This is the science of the atmosphere, land, biota, and water from a geospatial perspective. By combining contemporary issues such as climate change, environmental extremes, and hazards, this focus area emphasizes the integrative nature of physical and environmental geography. Earth systems scientists use biophysical understanding to identify and solve problems for management and policy. Sub-areas […]
Mohammad Mehedy Hassan Pronouns: he/him University of Florida Adviser: Dr. Jane Southworth Focus Area: GeoSpatial Analysis & Techniques Earth System Science Research Statement: I am a geospatial scientist with an interest in the use of remote sensing (RS) and geospatial techniques analyses to better understand the complex socioecological process of landscape transformation, vegetation-climate change interactions, […]
