In this episode of This Is CDR Toby and welcome Kodama Systems' Head of Biomass Utilization and Policy Jimmy Voorhis and Yale Carbon Containment Lab's Associate Director of Science Dr. Sinéad Crotty who will discuss their research collaboration on biomass burial of unmerchantable residues from fire thinning. LInks: - https://kodama.ai/ - https://carboncontainmentlab.yale.edu/who-we-are About Jimmy: Jimmy Voorhis leads biomass utilization and policy at Kodama Systems, where he develops solutions to create value from forestry residues based on their inherent carbon. Prior to Kodama, Jimmy was a consulting geochemist for international mining companies and built water + mass balance models of major mining systems across resource types. He is expert at developing methods to better constrain Earth processes, and has pioneered studies in sulfide mineral electrochemistry as well as characterization of pit lake water quality and dynamics utilizing aerial drones. Previously he was an ice climbing and mountain guide in Alaska and National Geographic Explorer studying the impacts of climate change on winter recreation. He holds a MS from Dartmouth and a BSE from Tufts. About Sinéad: Dr. Sinéad Crotty has ten years of experience in experimental community ecology, ecosystem restoration, and environmental engineering. Her previous work utilized primarily hypothesis-driven field experiments along with regional survey techniques, geospatial analyses, and modeling efforts to investigate the effects of climate change on biodiversity, stability and functionality of coastal ecosystems. Sinéad has conducted research across the many coastal systems of the eastern US, including salt marshes, sand dunes, mangroves, cobble beaches, and live oak savannas. Sinéad holds a Ph.D. from the University of Florida in Environmental Engineering Sciences (2019). Prior to her dissertation work, Sinéad received her Bachelor of Science in Biology (Honors) from Brown University in 2015.
