91直播视频professor and students present at natural resource management conference
Emily Filiberti (Environmental Science, 鈥17), Jessica Kane (Animal Behavior, 鈥17) and Noah Perlut, Ph.D., associate professor in the Department of Environmental Studies, recently presented at the conference Adapt, Adopt, Advance: Resiliency in Natural Resource Management, which was jointly hosted by New England Society of American Foresters, Northeastern Forest Pest Council and the Maine Chapter of The Wildlife Society.
Filiberti and Kane both presented research posters that started as projects in Perlut鈥檚 Advanced Field Methods in Avian Ecology class. Filiberti鈥檚 work centered on age-specific differences in body condition and migratory timing of blackpoll warblers (Dendroica striata) while Kane鈥檚 research demonstrated that temporal changes in the southern Maine black-capped chickadee (Poecile atricapillus) population do not correlate with changes in nearby resident and migrant songbird populations.
Filiberti also presented her research from the College of Arts and Sciences Summer Undergraduate Research Experience (CAS SURE) program from last summer, titled 鈥淣atal Dispersal of Migratory Grassland Songbirds Breeding in Vermont鈥.
In addition, Perlut gave a talk at the conference on the program implemented on UNE鈥檚 Biddeford Campus to use biological control to minimize human exposure to mosquito-borne viruses.
