^**Becky Brice is a Ph.D. candidate in the School of Geography and Development and the Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research (LTRR) at the University of Arizona. She receives support from the Climate Assessment of the Southwest. Her research interests include paleoclimatology, environmental extremes, and natural hazards. Her current work uses tree rings to investigate hydroclimatic change on the Colorado Plateau.
^***Christopher Fullerton is a Ph.D. student in the School of Geography and Development. He is also completing the Graduate Certificate in Water Policy and is working as a graduate research assistant as part of the WRRC's WaterRAPIDS program.
^****Kelsey L. Hawkes is a Rangeland Research Specialist in the School of Natural Resources and the Environment at the University of Arizona in Tucson, where she also earned both her Bachelors and Master's degrees in rangeland ecology, management, and restoration. Her work includes facilitating a co-development process designed to assist US Forest Service managers and ranchers to collaboratively increase preparation and management flexibility for drought on national forest livestock grazing allotments in the Southwest region. Ms. Hawkes is an active member of the Arizona Section of the Society for Range Management, holding various elected positions since 2011.
^*****Megan Mills-Novoa is a graduate student in the School of Geography and Development at the University of Arizona. Her research interests include Andean agricultural systems, climate change adaptation and mixed method approaches.
^******Brian F. O'Neill received his B.A in Environmental Studies from Washington & Jefferson College in May of 2014 where he focused on the interaction between the public—in the small, former oil town of Washington, Pennsylvania, where there has been recent intense fracking—and the manner in which fracking is framed by the media, politicians and external forces. In 2016 he received his M.S. from the University of Arizona. He has published, and is working on, several articles and book chapters about the construction of water policies in the Western United States, as well as about the specific interest of Arizona in the field of water management and policy in Western America. He works on ongoing efforts through the UMI-iGLOBES research team, a joint effort between the University of Arizona and the CNRS in Paris, France. Currently, Brian is a Ph.D. student at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in the Department of Sociology where he continues to work on environmental issues.
^*******Wincenty M. Pawlowski's interest in sustainability began during the 1970s oil crises, while in college at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. R. Buckminster Fuller was one of his idols at that time. He thought he would be a solar power engineer, but that career was cut short. After 27 years of other engineering work, he returned to school and graduated with a B.A. in Sustainable Community Development from Prescott College. He recently graduated from the University of Arizona Geography Department's graduate certificate program in Connecting Environmental Science to Decision-making. He is currently a consultant and president at Association for the Tree of Life.
