Jenna is a postdoc at UW studying the effect of fires on the forests of the PNW. While fires are natural, climate change can exacerbate their effects. Her modeling work will help us adapt to our warming planet. If you're a Postdoc at UW, fill out the bargaining survey today (link in bio)!

🌲🔥🪵 New #HarveyLab research on how fire shapes forests in Western Cascades. Check out our paper, led by @jenna-e-morris.bsky.social, where we quantify how much carbon + fuels remain after fire. Cool to see it at the top of UW Today! Thx to @uw-sefs.bsky.social for the Q/A @esajournals.bsky.social

From the north to south pole, from the air we breathe to the ground below: UW researchers are working to protect people and our planet. When funding for this research is disrupted, we put at risk public safety, national security, and a livable future. 🌎🌊🗻

Kendra Buglione, Academic Student Employee, UW Atmospheric Sciences. “Clouds are one of the biggest sources of uncertainty in climate models. My research examines the microphysical properties of clouds over the remote Southern Ocean, where high concentrations of low clouds play a key role in reflecting sunlight to help cool the Earth. Without research funding, we lose the observations needed to understand how our climate is changing, and discourage the next generation from pursuing climate related research.”

Mickey Cassar, Research Scientist, UW Earth & Space Sciences. “I work in the lab that monitors earthquakes and volcanoes across Washington and Oregon. Our operations were foundational in responding to the earthquake swarm at Mt Rainier in July 2025, and the infrastructure, software, and data we maintain are the backbone of earthquake early warning in our region. Without the federal grants that make our work possible, the reliability of this monitoring in the western U.S. declines, with serious consequences for emergency managers and the public who depend on timely, accurate information.”

Allison Moon, Academic Student Employee, UW Atmospheric Sciences. “Atmospheric chemistry research is at risk for federal funding cuts. From pristine to polluted environments and from the surface to the stratosphere, atmospheric chemistry research helps us understand air quality and climate issues. This is crucial for protecting human health, food security (e.g. from atmosphere- plant interactions), and energy resilience (e.g. from impacts on solar radiation). Without federal funding, our modeling capabilities, data-collection, lab and field experiments, and satellite systems will all be severely compromised.”

Brooke Carruthers, Academic Student Employee, UW Oceanography. “Sea ice algae are the unsung heroes of the polar oceans, forming the base of the Artic and Antarctic food chains. Our lab investigates how these hardy microbes thrive in extreme cold, how changing sea ice conditions will affect them, and what that means for the planet. The poles are one of the most rapidly changing environments on the planet, yet we understand little of their complex interations with the rest of the globe. Consistent funding for field and lab work, along with international collaboration, is vital to unravelling the mysteries of the poles.”

UW research saves lives, protects our communities, and builds a path towards climate solutions. Federal funding cuts put all of this work at risk. Meet some of our members who drive this fascinating research at UW!
