This was also a monster analysis that involved compiling a tons of exciting data, producing spatial layers, and synthesizing the data within an economic modeling framework.
I'm biased, but a very cool example of interdisciplinary science that I will use in my teaching this fall.

As a female climate scientist, blocking is the only thing that makes my engagement here on Twitter/X possible.
Daily, I receive comments that range from disparaging to downright vile. Since Oct, my tweets can attract thousands of trolls (real people) and bots (not real). 🧵
