This week, ARE PhD candidate Will Troske presented his ongoing work on the behavioral response of commercial shipping firms to sulfur emissions regulations.
This week, ARE PhD candidate Kelly Wu presented her ongoing work, entitled "Spatial, temporal, and cross-fishery adaptation in the U.S. West Coast Dungeness Crab Fishery." This work is motivated by the fact that climate shocks increasingly disrupt coastal fisheries. Kelly and coauthors examine how fishermen respond to climate shocks in the U.S. West Coast Dungeness crab fishery, where Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs) increasingly trigger fishery closures.
This week, the Lab hosted a two-part seminar. First, Gal Koss presented on best practices for data visualization, graphing, and plotting. Gal discussed Edward Tufte and seminal work The Visual Display of Quantitative Information, the Coolors palette generator tool, and how to avoid "chartjunk." Some data visualization resources from Gal are attached at the end of this post.
