Computational Methods in Water Resources (CMWR) XVII International Conference1 min read

by ESD News and Events on July 6, 2008

Events

July 6-10, 2008 The XVII International Conference on Computational Methods in Water Resources (CMWR 2008) will be a forum for the dissemination of the latest ideas in the development and application of advanced computational techniques to problems in water resources and related fields, including surface and subsurface hydrology, petroleum exploration, contaminant remediation, carbon sequestration, ecohydrology, climate change, nuclear waste storage, and associated chemical and biological processes. The organizers welcome submissions that either directly involve such computations for water resources problems or that present concepts relevant to such computations. This conference continues the tradition of the 16 previous biennial meetings held in North America and Europe. Building on the success of the CMWR XVI International Conference, CMWR 2008 will involve four days of regular and special sessions organized to address recurring, emerging, and crosscutting themes in the broader areas of computations and water resources. Several keynote speakers will highlight the sessions. Read more »

EESA Climate Experts Co-Author Study Predicting 100% Increase in Arctic Lightning2 min read

April 5, 2021

EESA climate scientists contributed to the stunning discovery that lightning strikes will increase by 100% this century above the Arctic Circle, where lightning is practically unheard of, due to climate warming. A paper published today in the journal Nature Climate Change describes how such an increase in lightning will drive further warming and wildfires across…

EESA Participates in International HotBENT Project1 min read

March 29, 2021

The alteration of bentonite buffer under high temperature is a critical research question for the disposal of high-level radioactive waste. Researchers at Berkeley Lab have actively participated with international colleagues in the “HotBENT” project, the centerpiece of which is long-term evaluation of bentonite buffer heated at 175-200 oC at the Grimsel Test Site in Switzerland.…

Study Finds Natural Organic Carbon Source Fuels Growth of Diverse, Distinct Bacteria from Groundwater1 min read

March 25, 2021

  Xiaoqin Wu, Sara Gushgari-Doyle, and Mon Oo Yee from Romy Chakraborty’s group in EESA’s Ecology Department and the Department of Biological Engineering at MIT have published a paper in the journal Frontiers in Microbiology describing a study they hope will advance cultivation and isolation strategies for recovering diverse, uncultivable, and novel microorganisms from Earth’s…

Nigel Quinn Receives ASCE’s Highest Honor1 min read

Nigel Quinn leads the HydroEcological Engineering Advanced Decision Support research group (HEADS) which specializes in the development of environmental decision support systems to improve understanding and find solutions to complex water resources and water quality problems in California and worldwide. In January, Nigel was awarded life membership in the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE). This…
