   abstract: Lisa Luna is a Mendenhall Postdoctoral Research Fellow studying weather-related
     landslide initiation in a changing world.  She applies advanced data analysis
     methods to improve our understanding of landslide-triggering conditions, track
     changes in hazard over time, and predict when and where landslides are most
     likely to occur in the future.
