报告题目:Our Anthropocene Planet – are we in a new geological epoch, and why does it matter?
报告摘要:
There is a strong argument within the Earth and Ocean Science community (and more widely) that the Earth has moved well beyond the bounds and variability of the current Holocene geological epoch into an epoch where humans have become a dominant biogeochemical and geological force on the planet on a global scale – the Anthropocene. This presentation will discuss concepts of and evidence for the Anthropocene, examining (a) the evidence for our accelerating impact on the planet, and how this has been recorded via radioactive, geochemical, biological and other “fingerprints” in the Earth’s sedimentary materials (ocean sediments, terrestrial soils, biological deposits (corals) and ice), and (b) the wider academic and societal relevance of the Anthropocene, however defined, in understanding and managing our impact on our planet.

报告题目:Advancing coral reef science through experimentation in controlled laboratory settings
报告摘要:
The aquarium facility of the Coral Reef Laboratory at the University of Southampton is a fully established system for coral reef experimentation. The facility hosts representatives of a broad range of coral taxa and other reef organisms in mesocosm settings. It includes a coral nursery to produce coral replicates for experimental studies. The aquarium concepts support long-term experiments with reef building corals under tightly controlled conditions. This presentation will use case studies to demonstrate the versatility of this experimental approach to understand symbiotic corals and their interaction with environmental parameters including light, temperature, salinity and nutrients.
主讲人简介:
Jörg Wiedenmann,南安普敦大学生物海洋学教授,同时主持珊瑚礁实验室相关工作。研究方向为珊瑚-藻类共生机制以及环境条件变化如何影响珊瑚礁生态系统,并在探究营养环境下对珊瑚礁白化方面的影响卓有建树,其研究进一步发现了新的珊瑚共生物种,使珊瑚能够在最炎热的珊瑚礁环境中生存。他和他的实验室成员分离并设计的几种珊瑚荧光色素,已成为生物医学研究中广泛使用的成像工具。截止目前,已发表超过100 余篇学术论文和成果。
