"Analyses of grades in 33,818 students showed that the number of days per week they had morning classes was negatively correlated with grade point average."

Please check our new paper in Science Ad. We measured subsidence along the California coast from space at 10s-m spatial resolution and mm-level accuracy. Good for flood hazard analysis and much more. See if your property is subsiding ;)
Please see our paper in
@nature
, we synthesize the current state of knowledge in coastal subsidence and discuss progressive approach to mitigate flooding hazards due to RSL rise. Thanks to Freymueller, Tornqvist, Galloway,

Thank you for the support and the opportunities you have provided me over the course of the last 7 years. I will miss it!!
This morning I found this handwritten letter in my mailbox, which made my day.
Thank you my friend for heartwarming words and glad our research has helped you in your school work. I just put the response letter in the outgoing box.
Keep in touch and all the best
Your friend!!

San Francisco's airport has been subsiding and our new analysis shows the rate has not slowed down. Some parts are subsiding over 1 cm/yr.

I review ~2-3 papers/proposals a week. Meanwhile, a paper of mine is under review for ~8 months in a journal. yesterday, the editor emailed that she hasn't found 2nd reviewer, yet. It is unfair, so I decided, I no longer accept reviews until my paper is published. sorry!

Hm, I came across this article. Apologize to my students for pushing them to publish. But, Is there any study on how successful students are in getting well-paid jobs after PhD, if they don't have publications?
