The document summarizes key points from a presentation on multivariate extremes given at SAMSI in August 2015. It discusses how most extreme events involve more than one variable, and gives examples of hot/dry/windy and hot/moist/stagnant conditions. It also briefly describes two deadly heat waves that occurred in India and Pakistan in summer 2015, noting that while both were hot, the conditions in Pakistan were also humid, resulting in a much higher risk ratio of deaths.Evaluating online sources on Climate Change

The group collected sources on good and bad sources of information about climate change. They found two good sources from a library database, including a current quote stating climate change is caused by human activity. They evaluated the sources as authoritative and accurate based on the authors and evidence. They also found a bad source from an online article about hacked emails questioning climate science. They deemed this a bad source as it was not peer-reviewed, sought to discredit science, and lacked strong evidence.McCulley and Vincelli w2w 2013

This document provides an agenda for discussing climate change with agricultural producers. It begins by affirming the success of American agriculture and explaining that producers did not cause climate change. It then gently shares mainstream climate science trends related to agriculture, such as increasing heat waves, heavy rainfall, shifting plant hardiness zones, and longer growing seasons. The document suggests addressing climate change through investments like breeding resilient crops, soil conservation, irrigation, and forestry. It also notes "win-win" ways producers can reduce greenhouse gases through practices like efficient fertilizer use and capturing methane. The overarching message is that climate change presents challenges, but also opportunities through adaptation and mitigation efforts.Virginia¡¯S Climate

Temperature change in our nation¡¯s capital are changing the plant behavior in such a way to lengthen and increase pollen exposure for residents. Work is under way to understand the true impact of these changes in our cities, however, there is indirect evidence that changes in allergic disease are likely, and good evidence that increased allergic disease severity results in significant economic loss for communities.Climate Change and Public Health HARDCOVER

Climate change is causing, and will increasingly cause, a wide range of adverse health effects, including heat-related disorders, infectious diseases, respiratory and allergic disorders, malnutrition, mental health problems, and violence. The scientific bases for the associations between climate change and health problems are evolving as are the strategies for adapting to climate change and mitigating the greenhouse gases, which are its primary cause.With contributions from 78 leading experts in climate change and in public health, this book contains a concise and comprehensive book that represents a core curriculum on climate change and public health, including key strategies for adaptation and mitigation. Written primarily for students and mid-career professionals in public health and environmental sciences, the book clearly describes concepts and their application to the health impacts of climate change. Chapters are supplemented with case studies, graphs, tables and photographs. The book's organization in 15 chapters makes it an ideal textbook for graduate and undergraduate courses in public health, environmental sciences, public policy, and other fields.

This document summarizes a study that examined undergraduate students' understanding of climate change. The study administered a survey to students at two East Coast universities to assess their knowledge of climate change science and social issues. It analyzed students' "knowledge scores" on the survey and elements of their "mental models" of climate change based on interview responses. The study found that students frequently confuse climate change with other environmental issues and that a majority do not have an understanding that closely matches the scientific explanation. Environmental group membership was found to be a stronger determinant of climate change knowledge than enrollment in a science major.Global Warming Cracked Open

This document summarizes a study that assessed how graduate students perceive the risks of climate change and their willingness to pay for climate change mitigation policies. The study found that students had diffuse risk perceptions, with a wide range between their upper and lower estimates of temperature increases in Boston by 2100. On average, students estimated a median temperature increase of 1-3 degrees Fahrenheit by 2100. However, the study also found evidence of behavioral biases influencing risk perceptions, such as those with higher risk estimates for climate change also perceiving greater risks for unrelated issues. The study aimed to examine rational and behavioral influences on risk perception and willingness to pay for climate policies.UC Berkeley Media Highlights 2013

Global Societal Issue
The refugee crisis is the global issue that I have chosen to explore. Fleeing of refugees has been a serious issue with different people trying to flee war-torn nations for decades. The fleeing of refugees has spread across the globe, affecting millions of citizens across all continents. This topic has a lot of available information. Further research on the issue is important to ensure that only facts are used instead of bias opinions. Further research allows for the comparison of happenings in the past and different nations. It gives an opportunity for foreign policy comparison, which enables the development of the best policies.
Thesis Statement
The refugee crisis is a global issue that is straining the host countries and migrating refugees. Both parties are subjected to mental, physical and financial strains. The local agencies and the government planning for refugee arrival can relieve these strains. Adequate resources should be availed to provide for the refugees ensuring that they maintain the citizens¡¯ resources.
Impact on a Specific Population
The refugee crisis has affected different populations. There is an impact on refugees because they leave their loved ones, friends and homes against their will. The host nations are impacted, as they must ensure the availability of enough resources to provide for and take care of the rising population. The host country citizens are impacted because the refugees come from countries with different cultures, laws and regulations.

