The AlmaMAC Episode 227 (Mar. 24/22): Protecting our peatlands with Emma Sherwood

Peatlands are wetland ecosystems that are home to at-risk species, tremendous biodiversity, and are responsible for storing huge amounts of carbon. In fact, peatlands are the largest natural carbon source in the world, making them instrumental in mitigating the effects of global warming. However, being a large carbon sink is a double-edged sword because these peatlands release large amounts of carbon when they burn through wildfires. Evidently, it is important to understand the factors that may make peatlands more vulnerable to wildfires to potentially intervene and even restore these ecosystems. But, what are these factors? Emma Sherwood, a 2nd year Master's student in the <a href="https://www.science.mcmaster.ca/ees/">School of Earth, Environment, & Society</a>, is researching these factors and creating maps of peatlands that may be more vulnerable to the effects of wildfires. Tune in to learn more about Emma's research and her active lifestyle outside the lab!  To learn more about the McMaster Ecohydrology lab, check out their lab page <a href="http://ecohydrology.mcmaster.ca/">here</a> You can follow Emma on twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/emmasherwood02">here</a>

The AlmaMAC Episode 225: You can't pour from an empty cup with Nicole Rakowski

Burnout - a state of exhaustion, stress, and disillusionment - has increased across the workforce, especially in healthcare providers. In these settings, burnout can lead to poor outcomes for patient care, safety, and retention. In order to have the best outcomes for patients, healthcare providers must understand what factors can increase their morale and prevent burnout. But, what are those factors? <a href="https://www.degroote.mcmaster.ca/profiles/nicole-rakowski/">Nicole Rakowski</a>, a 2nd year PhD student in the <a href="https://research.degroote.mcmaster.ca/faculty-areas/health-policy-and-management/">Department of Health Policy and Management</a> in the Degroote School of Business, aims to identify factors that can create strong and healthy teams among healthcare providers to ultimately provide the best patient experience possible. Tune in to learn more abut Nicole's research and its important implications!

The AlmaMAC Episode 224: Understanding the influence of northern vegetation change on hydrology with Erin Nicholls

The North is warming at a much faster rate compared to the rest of the world through a process known as Arctic amplification. In Canada, particularly in Yukon, this warming has resulted in more precipitation falling as rain rather than snow. These precipitation changes have several consequences, including changes in vegetation. <a href="https://twitter.com/Erin_Nicholls_">Erin Nicholls</a>, a 4th year PhD Candidate in the <a href="https://www.science.mcmaster.ca/ees/">School of Earth, Environment, and Society</a>, is interested in understanding how these changes in the types of vegetation can impact the water cycle. Tune in to learn more about Erin's impactful research and her academic journey towards her PhD!  To learn more about Wolf Creek Research Basin, you can check our their website <a href="https://www.wolfcreekresearchbasin.ca/">here</a> or follow them on twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/WolfCreekYT">here</a>
