Dr. Laura M. Arpan is the Theodore Clevenger Professor of Communication and Director of Doctoral Studies in the School of Communication at Florida State University. Dr. Arpan’s research examines risk perceptions, human motivation and responses to pro-environmental messages, interventions, and related technologies. Her projects focus on the effectiveness of promotional messages and outreach efforts designed to encourage sustainable behaviors such as energy conservation and efficiency. Recent work has examined Americans’ attitudes toward energy conservation and sustainability, factors enhancing the effectiveness of information campaign messages promoting energy-use-reduction and sustainability

Joshua Fu Ph.D.
Dr. Joshua S. Fu is the John D. Tickle Professor of Engineering and Professor of the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering and an Inaugural Professor of the UT-ORNL Bredesen Center for Interdisciplinary Research and Graduate Education, Faculty Affiliate at the UT-ORNL Joint Institute for Computational Sciences at the University of Tennessee, Joint Appointment Professor in the Climate Change Science Institute and Computational Sciences and Engineering Division at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The focus of Fu’s research work includes earth system model development, climatic changes, air pollution modeling, air quality impact assessments, the impacts of extreme events including heatwave, flood and drought caused by tornados and husrricans on health, energy infrastructure assessment, land use (satellite applications) and emission flux, diesel track emission effects, and energy optimization planning. He is a member of the modeling group for UN Economic Commission for Europe Task Force Long Transport for Air Pollution and Climate Change and a modeling lead of the MICS-Asia, Intergovernmental air pollution modeling study. He serves a member of the Arctic Council Arctic Monitoring Assessment Programme Short-life Climate Forcers Expert Group. Dr. Fu has published more than 130 referred journal articles and 100 peer-reviewed conference proceedings, an invited speaker and lecture for more than 120 times in Asia, Europe and US., serves top tied journal editors including Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics. Dr. Fu obtained his BS from Taiwan’s National Cheng Kung University, M.S. from the University of California at Los Angeles, and Ph.D. from North Carolina State University.
