Principal Environmental Scientist Amy Corp recently returned from an unforgettable volunteer trip to Costa Rica with her husband and daughter. Immersed in a small agricultural village nestled in the cloud forests, Amy and her family worked with the community to create a lasting impact and cherished memories. Anchor QEA proudly supported Amy’s efforts by awarding her a grant to help fund the trip after she submitted an exceptional proposal. Together, they built and painted tables and benches for the local community center, freeing residents from the expense of renting furniture for their gatherings. We also provided 10 laptops to local school children, marking the first time many families had owned a computer. The joy and gratitude shared in those moments made this experience especially meaningful. Amy embraced the opportunity to immerse herself in traditional culture, learning to make empanadas using local techniques. Reflecting on the experience, she shared, “I’m super grateful to have had this experience, and my daughter is already talking about helping people in India.” Thank you, Amy and your family, for embodying the spirit of impactful community service! #Volunteering #AnchorQEA #CostaRica #MakingAnImpact

What organization, founded in 1987, is dedicated to protecting and improving the French Broad River? Answer: RiverLink Inc.! Our Asheville office had a fantastic time hosting the inaugural Trivia Night Fundraiser at Wicked Weed Brewery. This event brought the community together post-hurricane to support RiverLink Inc.’s vital mission of preserving the French Broad River. A big thank you to everyone who contributed to making this event a success! #TriviaNight #Asheville #Fundraising #Fun

Artificial intelligence (AI) reporting continues to be a heavy hitter for environmental predictions. In a ScienceDaily article, a groundbreaking study from the University of Birmingham, in collaboration with leading researchers from China’s Research Centre for Eco-Environmental Sciences and Germany’s Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research (UFZ), demonstrates the power of AI in environmental toxicology. Using AI, the team analyzed water samples from the Chaobai River, which is heavily polluted by agricultural, domestic, and industrial runoff. This innovative AI approach allowed researchers to monitor multiple chemicals simultaneously, uncovering their impact on aquatic species such as water fleas, called Daphnia, at genetic and molecular levels. These findings set a new standard for environmental monitoring by enabling scientists to identify harmful chemicals more precisely, conduct intricate testing, and make data-driven decisions to protect waterways and ecosystems.  Read the article here: https://lnkd.in/ea6468jx Read the study here: https://lnkd.in/eiBar7f9 #AInews #Environmental #AnchorQEA #Waterways

Cheers to a bright and successful 2024!  Happy New Year from all of us at Anchor QEA. Here’s to new milestones, opportunities, and continued collaboration.  #AnchorQEA #HappyNewYear 

Offshore wind farms are highly vulnerable to lightning strikes due to their tall structures and isolated locations. Positive polarity lightning has been a major challenge for offshore wind farms, especially in winter months. To help remedy this, the Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute (KERI) is developing a solution using new edge receptor technology designed to shield wind turbine blades from these high-intensity lightning threats.  Strategically positioning air-terminations along blade edges of turbines helps control the distribution of a lightning strike and minimize the damage. This technology can enhance wind turbine stability, contribute to sustainable energy growth, and save money on repairs.  Offshore wind farms are still an evolving technology. Innovations like KERI’s lightning protection system are important steps towards optimizing their efficiency, reliability, and resilience.

Beneficial use projects turn waste into a valuable resource, supporting ecosystems and communities.  Through the Anchor QEA/ Woods Hole Group JV Partnership, we supported Delaware DNREC with the planning, design, and implementation of this critical navigation dredging and habitat restoration/enhancement project. For the White Creek and Assawoman Canal Dredging and Beneficial Use Project, we provided site characterization, dredging design, dredged material reuse analysis, as well as collaborated with DNREC and other local partners to repurpose dredged sediments for habitat enhancement. The sediments dredged to restore the White Creek and Assawoman Canal navigation channels were transported via pipeline over 5+ miles to the Muddy Neck Tract of the Assawoman Wildlife Area, where they were placed using thin layer placement technology. This approach resulted in restoration or enhancement of over 100 acres of tidal wetlands while minimizing stress on the marsh platform, improving habitats for native plants and marsh species. We’re proud to support the sustainability of Delaware’s inland bays and the communities that rely on them. #CoastalResilience #HabitatRestoration #AnchorQEA #ProjectHighlight
