What I’m Doing Now
This is my now page; I can’t promise how up-to-date it is, but at least the last-updated date is printed!
What I’m Thinking About
This list is not identical to what my group1 is working on; these are things I’m thinking about myself or with collaborators, at varying levels of maturity.
1 The people who do the real work, my students and postdocs.
- Changing meteorological extremes and their impacts on power system reliability, particularly correlated extremes across variables and/or space;
- Probabilistic depth-damage relationships and implications for flood risk assessment;
- Partial pooling of tide gauge measurements;
- Ethical-epistemic implications of information criteria-based model selection;
- Adaptive sampling for a variety of design-of-experiment problems with complex, high-dimensional model frameworks.
- Quantifying the life-cycle implications, costs, and benefits of approaches to solar radiation management and/or carbon sequestration given future CO2 emissions and Earth-system uncertainties.
I’m open to collaboration on any of these topics, or anything else that you think I could contribute to.
I’m also trying to force myself to do write some notebooks about these and other topics; we’ll see how successful that is.
What I’m Doing Outside of Work
- Tennis (not enough!);
- Powerlifting;
- Learning how to play the congas, particularly Afro-Cuban rhythms.
- Trying to get out and enjoy Ithaca in the summer.
- Listening to podcasts; some of my favorites:
