SUMMARY:Lunchtime Discovery: Beneficial Partnerships in Ecological Communities
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Stacy Zhang\, Assistant Professor\, Department of Marine\, Earth and Atmospheric Science\, NC State University \nMany of us learned about symbioses\, like mutualisms and parasitism\, as children in school. Only recently have we realized how powerful and ubiquitous these interactions are. They underlie the formation of whole ecosystems\, increase resistance to environmental stress\, and can enhance the success of ecological restoration projects. Our guest Stacy Zhang will explore how organisms positively interact and how we can harness these interactions for improving conservation. Dr. Zhang is examining how these interactions apply to the resiliency of living shorelines\, and recently received a grant from the National Science Foundation and the Paul G. Allen Family Foundation to research and develop new restoration techniques for coastal systems. Collaborators include Duke University\, the North Carolina Coastal Federation and the Nature Conservancy. \nJoin us on YouTube!\n\nLive Virtual Presentation hosted by NC Museum of Natural Sciences’ SECU Daily Planet Curator Chris Smith and the NC Department of Environmental Quality Office of Environmental Education and Public Affairs staff. \nYou can post questions in the YouTube chat or tweet questions to #LunchTimeDiscovery and mention @NorthCarolinaEE. \nBrought to you by the NC DEQ Office of Environmental Education and Public Affairs and the NC Museum of Natural Sciences.