¡°The High Cost of Resettling Middle Eastern Refugees,¡± is a surprising article due to the amount that the US incurred in resettling the refugees. According to the article every refugee will use approximately $64,370 in the first period of five years that is 12 times of the UN estimate cost for taking care of one refugee from the Middle Eastern region (Zeigler & Camarota, 2015).

The document summarizes key learnings from research conducted by the Potential Energy Coalition, a nonprofit working to increase support for climate action. Some of their main findings include:
1) Simplicity is needed - most people do not understand climate change terminology and concepts. Human stories about everyday people are more effective than policy language.
2) Appealing to humanity works best - messaging that discusses people's identities, fears and hopes for themselves and their families increases support for climate action more than messages about economic or environmental issues.
3) Holding polluters accountable resonates - messages holding the fossil fuel industry responsible for causing climate change are highly motivating across many audiences.
4) Urgency is persuasive - highlightingo HOLLAND_ClimateChangeNegative

This document summarizes a paper addressing climate change and government policy. It reconciles criticisms from Lindzen and Hayward regarding the IPCC's view of anthropogenic climate change. Two studies found over 90% of peer-reviewed articles support the IPCC's conclusion of a human cause. The paper argues government should mitigate greenhouse gas emissions through a cap-and-trade system to reduce costs and benefits of carbon reduction policies. It concludes the Obama administration should immediately implement cap-and-trade to lower emission levels.Invervention Proposal (all assignments mentioned below are attache.docx

Invervention Proposal (all assignments mentioned below are attached)
In Week Three, you created a literature review around the scenario that you selected in Week One (scenario is below). For the Week Six assignment, you will create an intervention proposal that contains a professional recommendation for the chosen case study. The Intervention Proposal should incorporate the Week Three Literature Review and Week One Annotated Bibliography assignments.
In a 10- to 12-page paper (not including the title page or references page) the student will:?
Briefly restate the problem from the chosen case study.
Compose a thesis statement that contains the student¡¯s professional recommendation. The thesis statement should be located near the end of the second paragraph of the report.
Explain the relevant theories and empirical studies that have led to the student¡¯s professional recommendation. The explanation must include evaluations of seven to eight, peer-reviewed articles from the Annotated Bibliography that was created in Week Two. At least one of these articles must be about a specific empirical study. In addition, the explanation must:
Evaluate each article (comparing and contrasting them with the other articles) and answer the following questions:
What was the researchers¡¯ research question?
What was their hypothesis?
How many participants did they have?
Was the research design method appropriate for that particular hypothesis? Was it valid?
Did their findings support the hypothesis?
What are the implications?
What are the limitations?
Discuss the opposing sides to the student¡¯s recommendation and explain:
Why it is relevant.
Why it should be considered.
Why it should be discounted for this recommendation.
Discuss any limitations or gaps in existing research.
Restate the professional recommendation in one to two concluding paragraphs.
The paper must include a title page and references page, and it must be formatted according to APA style as outlined in the?Ashford Writing Center.
Organization tip:?It is best to start with the least related and most broad article and move toward the most relevant. It can be helpful to think of the organization for this report as a funnel: The articles evaluated should get more and more specific and narrow in breadth throughout the report.
Language Note:?This report is being written for an audience that is not familiar with the theories and material that are discussed. This means that the paper needs to be accessible to all individuals. All technical terms, acronyms, and theories should be explained and jargon should be avoided.

The Future of Repair: Transparent and Incremental by Botond De?nesScyllaDB
?
Regularly run repairs are essential to keep clusters healthy, yet having a good repair schedule is more challenging than it should be. Repairs often take a long time, preventing running them often. This has an impact on data consistency and also limits the usefulness of the new repair based tombstone garbage collection. We want to address these challenges by making repairs incremental and allowing for automatic repair scheduling, without relying on external tools.Inside Freshworks' Migration from Cassandra to ScyllaDB by Premkumar Patturaj
Inside Freshworks' Migration from Cassandra to ScyllaDB by Premkumar PatturajScyllaDB
?
Freshworks migrated from Cassandra to ScyllaDB to handle growing audit log data efficiently. Cassandra required frequent scaling, complex repairs, and had non-linear scaling. ScyllaDB reduced costs with fewer machines and improved operations. Using Zero Downtime Migration (ZDM), they bulk-migrated data, performed dual writes, and validated consistency.Cloud of everything Tech of the 21 century in Aviation
