Nadiyah is a second-year EAS student with a focus in meteorology. She is currently involved with tornado-related research at the Severe Storms Research Center and will be working with the National Severe Storms Laboratory in Summer 2022 under the William M. Lapenta Student Internship Program on doppler radar and radiosonde research. She is also a teaching assistant for EAS 2600 and a resident assistant. In her spare time, she enjoys playing roller derby with Yellow Jacket Roller Derby and watching anime.

Autumn Toms is a third-year Earth and Atmospheric Science major with an interest in meteorology. In the past year, she worked with Dr. Lynch-Stieglitz’s lab group to determine changes in the southeast Atlantic oxygen minimum zone during the last glacial maximum. She now researches with GTRI’s Severe Storms Research Center to determine how the peak rotational velocity from radar of tornadoes in the southeast United States compares to the recorded EF rating.

Thomas Silas is a fourth-year Earth and Atmospheric Science undergraduate student with a concentration in meteorology, graduating in spring 2022. His main research interests are synoptic and mesoscale meteorology, particularly severe thunderstorms. Thomas worked with Dr. Zachary Handlos on a project investigating a 2010 East Pacific jet stream superposition event and presented this research at the AMS Student Conference poster session, where he was selected as a recipient of the Undergraduate Outstanding Student Conference Poster Award.

Ella Stewart is a third year BS/MS student in EAS, focusing her coursework on environmental science. She conducts research with Dr. Winnie Chu, where they use radar observations of marine-ending glaciers to study the ice sheet-to-ice shelf transition. Recently, they joined forces with Dr.

Sara Delawalla is a third year EAS major and CS minor, focusing on oceanography. She conducts research with Dr. Takamitsu Ito on Southern Ocean nutrient cycles and their relationship to biological activity. This past summer, she interned at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, imaging and analyzing atmospheric data collected by the ICESat-2 satellite. She is also the Vice President of Operations of Georgia Tech’s chapter of Sigma Sigma Rho Sorority Inc.
