Usman Khan<\/p><\/div>\n
An interdisciplinary research team at the Lassonde School of Engineering comprised of Engineering Professor Usman Khan, Geomatics Professor Mojgan Jadidi, Civil Engineering PhD student Sarah Kaykhosravi and undergraduate student Karen Abogadil set out to investigate solutions to increased flooding in urban centres.<\/p>\n
Their work was published in a special issue of the journal Water<\/em><\/a> called Urbanization Under a Changing\u00a0Climate \u2013 Impacts on Urban Hydrology<\/em>. In this research paper, the authors establish where Low-Impact Development (LID) infrastructure should be implemented for maximum benefit.<\/p>\n LID technologies mimic the natural water cycle to capture urban stormwater runoff, but they also provide a range of socioeconomic and environmental benefits. Some examples of LID technologies include green roofs and rain gardens.<\/p>\n \u201cOur research is attempting to enhance urban areas by including not only the engineering goals like flood risk reduction but also providing other benefits like improving air quality, giving access to green spaces, and promoting biodiversity in urban areas,\u201d said Khan.<\/p>\n A map of Toronto that shows the need for LID, ranked from lowest (green) to red (highest). The need for LID takes into account the stormwater benefits, as well as the socio-economic and environmental benefits<\/p><\/div>\n Currently, a clearly defined method to help decide where to install LID technology within a city that considers both the direct and indirect benefits does not exist. Instead, it\u2019s done on an ad-hoc basis. Identifying sites with the highest need for LID ensures the maximization of all benefits for the most people. This problem has not been widely addressed in existing research and was the focus of the team\u2019s research. They found that a systematic approach would help optimize where to install LIDs within a city like Toronto, and hence, who benefits from them.<\/p>\n \u201cWe demonstrated that keeping the \u2019secondary\u2019 benefits in mind during the planning stage can lead to results that are very different if only the \u2019primary\u2019 benefits are considered. It\u2019s exciting to think about how this approach can impact our cities in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n Read the full paper here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","parent":null,"link":"https:\/\/yfile.news.yorku.ca\/2019\/12\/04\/interdisciplinary-lassonde-research-team-publishes-in-special-edition-of-journal-water\/","date":"2019-12-04T15:13:02","modified":"2019-12-04T15:39:19","format":"standard","slug":"interdisciplinary-lassonde-research-team-publishes-in-special-edition-of-journal-water","guid":"http:\/\/yfile.news.yorku.ca\/?p=270799","excerpt":" An interdisciplinary research team at Lassonde set out to investigate solutions to increased flooding in urban centres.

It\u2019s hard to believe that Jesse Thistle never intended to be a writer.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve got all these fancy titles now, but really I\u2019m just a storyteller,\u201d he told a captive audience at York University\u2019s Sandra Faire and Ivan Fecan Theatre on Tues. Nov 19.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>Thistle spoke sincerely, but it was evident to anyone at the 2019 Kitty Lundy Memorial Lecture \u2013 which he headlined \u2013 that Thistle is much more than just a storyteller.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Jesse Thistle delivering his lecture (image: Nicole Glassman)<\/p><\/div>\n A PhD candidate at York University\u2019s Department of Equity Studies, and author of the best-selling memoir From the Ashes: My Story of Being M\u00e9tis, Homeless, and Finding My Way<\/em>, Thistle was lauded for his courage, honesty and resilience by the three artists and panelists who joined him at the lecture: Shane Belcourt, Jesse Wente, and ShoShona Kish.<\/span><\/p>\n “Stories like Jesse’s are like a road map back home,” said Kish, an Anishinaabekwe community organizer, producer, activist, songwriter and JUNO award-winning artist. “I don’t know how many of you have read this book, but I’m just really happy that you’ll have this medicine.”<\/p>\n Kish reflected on Thistle\u2019s experience with homelessness; it brought back memories of her grandfather, who lived on the street for many years. Just like so many other individuals on the frontlines of colonial intergenerational trauma, Kish noted, her grandfather passed away without sharing his story.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cOne of the products of colonialism and oppression is that our stories get cloaked in shame, and they get buried,\u201d she said. