Anne K Huth

Aridlands Resource Curriculum

Anne Huth is currently developing a set of NSF-funded high-school curriculum that encourages students to explore watershed health and vulnerability across many different landscapes using MyWorld GIS and Google Earth tools. The curriculum maintains an emphasis on wildfires and watershed response in southwestern U.S. watersheds. She is also involved in the field-testing and outreach aspect of the resources. Collaboration with science experts at the University of Arizona, U.S. Forest Service, and CUAHSI is an integral part of her current work, to ensure new scientific discoveries are appropriately incorporated into the learning resources. Over the past 4 years, she has participated in development and field testing of a series of college- and high-school-level GIS-based Investigations of Earth Science (Hall-Wallace et al., 2003, 2004, 2007). As a graduate student, Dr. Huth was actively involved in outreach to local teachers and classrooms through the NSF-funded GLOBE and GK-12 CATTS programs. She received her Ph.D. in hydrology at the University of Arizona, focusing her research on hydrograph separation and N-cycling in snowmelt-dominated environments and in semiarid streams during monsoon flood flow in the Southwest

Crystal Ray

Crystal is currently a student and her interests are always changing. One day, she´s interested in Engineering. Another day, in architecture and yet another day, in writing. After so much time, she´s still trying to make up her mind. Perhaps an Engi-architect-writer? Maybe someday, she´ll finally decide. But for now, she´s having fun learning web design and development — a little hobby she picked up in her freshman year at MIT and enjoys doing from time to time.

Tammy K Bravo

Tammy is a geophysicist, programmer, and educator. She is completing her Ph.D. in geophysics at Indiana University, focusing her research on imaging the Caribbean - South American Plate Boundary in Venezuela. She has worked in seismology outreach for the last 8 years.

Mike Mayhew

Following early career phases in academia and at NASA, Mike spent many years as a program manager in geophysics, and later geoscience education at the National Science Foundation. His chief interest is in fostering public understanding of science. He travels regularly to New Mexico from his home in Ocean City, Maryland.
