A Global Analysis of Water-Related Terrorism
February 13, 2019 | 1:00-2:00PM EST | Q&A for last 15 minutes
Speakers: Jennifer Veilleux, and Shlomi Dinar, Florida International University
This webinar offers methods to codify types of water-related terrorism and quantify events using the University of Maryland’s Global Terrorism Database, which contains descriptive incidents of terrorism from 1970-2016. Our collective analysis can help to 1) identify the number and type of global water-related terrorism incidents between 1970-2016; 2) describe spatial and temporal trends of those incidents; and 3) provide decision-makers information regarding water-related terrorism targets and risks associated when terrorist organizations strike these targets.
PDH credit available.

Report: Role of Water Stress in Instability & Conflict
Date: April 11, 2018
Speaker: Brigadier General Gerald Galloway, Glenn L. Martin Institute Professor of Engineering, Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering & Affiliate Professor, School of Public Policy, University of Maryland
General Galloway discusses “The Role of Water Stress in Instability and Conflict,” a report by CNA's Military Advisory Board (MAB), which examines the role of water across a spectrum from civil unrest and localized violence to terrorism, insurgencies and civil wars. Focusing on water-stressed areas of the world, it articulates the role water plays not only in diplomacy, violence and conflict, but also how water can be used as a tool of coercion across the spectrum of conflict.

Preparing for a Climate with More Extremes
Preparing for a Climate with more Extremes - Results from California's Fourth Climate Change Assessment
April 10, 2019 | 1:00-2:00PM EST | Q&A for last 15 minutes
Speaker: Dan Cayan, Scripps Institution of Oceanography, University of California, San Diego
Climate models suggest that as climate warms over future decades, California's precipitation regime will become even more volatile, wherein the region takes on an even stronger vulnerability to a "boom and bust" water supply and occasionally heavy flood hazard. In this talk, using evidence presented in the recent California Fourth Climate Change Assessment, we will survey possible changes to California's hydroclimate and discuss some of its implications.

The Art of Good Science Communication
May 15, 2019 | 1:00-2:00PM EST | Q&A for last 15 minutes
The Art of Good Science Communication
Speaker: Steven Sobieszczyk, Science & Communications, U.S.Geological Survey
Learning about effective communication is easy. Actually following through and communicating effectively...well, not so much. Scientists are brilliant and attentive people but they seem to stumble on the simple nuances of how most people talk day-to-day. Talking science to others doesn't need to be discouraging or devolve to "dumbing down your research." It's about being wise. Being selective. It's about putting yourself in their shoes. Be clear, concise, and a bit irreverent. Now sit back and enjoy, here's some simple advice for talking science clearly.

A Collaborative Web Resource for Downscaled CMIP3 and CMIP5
Date: July 11, 2018
Speaker: Kenneth Nowak, Bureau of Reclamation Research and Development Office
This is an overview of a collaborative archive that serves downscaled CMIP3 and CMIP5 climate and hydrology projections. The archive contains fine spatial resolution translations of climate projections over the contiguous United States developed using three downscaling techniques (monthly BCSD, daily BCCA, and daily LOCA), CMIP3 hydrologic projections over the western United States and CMIP5 hydrology projections over the contiguous United States. It also offers a variety of options for data subset selection, as well as documentation and release notes for each dataset.
