SUMMARY:Dr. Christopher Burns: Permafrost science heats up: understanding and preparing for change in northern landscapes | L’étude du pergélisol s’active : comprendre les changements au paysage nordique et s’y préparer
DESCRIPTION:Chistopher Burn\, Carleton University \nThursday February 4\, 2016 \nClimate change is the talk of the town these days. Not a day goes by without news about its effects. Much attention focuses on the potential release of organic carbon as frozen ground melts. In Canada\, where a third of the country is underlain by permafrost\, the stability of soils is an urgent concern. Chris Burn is working to identify the elements of these ancient Ice Age landscapes that are most vulnerable to melting. His goal is to identify engineering design and management practices that can keep northern infrastructure secure as the ground literally subsides beneath it. Dr. Christopher Burn\, a professor in the Department of Geography and Environmental Studies at Carleton University\, has won national and international awards for excellence in understanding the permafrost environment and the history of human relationship with the land in the western Arctic. From 2002-2012\, he was NSERC’s Northern Research Chair in Permafrost in the Yukon and Northwest Territories. His contributions have been made in partnership with a wide range of organizations including many local Indigenous agencies. \n  \n\n\n\n\nChristopher Burn\, Carleton University \nJeudi\, le 4 février 2016

SUMMARY:Dr. Ted Sargent: Trees do it. Ferns do it. Why can't PhD's do it? Bio-inspired solar energy | Capter la lumière à la manière des plantes L’énergie solaire bio-inspirée
DESCRIPTION:Ted Sargent\, University of Toronto \n\n\n\n\nThursday February 26\, 2015 \nHumankind consumes electrical power at an average annual rate of 15 Terawatts (trillions watts). We meet this demand primarily by burning CO2-emitting stored fossil fuels. Meanwhile\, the world’s trees\, bacteria\, and algae capture ten times that amount of power from the sun through the process of photosynthesis. Dr. Ted Sargent works with researchers in the physical and plant sciences and with engineers to understand Nature’s ways and find methods to capture and store solar energy as efficiently as Nature does. Ted Sargent holds the Canada Research Chair in Nanotechnology at the University of Toronto\, where he also serves as Vice Dean for Research for the Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada (FRSC)\, Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science\, and Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Engineering (FCAE) for his contributions to the development of solar cells and light sensors based on solution-processed semiconductors. He is the founder and CTO of InVisage Technologies and of Xagenic Inc.\, both University of Toronto spin-offs. \nTed Sargent\, University of Toronto \nJeudi\, le 26 février 2015 \nLes humains consomment l’énergie électrique au taux annuel moyen de 15 térawatts (ou mille milliards de watts). On répond à cette demande principalement en brûlant des carburants fossiles qui émettent du dioxyde de carbone (CO2). Pendant ce temps\, les arbres\, les bactéries et les algues de la planète arrivent à capter dix fois plus d’énergie du soleil grâce à la photosynthèse. Ted Sargent collabore avec des chercheurs en sciences physiques et en phytologie\, ainsi qu’avec des ingénieurs\, afin de comprendre le fonctionnement de la nature et de trouver des moyens de capter et de stocker l’énergie solaire aussi efficacement que le fait la nature. Ted Sargent est titulaire de la Chaire de recherche du Canada en nanotechnologie à la University of Toronto\, où il occupe également le poste de vice-doyen à la recherche de la Faculté des sciences appliquées et du génie. Il a été élu membre de la Société royale du Canada et de l’American Association for the Advancement of Science et membre de l’Académie canadienne de génie pour sa contribution au développement de cellules solaires et de photodétecteurs basés sur des semiconducteurs traités en solution. Il est fondateur et dirigeant principal de la technologie de deux entreprises dérivées de la University of Toronto\, soit InVisage Technologies et Xagenic Inc.