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n This is why, for Kish and the other panelists, stories like Thistle\u2019s are essential to the process of healing and reconciliation.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Shane Belcourt talking about his work and how it relates to Thistle\u2019s book. Seated, left to right: For Wente, sharing stories is not only a way of reclaiming Indigenous sovereignty, but also a vessel through which to counter harmful colonial narratives. As a self-described \u2018Ojibwe dude,\u2019 Wente has had a long career as a film and pop culture critic, but to him, \u201cfilm is just the conduit … it\u2019s really about the story.\u201d <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n He talked about the need to have more Indigenous representation in artistic spaces, recalling moments at prestigious events like the Cannes Film Festival where he was the only Indigenous person in the room.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Belcourt, a M\u00e9tis cinematographer, writer and director, echoed these sentiments, and added a plea for other Indigenous folks to continue to share their stories. \u201cYour Indigeneity is your gift and your responsibility.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Thistle ended the night by sharing a token of wisdom he received from one of his elders: the fact that storytelling is a form of preserving culture, memory and identity.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cMy elder reminded me to present the book in a way that reflects that we are strong people,\u201d Thistle said. \u201cWe resist.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The annual Kitty Lundy Memorial Lecture\u00a0honours the late Kitty Lundy, an admired educator of sociology who was associated with York’s former Atkinson Faculty of Liberal Arts & Professional Studies from 1986 to 1989. Wide-ranging in her accomplishments and interests, Lundy felt particular concern\u00a0for the fields of education, occupations and women’s studies, and demonstrated a keen commitment to students pursuing their studies on a part-time basis. To\u00a0honour\u00a0her memory, the Lundy family established the Kitty Lundy Memorial Fund, which supports the annual lecture.<\/p>\n The 2019 Kitty Lundy Memorial Lecture was co-hosted by The Department of Equity Studies, the Aboriginal Students Association at York (ASAY), the Centre for Aboriginal Student Services (CASS), the Indigenous Council, the Indigenous Studies Program, the History of Indigenous Peoples Network, the Robarts Centre for Canadian Studies, the Department of History, Office of the Provost & Vice-President Academic, Office of the President.<\/p>\n","parent":null,"link":"https:\/\/yfile.news.yorku.ca\/2019\/12\/04\/a-road-map-back-home-jesse-thistle-and-the-power-of-storytelling-at-the-kitty-lundy-memorial-lecture\/","date":"2019-12-04T15:12:24","modified":"2019-12-04T15:42:35","format":"standard","slug":"a-road-map-back-home-jesse-thistle-and-the-power-of-storytelling-at-the-kitty-lundy-memorial-lecture","guid":"http:\/\/yfile.news.yorku.ca\/?p=270717","excerpt":" A PhD candidate at York University’s Department of Equity Studies, and author of a best-selling memoir, Jesse Thistle was lauded for his courage, honesty and resilience during the annual Kitty Lundy Memorial Lecture on Nov. 19.<\/p>\n","menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"date_tz":"America\/Toronto","date_gmt":"2019-12-04T20:12:24","modified_tz":"America\/Toronto","modified_gmt":"2019-12-04T20:42:35","meta":{"links":{"self":"https:\/\/yfile.news.yorku.ca\/wp-json\/posts\/270717","author":"https:\/\/yfile.news.yorku.ca\/wp-json\/users\/12384","collection":"https:\/\/yfile.news.yorku.ca\/wp-json\/posts","replies":"https:\/\/yfile.news.yorku.ca\/wp-json\/posts\/270717\/comments","version-history":"https:\/\/yfile.news.yorku.ca\/wp-json\/posts\/270717\/revisions"}},"featured_image":{"ID":270783,"title":"jesse thistle kitty lundy FEATURED","status":"inherit","type":"attachment","author":{"ID":12384,"username":"ashleygc","name":"ashleygc","first_name":"","last_name":"","nickname":"ashleygc","slug":"ashleygc","URL":"","avatar":"","description":"","registered":"2015-07-28T19:10:22+00:00","meta":{"links":{"self":"https:\/\/yfile.news.yorku.ca\/wp-json\/users\/12384","archives":"https:\/\/yfile.news.yorku.ca\/wp-json\/users\/12384\/posts"}}},"content":" The Entrepreneurial Leadership & Learning Alliance (ELLA) program, led by York University in partnership with the Small Business Enterprise Centers of Markham, Richmond Hill, Vaughan and York Region, will launch in 2020 with a mission to reduce the gap of gender inequality in entrepreneurship.
