Contact support [help.webex.com] . ABSTRACT Physical environments are changing globally due to anthropogenic impacts which have the potential to alter ecological interactions. To understand how ecological interactions are changing, long-term datasets are necessary to document ecological baselines from the past that are comparable to current ecological conditions. Compound-specific stable isotope analysis (CSIA) of amino acids can be used as a useful chemical tracer for retrospective analyses which can elucidate changes in biogeochemistry and trophic interactions that influence food webs. Here, we apply CSIA to museum skull specimens from two species of pinnipeds in the northeast Pacific, harbor seals (Phoca vitulina) and Steller sea lions (Eumetopias jubatus), to evaluate ecological responses to physical conditions in the northeast Pacific. Altogether, this work shows CSIA is a useful tracer for elucidating long-term physical forcing mechanisms on food webs and changes in food web structure through time as indicated by top predator trophic position. BIOGRAPHY Megan is a climate ecologist, data scientist, and graphic designer. Currently she is a postdoctoral researcher at University of Alaska Fairbanks in the Cunningham Lab working on climate drivers of Chinook salmon population dynamics in the Arctic/Yukon/Kuskokwim region. Previously, Megan was a Ph.D candidate in the Holtgrieve Ecosystem Ecology Lab where she earned her degree in Aquatic and Fishery Sciences with a certificate in Data Science through the UW eScience Institute. Her dissertation research used compound specific stable isotope analysis of amino acids to understand changes in primary productivity and foraging ecology of pinnipeds in the northeast Pacific using museum skull specimens. She also investigated the impacts of salmon derived nutrients on riparian soil nitrogen cycling. Megan was a NMFS-Sea Grant Population Dynamics and Ecosystem Fellow and Washington Sea Grant Fellow.

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Hello PCC, In case you missed this announcement in early September, here it is again! Three Requests for Proposals (RFP's), made possible by the generous support of Bill Calvin and Katherine Graubard, are attached to this email and can be found from the PCC website here . Best, Miriam _____________________________________________________ The PCC announces 3 new funding opportunities for climate science advancement, available to a wide range of the PCC community: The Climate Science Research Acceleration Fund, PCC Climate Solutions Projects, and The Graubard Fellowship in the Program on Climate Change. These funding opportunities are meant to help students, researchers, and faculty conduct climate science research, apply their findings, and enhance expertise inside and outside of academia. Each is briefly described below with detail in the attached documents. Many thanks to Bill Calvin and Katherine Graubard for their generous support of the Program on Climate Change. 1.The Program on Climate Change (PCC) announces a new graduate fellowship opportunity to begin in winter quarter 2023. *The Graubard Fellowship in the Program on Climate Change*, funded by Katherine Graubard and William Calvin, will support at least three students working on climate science research broadly defined towards a Ph.D. degree. Proposals for 3-12 months of support (0.5 FTE) will be considered. APPLICATION DEADLINE: November 1, 2022. (see attached for details) 2. *Climate Science Research Acceleration Fund.* The Program on Climate Change (PCC) is requesting proposal submissions from faculty and research scientists for climate-related research projects that accelerate climate research at the UW. Funding can be used (e.g.) ? for startup research projects aimed at leveraging research grants ? for side-projects or interesting new directions resulting from projects currently funded by external sources ? to fund lecturer visits by prominent scientists of broad interest to the UW climate community? to fund mini conferences on an interdisciplinary topic. (see attached for deadlines and details) 3. The PCC is accepting proposals from graduate students for ?*PCC* *Climate Solutions Projects*? that help them gain experience outside academia while applying their climate-science knowledge to solutions-based projects, capstone programs, and outreach efforts with community organizations and partners.

[futurewise.salsalabs.org] Futurewise [futurewise.org] is looking for volunteers for the upcoming launch of our upcoming 2023 campaign! Futurewise works throughout Washington state to encourage healthy, equitable and opportunity-rich communities, and to protect our most valuable farmlands, forests and water resources through wise land use policies and practices. Last year we worked to pass laws to prevent urban sprawl, address income and racial-based housing discrimination, and more. This year, we?re working to increase affordable housing, improve public transit, and add climate change commitments to city development. In order to do this, we need to show Washington?s leaders that we care about living in an equitable and affordable future. We?ll do this through sending hundreds of emails, getting covered by the media, and lobbying elected officials in Olympia, virtually and in-person. But we need your help! [futurewise.salsalabs.org] Whether you?ve been involved on a local level before or not, we?re looking for passionate volunteers to help out and learn skills needed to be an effective activist.
