SUMMARY:(REWI Webinar Series) Compensatory Migration: Thinking Outside the Box
DESCRIPTION:Compensatory Mitigation: Thinking Outside the Box \nWednesday\, November 1st\, 2023 \n2:00-3:00PM CDT \nRegister here! \nNote: This is the final webinar in a four-part series co-hosted by the Renewable Wildlife Energy Institute (REWI) and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). Click the above link to learn more. \nn some cases\, alternatives to traditional compensation measures may provide significant conservation value. Examples include conservation actions that occur outside the region of the potential impact and funding research as a means of compensation. This webinar will explore outside-the-box ideas\, examples of successful compensation alternatives\, and situations in which innovative conservation actions may be necessary. Expert stakeholders will discuss the tradeoffs of implementing alternative compensation measures and when these may or may not be appropriate. \nModerator: Shilo Felton\, REWI \nSpeakers:  \n\nMatt Palombo (New York Department of Environmental Conservation)\nGoni Iskali (Apex Clean Energy)\nJérôme Lemaître (Government of Quebec\, Ministère des Forêts\, de la Faune et des Parcs)\nTaber Allison (Renewable Energy Wildlife Institute)

SUMMARY:2023 Natural Areas Conference (VIRTUAL)
DESCRIPTION:2023 Natural Areas Conference: The Power of Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER): Informing Natural Areas Management \nNovember 2\, 2023\, 10:00AM-3:30PM CDT \nRegister here! \nThe National Science Foundation (NSF) Long Term Ecological Research Program (LTER) was established in 1980 to address ecological questions that cannot be resolved with short-term observations or experiments\, emphasizing the study of ecological phenomena over long periods of time. \nLong-term studies are essential to achieve an integrated understanding of how populations\, natural communities and other components of ecosystems interact and are affected by management techniques and climate change. Getting this valuable science and research findings into the hands of those that can positively affect the conservation of critically important landscapes with an eye towards climate resilience are mutual goals of the National Science Foundation and the Natural Areas Association. \nNAA\, in partnership with the LTER Network\, will highlight the important research being done within the LTER network that informs the practices of our land management audience from around North America. LTER researchers will convey the findings of their studies that inform on-the-ground management decisions that affect biodiversity conservation and ecological health in the systems in which natural areas practitioners work. \nThe conference will feature LTER representatives from the following ecosystems: \n\nPrairies & Grasslands\nForests\nCoastal Regions\nLacustrine/Riverine\, and\nDrylands\n\n  \n

SUMMARY:WEBINAR: UC Davis Wild Energy Center - Impacts of Floating Photovoltaic Solar Energy on Water Bodies
DESCRIPTION:Impacts of Floating Photovoltaic Solar Energy on Water Bodies \nFriday\, November 10\, 2023 \n5:00PM – 6:30PM CST \nRegister now! \nYou can also attend this talk in-person in Room 3001 in UC Davis\’s Plant and Environmental Sciences Building (PES). \nAlex Cagle is a Ph.D. Candidate in the Energy Graduate Group at UC Davis and the Wild Energy Center. \nDuring this talk\, Alex will discuss his empirical research on the impacts of floating solar PV installations (FPV) on host water bodies’ thermal dynamics and water quality parameters. Over the course of his Ph.D. research\, Alex spent hundreds of hours on FPVs across the United States to better understand how this renewable energy technology impacts the local environment. \nThe first portion of the talk describes impacts of FPVs on host water body temperature and dissolved oxygen. Specifically\, this work evaluates how shading conferred by FPVs alters diel and seasonal heating of host water bodies and how this shading may impact biological processes. The second portion of this talk will discuss in-situ impacts of FPVs on major water quality parameters and algae indicators. This body of research explains how FPVs alter algae growth beneath the array versus in open areas of the same water body. These two projects\, comprising the last two chapters of his Ph.D.\, provide insight into how this unique form of solar energy may benefit local environments while advancing the transition to a zero- emission electric sector. \nAlex Cagle has been published in Frontiers in Sustainability\, Sustainability\, and Environmental Science & Technology\, among other journals\, and was selected for the American Geophysical Union’s Voices for Science Program. \n

SUMMARY:2023 Solar Power and Wildlife/Natural Resources Symposium
DESCRIPTION:2023 Solar Power and Wildlife/Natural Resources Symposium \nNovember 14-16\, 2023 \nNorfolk\, VA (Virtual attendance option available) \nRegistration is now open! \nIt’s estimated that solar power will grow up to five-fold in the next decade. Solar developers and others working to advance renewable energy recognize that along with successful commercialization\, sustainable development requires investment into understanding and minimizing risk from the interactions between solar energy facilities\, wildlife\, and natural resources. \nThe Solar Symposium convenes stakeholders from academia\, industry\, the conservation sector\, and public agencies to review the state of the science and identify research gaps and priority questions. \nMeeting Topics \nThe Symposium identifies key concepts around balancing conservation and a rapidly growing solar market\, and highlight what we know and emerging topics/questions related to: \nEvaluating and Mitigating Impacts on Wildlife and Their Habitats\nLand Management and Wildlife Compatibility\nWater Resource Management\nSolar Life-Cycle and Natural Resource Considerations \nThis meeting is organized and presented by REWI in consultation with a Planning Committee comprising representatives from the solar industry\, environmental and conservation non-governmental organizations\, state and federal agencies\, and subject matter experts. To learn more about the inaugural Symposium\, held in 2021\, see the Proceedings. \nThe 2023 Symposium will be a hybrid event\, with registrants able to attend in-person or virtually. All meeting sessions will be live broadcast for virtual attendees\, and on-demand presentations and posters will be available to view on the online meeting platform.
