Katharyn A. Duffy

Katharyn is an Earth-Systems scientist who focuses on the temperature response of the terrestrial biosphere. Her research integrates point-based measurements of phenology and land-carbon uptake into remotely sensed and globally gridded scales for digestion into...
Kyoko Okano

Kyoko Okano

Kyoko’s interest is in how climate change affects boreal forests, particularly disturbance regimes such as wildfire and how it changes the vegetation, its vulnerability and resilience. Her research will be held in interior Alaska where temperatures are expected...
