Day 7 of furlough and coping with more nature! Probably should’ve stayed out there, I am not enjoying the news alerts I’m getting now that I have service again

Yes I am coping with nature and bad jokes

Furloughed? More like furLEAFed!

Fun lunch today hanging out with some Cornell alums! #AGU24

Matt Pritchard @mattepritchard.bsky.social · Dec 12

So glad to everyone who came to the Cornell friends of SAR lunch today and thanks to @elizabetheiden.bsky.social for suggesting the venue #agu24

Happy #AGU24! If you're interested in learning about how InSAR closure phase can be used to measure moisture in soil, vegetation, or wildfire fuel materials, check out my poster Wednesday morning and talk Wednesday evening!

At #AGU24? Interested in volcanoes? Interested in Venus? Come chat with me at my poster this afternoon! Poster number 3121

Scientific poster titled “Quantifying volcanism on Venus with VenSAR: Comparison with Earth and Suggestions for Targeted Observations”

I will take this as a good omen the night before my defense! First northern lights 😍

Ready for a week of learning and connecting with other volcanologists at COV12! And excited to catch glimpses of Fuego’s puffs any chance I can get

My worst Christmas present today was a positive COVID test ☹️

It wouldn’t be AGU without an airport delay! Fingers are crossed that I actually make it back to Ithaca before the morning 🤞

Alllll the way at the end of the poster hall! I promise it’s worth the walk

AGU poster titled “How well might VenSAR quantify volcanic flux on Venus? Lessons from Earth”

Good morning #AGU2023 day 3! Come check out my poster (number 3158) this morning to learn all about our ability to quantify eruptive flux on Venus, using lessons from Earth!

Excited and anxious for AGU to get started! Start your week on a high note and come see me talk about topography change at volcanoes at 8:50AM tomorrow in MC 2002 West!

Not sure if I’m more relieved I submitted my first postdoc application or if my computer’s more relieved I closed all of the tabs associated with it! We were both under a lot of stress

I’ll be presenting this work at AGU this December! Come to session EP11B bright and early Monday morning to see the talk 🌋🛰️ (6/5)

Elizabeth Eiden @elizabetheiden.bsky.social · Oct 17

Thanks to my wonderful co-authors (@mattepritchard.bsky.social and Paul Lundgren) for helping guide this research and get it published! I also could not have done this work without the Smithsonian Global Volcanism Program’s incredible database and the guidance of Federico Galetto 🌋🛰️ (5/5)

We collected information about the spatial extent of each eruptive product (average thickness, width, length, area, volume) as well as duration and analyzed those data to come up with suggestions for the spatial and temporal resolutions we need to collect topographic data at. (3/5)

But… how frequently should we collect these data? And with what spatial resolution? We reviewed published literature on hundreds of eruptive products from eruptions that occurred between 1980-2019, focusing on lava flows, lava domes, and pyroclastic flows. (2/5)

🚨New paper alert!🚨 doi.org/10.1029/2023...

Measuring topographic change at volcanoes is really important! Topographic data are used in modeling volcanic hazards and monitoring deformation. Volcanoes are dynamic environments so we need to update these datasets frequently. (1/5)

Hey everyone! My name’s Elizabeth and I’m a PhD candidate at Cornell studying volcanoes 🌋 with remote sensing data (especially InSAR 🛰️)! I love to get outside 🌳, play/watch basketball ⛹️‍♀️, and bake 🍪!

Excited for AGU this year! I have a Monday morning talk and a Wednesday morning poster! Stay tuned for more details 🌋🛰️
