- 11:00 AM1hMarine Sciences Seminar: Xingchen Tony WangXingchen Tony WangBoston CollegeOcean fertilization, carbon sequestration, and deoxygenation: From Miocene to Anthropocene Ocean fertilization, which aims to enhance primary productivity by introducing limiting nutrients (such as iron, nitrogen, or phosphorus) into nutrient-poor surface waters, is currently being explored as a technology for ocean-based carbon dioxide removal. However, the efficacy of this approach in sequestering carbon in the deep ocean remains uncertain. In addition, the increased export of organic matter to subsurface waters could exacerbate deoxygenation, potentially expanding 'dead zones' where fish and animals cannot survive. In this presentation, I will discuss several historical case studies that may shed light on these issues, including: (1) ocean phosphorus fertilization and the origins of the largest 'dead zones' in the eastern Pacific Ocean eight million years ago; (2) ocean iron fertilization during the Pleistocene ice ages and its impact on atmospheric carbon dioxide; and (3) anthropogenic nitrogen fertilization and its effects on 'dead zones' in the northern Gulf of Mexico.Host: Julie GrangerTime & Date: 11:00 am, Friday, October 25, 2024Place: Lowell Weicker Building, Seminar Room 103 (or WebEx)Request Seminar InformationCancellation & Additional Seminar Details (https://marinesciences.uconn.edu/seminar/seminar1248/) If you are an individual with a disability and need accommodations, please contact 860-405-9152 (tel:+18604059152) or email marinesciencesseminars@uconn.edu (mailto:marinesciencesseminars@uconn.edu).

- 12:00 PM45mTherapeutic YogaTherapeutic Yoga skillfully blends movement and breathwork, with a meditative focus for a full body practice that calms, nurtures, strengthens and opens one into flexibility of body and mind.Yogais protective and enlivening. Freeing you from habitual patterns of tension, this yoga creates a sense of spaciousness within, dissolves stress, strengthens core muscles, joint health, centeredness, postural alignment and groundedness, increases breath capacity and breath awareness, shifts stagnant emotions into movement and release, and is attentive to the subtle stuff of the mind, helping to free us from the driving forces of unconscious actions and thoughts. You'll practice yogic techniques that you can bring into your everyday experience for simply living a good day, and for increasing your capacity to be creatively present in your life. A yogic attitude toward self and practice is one of kindness, patience, and tenderness. We grow into our best selves in an inner atmosphere of loving care.

- 4:00 PM2hSEWing Circle: Dr. Arianna FalboTitle: Inquiry and Higher-Order Evidence Abstract: What is the epistemic significance of higher-order evidence? Recently, philosophers have defended zetetic approaches to higher-order evidence, which appeal to factors related to inquiry and deliberation. According to these views, in response to higher-order evidence – for example, when you find out that an epistemic peer or superior disagrees with you concerning the answer to a question – you should open inquiry and deliberate upon the question further. While it can often be productive to deliberate or to double-check one's reasoning when confronted with higher-order evidence, I argue that zetetic accounts are bound to be incomplete. They are unable to explain a range of important cases. Reflecting on these cases helps to make vivid a broader lesson concerning the relationship between inquiry and epistemic normativity. Epistemology never requires us to perform specific actions, such as evidence gathering, deliberation, or double-checking, even when these acts are required to settle the answers to our questions.
- 5:00 PM1hAll Recovery MeetingsAll Recovery Meetings are available for UConn students. The meetings are a gathering for all who struggle with substance use and/or other mental and behavioral health disorders. An All Recovery meeting is 'non-denominational' meaning all pathways of recovery are embraced here. A universal recovery topic is chosen and then the group discusses it. It is not affiliated with any "Anonymous" program although you are likely to hear comments associated with 12 step fellowships. Meetings are facilitated by a student member of the URC supported by a Recovery Coach and held in person and online for students from all of UConn's campuses.
