJoin as Sherri Mason\, Ph.D.\, of Penn State Behrend presents her lecture\, “Perils of Plastics.” The Heinz Family Foundation named Dr. Sherri Mason as the recipient of the prestigious 23rd Heinz Award in the Public Policy category. She is recognized for her groundbreaking research identifying the presence of microbeads and microfibers in fresh water\, and for raising awareness of the potential impact of microplastics and associated contaminants on the food chain and human health\, resulting in state\, federal and international policy change. \n\n\n\n\n“The world is an interconnected system. This is not just about aquatic animals; it is a significant concern to human health as well.” — Sherri Mason\, Ph.D. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHeld in memory of Joan and Dick Stroud\, co-founders of Stroud Water Research Center\, this lecture series allows us to share with our friends and the general public a special evening with speakers who will both enlighten and entertain — sharing their research and their perspectives on subjects from watershed ecology to conservation and more.
