Earth Stories: A Collection of Essays and Articles

The Knowing Earth White Papers are a portfolio of short documents that address specific questions or issues. This includes workflows to complete specific tasks, such as building a paleoDEM (past landscapes), interrogating climate model results or how to generate hypsometric curves or topographic filters for landscape analysis. We have included pdfs from our blogs on both the Knowing Earth and Pauls Paleo Pages websites. To access the files please click on each of the images, which shows what the file is about.

This was originally written before the COVID pandemic took over our lives. But much of what I wrote then still applies to. What is the next step for hydrocarbon exploration in a rapidly changing world?
Picture
With the growing application of AI to investigate 'big data', a critical concern is knowing how good the data is that you are using. Much of my academic and industry career has been concerned in building large databases. Here are some of the lessons I have learned.
Picture
Mapping using GIS (Geographic Information Systems) has become de rigueur across the Earth sciences. But do we ever think about why we use the map symbology we do?
