Earth Science
Earth Science encompass the branches of science dealing with the physical, chemical, and biological connections of the major earth systems, and geographers place that in context with social systems and technology. If that seems broad it’s because it is. Between the breadth of the topics I can touch, the power that bringing visual and geographic context can have on a problem, and working through the friction associated with reproducibly measuring, modeling, and communicating the state of our world, there’s a lot to love about being a GIScientist / Hydrologist / Technologist? (and one of the things that is quickly killing me). This is a place for me to reference materials and whatnot that are more conceptual than programmatic. This side of my site will likely never be fleshed out, but I wanted some form of a backstop/boundary here.
