3-Minute Thesis
First Place Winner:  Jahir Antonio Batista Andrade

Title: Environmental Forensic Tools to Detect Leaking Sewers

Description: Leaky sewers are a potential source of contamination in urban streams. These leaks can introduce raw and untreated wastewater into the aquatic environment, leading to potential human and ecological health concerns, such as antibiotic resistance and endocrine disruption. Here, we present an alternative and innovative solution to identify and locate leaking sewers in urban areas through (1) characterization of the fluorescence “fingerprint” of the dissolved organic matter (DOM) with excitation emission matrix parallel factor analysis (EEM-PARAFAC) and (2) analysis of a wide variety of contaminants of emerging concern (CECs). The outcomes presented in this project can be used as an alternative tools to identify and locate leaking sewers in urban areas, not only in Baltimore City, but also in other cities around the world.

“How not to use your data like a racist” will take place Thursday, February 18 from 11:00-11:45 am (Eastern Time Zone). This session is open to anyone who wishes to join, regardless of whether or not you are registered for Data on Purpose.

Heather Krause, founder of Datassist and We All Count, will lead this discussion, where we will explore how to effectively incorporate ethics and equity into data products, knowledge tools, and data analysis. The session will provide you with several shocking real-world examples of mistakes made by organizations using data which led to biased outcomes, and a seven-step framework for identifying inequity and hidden bias in the data product lifecycle. As interest in equity in data grows, this framework provides actionable steps for making changes in the way you and your team use data.

Registered attendees for Data on Purpose will have access to this session as part of their registration. If you are not already registered for Data on Purpose and would like to attend this session at no cost, please sign-up by filling out this short Google Form.

Understanding R
Available now, Online

R is a powerful open source software system for statistical computing. It has become immensely popular due to its intuitive programming language, built-in support for statistical procedures, and ability to produce beautiful graphics. R is extensible through a package system, and numerous contributions from its user community are freely available. R is available on Windows, Macintosh, and Linux platforms. The Center for Interdisciplinary Research and Consulting (CIRC) has created the linked videos to get you familiar with R.


This is one of many virtual research workshops being hosted by the library this semester.  Visit the Library's myUMBC Events page for the full Spring 2021 line up and their workshops and tutorials page for even more resources.   ]]> Understanding R Available now, Online R is a powerful open source software system for statistical computing.
