Pickup Truck Coding & Agricultural Monitoring: Meet Lindsay Barbieri
Curled up in the driver's seat of a mud-layered pickup truck, I carefully tap out some final code adjustments on my laptop. The hum of the generator in the back drowns out the quiet air-gulping noises from our greenhouse gas analyzer beside it, so I keep a careful eye...
Hello World: Meet Sam Silva
Hello World! My name is Sam Silva, and I am a new ESIP student fellow. I work as a PhD student at MIT in Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics working with Colette Heald. I’m currently trying to understand interactions between the biosphere and the chemical composition of...
ESIP Data Stewardship Committee Updates: End of Year Activities and Looking Forward to 2016
Being the student fellow this year for the Data Stewardship Committee has been an amazing learning experience for me. Through working with the Committee, not only did I get to know more Committee members and learn more about the Committee’s key collaborative areas,...
Learning to Use More Than a Hammer: A Review of the Software Carpentry Workshop
There's an old saying that when the only tool you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. I know, it's cliched and painfully overused, but stay with me here. In the world of working with scientific data, and processing data using a computer and a programming...
Agriculture, Climate and Water: Can Drones Help Us Make Better Management Decisions?
Flinging a small fixed-wing drone into the crisp morning air to monitor an agricultural field, the whine of the propellers gives way to a burst of radio chatter. I direct my small undergraduate team to measure greenhouse gas emissions in the field while keeping an eye...
ESIP Data Stewardship Committee Updates: The Student Fellow's Experience in Publishing an Article for the “Data Management Short Course for Scientists”
From 2011-2013, members of the Earth Science Information Partners (ESIP) Data Stewardship Committee (the Committee) worked together to produce the “Data Management Short Course for Scientists” (Short Course). The current Short Course consists of 35 modules, organized...
