Hello all!
Time to introduce myself!
I'm Carolina, and I a PhD candidate (very close to finish). Generally, my research focus on using geodetic data to estimate slow ground motion on different areas across the GOM. I'm particularly interested in hydrogeodesy and InSAR 🛰️
Last week I was invited to give a talk in the REACT-TC webinar series from IEEE. It was very excited to share about my work in land motion and geodetic datasets.

Here is the recording if you're interested on these topics!

I'd like to be more active in Bluesky, but I wonder what should I share?

About science and my experience?
Me:That maybe pretentious

About my insecurities?
Me: That may close some doors

About politics?
Me: I'm not an expert and again the doors issue

Should it be in English or Spanish?
Me: 😐

What Vance is doing here is ENORMOUS disinformation. International students at the undergrad level typically pay full tuition, which subsidizes tuition for American students on financial aid by keeping tuition costs lower. At the grad level, domestic students are harder to recruit!
"Last week, Vance said foreign students at elite U.S. universities are 'not just bad for national security,' but also 'bad for the American dream, for American kids who want to go to a nice university but can’t because their spot was taken by a foreign student.'"

Universities are caving to Trump with a stunning speed and scope
Some of the nation’s oldest and wealthiest institutions are swiftly bending to President Donald Trump, who is acting on longstanding conservative criticisms of universities as elitist and progressive.

Protecting women's restrooms from 'men' by... Sending armed men into women's restrooms

As per usual, if your goal is to abuse women, why would you ever go to the trouble of pretending to be trans when it's so much easier to just become a cop

ICE detained a family—including a toddler—after they were overheard speaking Spanish. They’re US citizens from Puerto Rico.

No chance to explain. The mother, grandmother, and child were shopping when ICE agents took them into detention before admitting their “mistake.”

This is Trump’s America.

Most migrants are not criminals and should be treated with respect.
Even criminals deserve respect and a due process.
It's the bare minimum
Breaking News: Colombia’s president said the country wouldn’t allow deportation flights from the U.S. until President Trump provides a process that treats migrants with “dignity and respect.”
Colombia Will Not Accept U.S. Deportation Flights, President Petro Says
Gustavo Petro said on X that the United States should not treat Colombian migrants as criminals and needs to establish a dignified protocol before his country will allow their return.
