NMSU solar research cohort at world’s largest Earth and space science conference
- Eight NMSU students from Juie Shetye's solar physics group presented at AGU Fall Meeting in New Orleans.
- AGU is the world’s largest conference for Earth and space science, attracting 25,000 attendees from 100+ countries.
- All eight students submitted abstracts; seven presented posters, one delivered an oral talk.
- The presentations covered space weather, solar activity, and atmospheric calibration using interdisciplinary approaches.
- Kumar gave a 10-minute oral presentation on solar brightening regions tied to solar flare warnings.
- Students described the experience as important for understanding science as teamwork, not work done alone.
- Navarrete highlighted building a space for herself within the scientific community.
- Sanchez and Hallet presented posters later in the week on solar energy movement and atmospheric calibration.
- The work represents a milestone for the group and demonstrates how mentorship supports student researchers.
