Greetings from the Head Faculty and Staff News As the holiday season is in our door steps, I would like to extend my best wishes to all faculty, staff, students and alumni for this Joyous occasion. I wish all of you a productive and happy New Year. Since my last note in the first circular, the department welcomed several new members to our family. These are Drs. Joel Gagnon, Chris Weisener, Aaron Fisk as well as the appointments of GIS programmer Paul Grzeszczak, and Ms. Kim Livingstone as a receptionist and graduate secretary. Both Aaron and Chris are cross-appointments from GLIER. The department has currently a very dynamic and diverse group interested in a wide variety of research topics, and our faculty members have won over the years numerous national and international awards in recognitions of their research and teaching excellence. The department continues to strive to offer strong, relevant programs in both undergraduate and graduate studies.

Over the past two years, there have been no new retirements however one faculty member was hired, filling Brian Fryer’s position since his becoming Director of GLIER. There has also been two recent GLIER hires that have been cross-appointed with the Department of Earth Sciences. New Faculty Hires:

Dr. Joel Gagnon: Assistant Professor hired 2005 Earth Sciences, B.Sc., M.Sc. (Windsor); Ph.D. (McGill); C.P.G. (AIPG); L.P.G. (IN); C.P. (MI), lab manager GLIER 2001-2005 Analytical and Applied Geochemistry, Mineral Deposi s

The University Senate has approved a name change to reflect the important environmental component of the earth sciences department—it will now be called the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences. This was undertaken to emphasize several of our programs, reflect one of our research areas, and build on the University of Windsor’s “Environmental Pinnacle”. The department offers several undergraduate programs with an emphasis on the environment, including environmental science and environmental geoscience, as well as being a major partner in the environmental studies program. The name change was supported by administrators in civil & environmental engineering as well as inter-faculty programs. The Environmental Science program is also undergoing changes that will make it into an elite program with limited enrollment designed to attract top students.

Awards and Scholarships Alan Trenhaile The University of Windsor Alumni Association honoured three outstanding teachers for their work. Akshai Aggarwal, Donna Marie Eansor and Alan Trenhaile received the Alumni Award for Distinguished Contributions to University Teaching during the University's 35th Convocation ceremonies, June 9 to 11, 2006, at the St. Denis Centre. The awards were established by the University of Windsor Alumni Association in 1987 to honour and recognize faculty members who have been nominated by colleagues, alumni and their students as deserving of this award. The award is also intended to provide incentive and encouragement for achieving excellence in teaching and learning on this campus. The many letters supporting his nomination for this award described earth sciences professor Alan Trenhaile’s love for learning about new geographic and scientific research and his enthusiasm for sharing that knowledge with others. Students and former students praised his wonderful, memorable teaching style. One thing that is remarkable is the large number of them who have gone on to teaching careers—at other universities and in high schools.

S. L. Neuts, vice principal at Walkerville Collegiate Institute, writes: "As a teacher today I still refer to the materials that Dr. Trenhaile has produced. It has been through his total dedication to research and his drive to

enlighten academics that I have been able to transfer a wealth of knowledge to my own classes." His colleagues commend his contributions to curriculum development, including his work in developing Windsor’s exceptional Bachelor of Environmental Studies program that brings together a scientist’s understanding of the environment, plus a social science perspective on how environmental change affects people and communities. Ihsan Al-Aasm and Brian Fryer each received Faculty Special Recognition Awards at the December 4, 2006 Faculty of Science 7th Annual Celebration of Excellence in Research, Scholarship and Creative Activity At the Faculty of Science 7th Annual Celebration of Success event on November 24, 2006, Maria Cioppa received the Rock Solid Performer award in recognition of her contributions to the service, teaching, and research missions of the Department of Earth Sciences. In 2005, Maria Cioppa was also recognized at the 6th Annual Celebration for the highest Earth Sciences teaching score. Chris Lakhan won the honor in 2006. Nicoli Garner, a recent MSc graduate, and one of our first students to achieve qualification for Ontario’s relatively new P. Geo. certification (as did Sajid Ahmad), was awarded with the Ontario Petroleum Institute's Master's Thesis Award, at the Annual General Meeting of the Institute's 46th Annual Oil and Gas Conference.

GIS project earns student award 0 Derek Smyth was chosen as the 2005 Board of Governors Medalist for Earth Sciences in his 4th year. The Board of Governors Medals are awarded annually to undergraduate students graduating with the highest standing in their academic area.

Anyone who has ever tried to tease relationships and correlations from spreadsheet data can appreciate the work of James McCarthy, a master's student of earth sciences. A computer program he designed as an undergraduate thesis project generates three-dimensional representations of subsurface data to give patterns immediate visual recognition. The project helped him earn a prestigious Canada Student Scholarship Award from the Environmental Systems Research Institute. The award entails $2,000 in cash, plus almost $40,000 worth of software, books, and courses available through the institute.

