    S3 EP12: Volcanology with Shannon Kobs Nawotniak

    Shannon earned her BS in Geology from Michigan Technological University and her PhD from the University at Buffalo, with a focus in physical volcanology. She’s a professor and department chair in the Department of Geosciences at Idaho State University, where she likes to claim that her research is like professional grade “the floor is lava” thanks to her work on volcanic analogs. She brags that career highlights include riding a horse, up a volcano, through the rainforest, with a machete, and serving as a faux astronaut for a simulated mission to Mars run by NASA. One of her favoriteclasses to teach is Programming for GIS, where she helps students with no coding background learn how to step up their game in geospatial analyses.

    Special Episode Graduate Scholarship Awardee Pratikshya Regmi

    Pratikshya is originally from Jaljala, a remote village in Nepal. Her journey in geospatial science began with an undergraduate degree in Geomatics Engineering from Kathmandu University, followed by a master’s degree in Geospatial Systems Engineering from Texas A&M University–Corpus Christi. She is currently a PhD candidate in Geospatial Analytics at North Carolina State University. Her research focuses on the geomorphic impacts of Hurricane Helene in western North Carolina, where I use LiDAR, UAV imagery, satellite data, and geospatial modeling to understand terrain change, debris movement, and altered drainage patterns after extreme events. Through her work, she aims to develop geospatial methods and decision-support tools that can help communities, scientists, and emergency managers better prepare for, respond to, and recover from natural disasters.
