Our team will present several works at the 2023 AGU Fall Meeting in San Francisco.
Congratulations to Esther Oyedele for receiving the 2023 UCAR/NCAR Science Fellowship
PhD student Esther Oyedele received the USGIF 2023 doctoral award, which is announced here, and Esther was interviewed for it here. Congratulations Esther!
Our proposal to NASA ROSES IDS got funded with $1.3Mio. We are looking forward to working on predicting the risks of hazards due to groundwater pumping, sea level rise and land use change along Virginia's east coast and addressing related issues of climate justice. Details will follow soon.
Sonia Zehsaz defended her Master thesis at VT Geosciences, Sept 5, 2023.

HIRS lab was honorably mentioned in a Virginia Tech news report on April 11, 2023.
Welcome to our new lab members Esther and Nithesh, who are joining us this spring 2023!
The lab is active in organizing and will be presenting at the 2nd international Workshop of the IAG ICCC - Geodesy for Climate Research on May 28-29, 2023 https://iccc.iag-aig.org/iccc-workshops/ws23
At the AGU Fall Meeting 2022 in Chicago the group presented eight oral and poster presentations.

In February 2022, Dr. Werth gave an invited talk at the colloquium of the Geophysics Department at Stanford University.
The lab presented several works in person at the Fall Meeting of the AGU.
Dr. Werth was invited to talk at this year's annual meeting of the Asia Oceania Geoscience Society.
Works of the HydroGeodesy Lab were presented in several oral presentations at the virtual fall meeting 2020 of the American Geophysical Union.
The HydroGeodesy Lab moved to Virginia Tech on July 1st, 2020.
We were awarded by NASA's GRACE Science Team Program and will be conduct research on "Improved Resolution and Sampling of Total Water Storage Changes Through Data Fusion" during the coming four years (January 2020).
The lab engages in the Joint Working Group (JWG) C.5: Understanding the monsoon phenomenon from a geodetic perspective of the IAG Inter-Commission Committee on "Geodesy for Climate Research".
