Climate Change Science

David S.-K. Ting is the founder of the Turbulence and Energy Laboratory at the University of Windsor, through which he supervises students primarily on energy and thermofluids. He is a prolific author/editor and a member of the Association of Professional Engineers, Geologists, and Geophysicists of Alberta (APPEGA); Professional Engineers Ontario (PEO); the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE); the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME); the Engineering Society for Advancing Mobility Land Sea Air and Space (SAE). He has edited several books for Elsevier, the most recent ones especially focused on sustainable engineering and development practices. Jacqueline A. Stagner is the Undergraduate Programs Coordinator in the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Windsor. She is an adjunct graduate faculty member in the Department of Mechanical, Automotive and Materials Engineering and co-advises students in the areas of sustainability and renewable energy, in the Turbulence & Energy Laboratory. She is a professional engineer with a PhD in Materials Science and Engineering and prior to joining the University of Windsor, she worked as a release engineer in the automotive industry. She has disseminated numerous journal articles focused on sustainability and the built environment, in addition to coediting twenty volumes.
