We are excited to be back to in-person instruction and research interactions at UC Berkeley campus! A quick re-cap of recent developments and activities:
- Huge congratulations to Adam Dickenson and Kendall Harris who have successfully completed their Master’s degrees, graduating in Spring 2021, and performed outstanding work on their thesis research projects!
- Many, many thanks to Skyler Lewis who collaborated with Iryna on the NASA-funded study of remote sensing indicators of wetland plant diversity in Summer 2021
- Huge thanks to Dr. Gwen Miller who has completed her postdoctoral scholarship with us in Summer 2021 and led a just published new paper discussing the opportunities of long-term remote sensing data to support the analyses of wetland phenology and ecosystem function with multiple collaborators from the California State University – East Bay, University of British Columbia, and U.S. Geological Survey, funded by the Delta Stewardship Council. Congratulations to all authors!
- Congratulations to postdoctoral scholar Dr. Yang Ju working on the SALURBAL project and other SALURBAL colleagues on two new publications led by Yang:
- Relationship between urban socioeconomic status and remotely sensed indicators of greening and green space, just accepted in Environmental Research Letters;
- A study investigating the associations between vegetation greenness and dengue in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, in collaboration with Urban Health Observatory of Belo Horizonte, published in Landscape & Urban Planning.
