Emily Huddart Kennedy To what extent is sinful behavior innate versus influenced by your surroundings? My research has shown that environmental impact (e.g., carbon footprint, engagement in household “green” practices like recycling and buying organic products) is shaped more by context than it is by anything innate. For example, a study I conducted compared “green […]

American Geophysical Union Conference Center, Washington, D.C. December 6-7, 2016 The volume of data generated today – and our ability to process and analyze it – is unprecedented. This new big data paradigm results in data sets that are too large and too complex to be processed by traditional applications. When supported by emerging analytical […]
By Eric Sorensen, WSU science writer PULLMAN, Wash. – As long as ecologists have studied temperate lakes, the winter has been their off-season. It’s difficult, even dangerous, to look under the ice, and they figured plants, animals and algae weren’t doing much in the dark and cold anyway. But an international team of 62 scientists […]
