It turns out that Wiley, the for-profit owner of HE, seems to view this job as a public service and thus offered an annual stipend of ~$7300 for a job that requires over 500 hrs. They inquired whether my employer, UW UW–Madison , a public university, might supplement this amount

Great job by Georgina Lily Gemayel and Sara Ghebremicael with their #PAA2024 poster and paper, both on climate and food/nutritional security. So wonderful to see mentees thrive!

Thanks Clark Gray for curating the session and getting such symbiotic papers together! And Valerie Mueller for your insightful feedback. PAA is by far the most productive conference I’ve been to!

My dear coauthor Matt Hauer got the prestigious early career award. Congratulations to him! Big hugs and well deserved. #PAA2024

The 2nd annual pop-env grad-faculty lunch was a big success! Or so it appears in these pictures from Susana Adamo since my flight was delayed 🙃

Another great climate session at #paa2024 , this one on repro health and organized by Raya Muttarak. I presented our recent PNASNews paper on this topic and Zarmeen Salim presented the paper below, both with Brian Thiede.

Psyched that this session that I organized & Dr. Leah VanWey chaired turned out so well: packed room, great papers by 4 grad students (incl. Garima Jain and Kate Thomas), and detailed comments by Valerie Mueller. We have come so far since the early PAA sessions on clim-mig!

Collaborators, unite!!

Great comments from lorimaehunter on our #paa2024 paper led by Heather Randell showing that warming and greening of Lake Malawi appears to undermine lakeshore food security.

Finally made it to #paa2024 after a delay and immediately found all three of my advisees at Alfredo's poster! His postdoctoral work using global The DHS Program data shows that anemia increases with temperature exposures for adult women.

And what a punch: Drought traps people and limits their mobility choice.
Important findings that resonate with The HABITABLE Project emerging findings from other parts of the world (not yet published).

Intense greens in Battle Park right now.

Assessing climate change's global economic impacts typically focuses on annual temperatures - but what happens if we include variability and extremes?
