My first course on climate change starts Monday!

For those who have taught climate courses before, any bits of advice to share? Sticking points that surprised you, active learning exercises that work well, etc. My course is intro level, but happy to hear from folks who have taught other levels.

Can we create a landslide susceptibility map using only open-source tools? - The short answer is "YES".

Finally done with MSc in Geoscience with specialization on remote sensing.

Thank you Dan for your guidance throughout the research.
Big congrats to Tek Kshetri on defending his MSc thesis @ucalgary.ca today, focused on deep learning & Earth observation for mapping and monitoring sand mining in Nepalese rivers. Someone like @katefickas.bsky.social @jscarto.bsky.social or @planet.com should scoop him up! :)
