Talk:Lisa Welp

PEER REVIEW
STRENGTHS -GOOD DESCRIPTION OF THE MAIN COMPONENTS OF HER RESEARCH -CLEARLY LAY OUT HER CONTRIBUTIONS TO HER FIELD -

WEAKNESSES -NEEDS LEADING STATEMENT ABOUT LISA -NEEDS CITATIONS -RESEARCH SECTION IS SLIGHTLY BIASED: WORDS LIKE "FAMOUS" -CITE HER NATURE ARTICLE ABOUT EL NINO -

Recommendations: -Maybe consider chronological order of her work and jobs (doesnt really matter, it might work better, but might not) -Consider introducing awards and fellowships in a slightly different way. it feels a teeny bit redundant, and maybe could be formatted in a way that is less of a list. -As said in class, try to cite sources of awards directly from their webssite not just C.V. (its hard and not always possible, but good to not rely just on one self published source).

Becca's comments
change Dr. Lisa Welp to Lisa Welp

in your info box, after her current position i would list her postdoctoral positions

Early Life & Education section remove "early life" subtitle

suggested edits: Dr. Welp's obtained her undergraduate degree in Chemistry (minor in Geology) in 2000 from Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana.

Career & Research section suggested edits: Dr. Welp is currently an Assistant Professor at Purdue University in Earth, Atmosphere, and Planetary sciences. Prior to this, Welp was an Assistant Project Scientist (2012-2014) and Postdoctoral Scholar (2008-2012) at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UCSD and postdoctoral Research Associate & Lecturer at Yale University (2006-2008).

Her work with the Keeling CO2 Lab led to greater understanding of how ENSO (El Nino Southern Oscillation) effects the redistribution of moisture which is reflected in the d18O-CO2 signal (the isotopic shift in precipitation is transferred to respired CO2). This analysis suggested that global estimates of gross primary production (GPP) were too low and revised them upwards to 150-170 Pg C per year (cite nature paper).

do you see how the above - gives some of her history but also talks about what she contributed to science? do the same for some of her other contributions.

you need to add more about her research photos?

Link "El Nino Southern Oscillation" to the wikipedia page about this. do the same for other things she studies (you can link the isotopes to isotope pages) - i would suggest getting the special characters for the isotopes in word and seeing if you can cut and paste. not sure - they probably have another way to use special characters

Change Awards & Fellowships to a list each award should be a bullet point (the other ones should be deleted - you need to try to find verification of these) Great Lakes Chief Scientist Training Cruise Award BASIN young investigator travel grant EPA Science to Achieve Results (STAR) Fellowship

Nice start. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Waterbarnes (talk • contribs) 21:49, 15 September 2018 (UTC)
