Hey everyone! Wow it’s been almost a year since my last blog entry. Though I wasn’t posting I haven’t been completely quiet over since the last time I've posted. Recently in May 2014 I graduated from Howard University with a Masters in Atmospheric Science. My thesis is entitled “The Economic Value of Air Quality Forecasting” which focuses on how vital air quality forecasting is and how more forecasting and policies can help to prevent hospitalizations and deaths caused by poor air quality. My research was even presented at the 47th Annual American Geophysical Union Conference. I also took some time to take care of my very active and growing daughter and come up with new ideas for the blog.
I started the blog in 2009 as a platform for sharing knowledge about what I was learning in school and the world of Earth Science. Back then I was just starting my Bachelor’s in Earth Science at Kean University. Since then the blog grew to include events with NASA social as well. I want to further include many new outlets to this blog such as polls, discussions and product reviews, as a way to get my readers more engaged. I also plan to post more entries and feature guest posts, especially about the environment and atmospheric phenomena both locally and around the globe. Occasionally I'll be running giveaways too.
The world is ever changing and the climate is set for major changes in the very near future, such as reducing crop yields. Science is truly spectacular and voices should be heard. I want to thank everyone who has come to this blog and read some of my earlier postings. I’ve stayed pretty active on Twitter. Thanks for following me on there as well. Thanks again for coming to my blog and to show my appreciation I'm running my first giveaway, a $5 Amazon Gift Card! Look for more giveaways soon!! Good luck!!!!
