Geophysics PhD. I like to better understand how our landscapes form and deform, slowly and brutally at times! As climate changes, I do my epsilon as a research scientist @ClarkU to better tackle risks during heavy rains and floodings.

Thanks to Trump’s Weather Service cuts, the 2 flood zone offices in Texas lack a chief meteorologist, warning coordination meteorologist, senior hydrologist staff forecaster & science officer.
And the top elected official in Kerr County, where the camp is, on their lack of a local warning system.

The #Antarctic ice sheet behaves like a non-Newtonian fluid and may be more nonlinear than previously thought. This impacts its future stability and requires revisions to predictions of sea level rise.
