@Johnubacon I look forward to reading this book. FYI a colleague of mine in @UMSEAS gave a talk where he showed data on wave heights and windspeed spatially across Lake Superior that fateful day. Email me if interested

@pokateo_ When I was in grad school there were no courses in GIS; taught myself IDRISI in 1990. Later, taught GIS to undergrads. Wish I had been able to keep up better over the years but the demands of a professor career overtake you.

From @NYTOpinion: "The only way to stop this planet from overheating is through political, economic, technological and social solutions that end the use of fossil fuels," say Erle C. Ellis, Mark Maslin and Simon Lewis. "Planting trees can't do that." https://t.co/tg2lq3srIU

Happy #WomenInScience Day! 👩‍🔬👩‍🚀 Let’s smash stereotypes, defy gender bias and defeat discrimination that holds women and girls back in Science, Tech, Engineering and Math.

Phasing in next year, UK farm subsidies will be tied to the production of 'public goods' on agricultural land, meaning not food production but pollinator habitat, pollution prevention, C sequestration. Stokstad 2020 Science 367:348-9. @SFSI_UM #sustainability #food

[William S. Currie @WilliamSCurrie]

Congrats to PhD student Bridget Shayka in the @AllgeierLab for her seminar, proposal, and advancing to candidacy last week to study C sequestration in #seagrass beds

@pokateo_ Figure out what they need (the organization or dept), what *they* most need to accomplish in order to succeed. Demonstrate that you can help to shape that. Focus on your interpersonal skills and your ability to make sure stuff gets done when teams are involved.
