Comings and Goings

Ashley has been working with Jenny Hackel since 12/17/12.

"I studied at the University of Wisconsin - Eau Claire majoring in Business Administration and Spanish for Business. I am working in research administration here. My interests include staying active playing volleyball, hiking, and other outdoor activities."

Tanner will be drilling at WAIS Divide the second half of the 2012-13 season and acting as a driller for a project in Greenland this spring/summer. He will also be involved in the design of modifications to the Blue Ice Drill to extend its capabilities and will continue to  assist with the design of the Intermediate Depth Drill.

Tanner's home base will be in Montana. He is working with Don Lebar.

Gabriel is a student hourly working with Paul Czerniak since 1/3/13.

"I've been working as a graduate student in the SSEC since 2009 working on the understanding the upper-tropospheric features of tropical cyclones. As a full time researcher, most of my effort presently is going into an algorithm to track tropical cloud clusters to provide a center fix to an eventual pre-Tropical Storm component of the CIMSS Advanced Dvorak Technique."

I obtained two Associate Degrees from Madison College prior to transferring to UW-Madison to work towards a Bachelors Degree in Engineering Mechanics with Astronautics. While I am considered a Junior based on earned credits, I do not anticipate graduating until May, 2015. I'm working with Eric Thompson on the Purchasing Team -- full time over winter break and around 20 hours per week during the semester. In my free time I enjoy listening to music (especially live music!), traveling, and spending time with my husband and our 5 dogs.

Agnes is transferring from AOS to SSEC as a Research Associate working with Allen Huang.

"I completed my PhD from AOS UW-Madison recently. I will be working on accessing the impact from the assimilation of geostationary hyperspectral infrared data for both global and regional numerical weather prediction. I received my prior degress in Singapore majoring in Physics."

Keely's last day (working with Jean Phillips) was 12/31/12.
