   abstract: "In 2019, Jory came to the U.S. Geological Survey to work on the Flood\
     \ Frequency for Hydraulic Design project funded by the Federal Highway Administration\
     \ and has since become a member of numerous project teams in the Water Resources\
     \ Mission Area, including the Integrated Water Availability Assessments (IWAAs)\
     \ Trends and Drivers project (methods team lead) and National Drought Prediction\
     \ project.  He is also one of the USGS representatives to the Science Subgroup\
     \ of the Interagency Flood Resilience Working Group and co-coordinates the Hydrologic\
     \ Extremes Working Group (HEWG) of the USGS Water Resource Mission Area\u2019\
     s Modeling Community of Practice.Prior to coming to the U.S. Geological Survey,\
     \ Jory worked as a postdoctoral research associate at the University of Vermont,\
     \ where he simulated the effects of climate change on cyanobacteria blooms in\
     \ Lake Champlain.  He obtained his doctoral degree in Environmental and Water\
     \ Resources Engineering in 2017, where he also was a fellow in the interdisciplinary\
     \ Water Diplomacy program. He has also conducted international development work\
     \ in numerous Latin American countries and southeast Asia. While most of his\
     \ recent USGS work has been statistical, Jory also has a background in climate\
     \ change planning, water-resources management, decision-support methods, and\
     \ geography and enjoys opportunities to weave these other interests into his\
     \ USGS work."
