interview
Perhaps the best general introduction to my work is a booklet written with a colleague and friend for policymakers and water resource managers describing how freshwater climate change impacts shifts the discussion about freshwater management, conservation of species dependent on freshwater resources, and people, livelihoods, and economic behavior that rely on dependable water (download here; size about 3 mb).

In the past, I've also done some interviews in the role of a biologist. Most of this attention has been about my research on dragonfly migration, but some are also focused on current work. These interviews have included National Geographic (pictured here in progress with Dennis Paulson and Jennifer Ackerman, also in Spain), the Jasper News Boy, the San Antonio Express-News, the Austin-American Statesman, Popular Science (don't know if this ever made it into print or not), and the Playa Lakes Joint Venture; the latter includes both a podcast (below) and a print interview from the following month. (Note that the print interview talks about comparing ecological communities of today to the past and mention 5, 10, or 20 years — I said or meant to say thousands of years.) There's also a recent popular paper that's been published on aquatic insects and climate change in Xerces available online.


Podcasts and Streaming Talks
Three recordings of talks I've given have been published at least in part online:

May 2008:
final talk at the AFS Western Division Bull Trout symposium; this one includes the PPT as well as the full soundtrack; this is a fairly general talk about climate adaptation and how it affects science and conservation from a freshwater perspective

Winter 2008: the
Playa Lakes Joint Venture

May 2006:
Texas Water Matters talk