In 2006, graduate student awards were won by Sajid Ahmad (OGS) and Neil Porter (OGSST). In 2005, Neil Porter and Jason Wintermute both won an OGSST.

New Equipment at the University of Windsor

"I was very excited to win this award," says McCarthy. "It's great for myself, for the lab and for the school. Whatever I can do to build Windsor's reputation can only help me."

Earth sciences master's student James McCarthy demonstrates his program, which here is finding concentrations of silver in a Nevada mine.

Shown here is Dr. Ruiping Shi, operating one of two Magnetic Measurements Variable Field Translation Balances; instruments that can measure the magnetization of minerals in changing magnetic fields and temperatures. The two balances are the first installed in North America. The Rock Magnetics Laboratory was funded by the Canadian Foundation for Innovation and the Ontario Innovation Trust.

The institute chose the University of Windsor as one of a select group of schools in Canada to be recognized for a strong multidisciplinary focus in Geographic Information Systems (GIS). McCarthy describes the program he designed as a general-purpose tool. "Rather than searching for mathematical relationships, it produces visualizations to help find correlations," he says. "You can do it using graphs and transparency overlays, but the computer provides a more interactive environment for finding the patterns."

Windsor in the News

The Fifth International Conference on Fluid Evolution, Migration and

Interaction in Sedimentary Basins and Orogenic Belts

Windsor, Canada May 17th –21st,

2006. The Department of Earth Sciences at the University of Windsor hosted Geofluids V - the Fifth international conference on fluid evolution, migration and interaction in sedimentary basins and orogenic belts- from May 17th -21st, 2006. The Geofluids conferences are aimed at building bridges between scientific disciplines, at encouraging interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary collaborations, and at encouraging interactions between academia, industry, and government researchers. The conference program contained a variety of topics – from the role of fluids in mineralization and diagenesis to numerical modeling of fluid flow to the potential effects of biological organisms. The Canadian Society of Petroleum Geologists sponsored a Special Session on Petroleum Systems in Sedimentary Basins, and together with the Mineralogical Association of Canada, sponsored travel awards for ten students and researchers.

Study by G.I.S. lab may improve emergency response times 0

A study by the university's Geographic Information Systems (G.I.S.) laboratory helped Windsor city council in its deliberations on fire and rescue services. Using the study by Alice Grgicak-Mannion and Sandra Albanese, council voted at its August 8 meeting to relocate two fire stations and expand another. The researchers considered land use, population change, traffic patterns and emergency call volumes in conducting their study, which took about four months. Grgicak-Mannion says that analyzing emergency response times is a new application of the technology. "We created multiple drivetime scenarios based on many different criteria," she says. "Data on 6,000 actual incidents were mapped and we found they validated our models." Deputy Chief Tim Berthiaume praised the study, saying the team's expertise was invaluable in the presentation to council. "This study provided us with a new approach in looking at the current and future situation of fire service in the city," Berthiaume said. "The Earth Science's G.I.S. team completed a comprehensive report that allowed us and council to make important decisions for our citizens and our firefighters."

rock box, and a photo exhibit. We would like to thank all the faculty, staff and students who contributed their time, imagery and support in the development of the exhibit.

Science educators from the University of Windsor (Earth Sciences’ Ali Polat and Ihsan Al-Aasm on the left) and local secondary schools gathered Wednesday to exchange information at A Science Partnership In Research and Education (ASPIRE).

The university, with support from sponsors and friends, hosted A Celebration of the Environment, which raised funds for student scholarships on Saturday, June 18. The event also launched a magazine, Pinnacle: the Environment, which was distributed in July. Above, an artificial pond constructed for the event greeted guests at the entrance to the celebration, which occupied both floors of the CAW Student Centre. The Windsor Family Credit Union was the lead sponsor for the event.

Event ASPIREs to bring together secondary and post-secondary science educators A new initiative bringing together University of Windsor science faculty members and local high school teachers will give both groups the opportunity to collaborate as educators, says Rick Caron, Dean of Science. Wednesday, March 1, the Faculty of Science hosted the inaugural meeting of A Science Partnership In Research and Education (ASPIRE). About 50 secondary school science teachers from across Windsor and Essex County joined 30 faculty members for a discussion of ways to cooperate. Dr. Caron says he is eager to harness the positive energy generated by the event. "Participants found the exchange of information and dialogue extremely worthwhile and a step in the right direction," he says. "We plan to move forward in partnership with local school boards on a number of identified initiatives."
