Welcome to my page! I'm not very active these days, but feel free to leave me a message, especially if you want a hand with an Earth-science-type article. And if I don't reply... then the Wikipedia message was likely filtered in my email notifications, so Google search my name and send me an email directly ; )
 
[[User:Awickert|Andy Wickert]] ([[User talk:Awickert|talk]]) 19:15, 1 May 2015 (UTC)
My name is Andrew Wickert. Here I go by Andy or Andrew or Awickert or awickert. I have a [http://instaar.colorado.edu/~wickert/doku.php?id=home website]. I am a geologist (or maybe a geophysicist) who works on (1) [[sediment transport]] and sedimentary processes, (2) process [[geomorphology]], and (3) Earth response to glacial-hydro-isostatic adjustment. I also dabble in glaciers because most of my research group works on them.
 
==About me==
I've had a Wikipedia account since Fall 2007, and have been active since Summer 2008. If you want to get in touch with me or help with something, you may leave me a message on my talk page or email me. I will respond, and I may or may not be able to say or do something useful.
 
I am an [https://www.esci.umn.edu/people/Andy-Wickert assistant professor in the Department of Earth Sciences] at the [[University of Minnesota]] and at the [http://www.safl.umn.edu/researchgroup/andy-wickert Saint Anthony Falls Laboratory]. I research rivers, glaciers, sea-level, and water resources in the past and present ([https://www.esci.umn.edu/groups/surface/ research group page]), and in particular work to understand the mechanics and rates of their response to various drivers, including climate and land-use change. I also lead [http://northernwidget.com/ Northern Widget LLC], an [[open-source]] technology company that incorporates modern technology to build high-quality field instrumentation at affordable prices.
My username is my abbreviated name because it was my 8-character [[kerberos (protocol)|kerberos]] login, and thereby became a part of my on-computer-identity. I'm debating making it lowercase (to be like my kerberos), making it my full name, or just leaving it the same as to not confuse people. The third option takes the least work, so that's the most likely continued state of affairs.
 
==Some links==
 
*[[User:Awickert/Sandbox]]
Line 21 ⟶ 25:
 
==Current Project==
[Life!]
*Create articles and a main page for the Cambrian and Ordovician stratigraphy of the Upper Midwestern United States
 
==To-Do list==
 
*Sed transport clean-up and split into sub-articles
*Structural geology ref's
*Sed transport clean-up
*Exner equation: revise, fully cite, get better permissions than "Fair Use" for the image, get an assessment
*Categorize 3 most recent articles created
*Look at [[Manning formula]], [[Hack's law]], [[Playfair's Law]], WP university stuff
*[[Bar (river morphology)]] and [[shoal]]
*Look at Castle
*[[Gravel bar]] needs a lot of work - I'd like to organize all of the bar articles as well
*Pick apart [[shoal]] into the appropriate landforms via all its redirects and related articles.
*[[Tensor]]
*[[Climate Change]] - geology part
*Create article on [[concordia diagram]]
*[[Pole shift hypothesis]]: define, fork off to change in obliquity and TPW, and general education of relationship to mass media / entertainment
* Figure out where to put [[Wave-formed ripple]]
*[[Landscape evolution model]]: expand, maybe try for a DYK because I don't know how that works. Run CHILD and make an animation / figure with GT's permission.
*Create articles and a main page for the Cambrian and Ordovician stratigraphy of the Upper Midwestern United States
*Flexural isostasy stuff: make some animations with my model once I publish something on it that is good enough to cite
*[[River]] needs to move into this century in terms of the geomorphology
*Would be nice to make [[geology]] a featured article; seems very hard, but WP should have core articles be featured. Will I ever get to it?
*Make something that ties together glacial-hydro-isostatic adjustment, geoid changes, and sea level, in a way that is understandable, especially with current interest and concerns in the [[Holocene]] and climate change.
*Maybe do a 1D model run of a glacier to make illustrations of its response to climate
*[[Mantle wedge]] - Expand and link to
*[[Flux melting]]
*Reference and link to [[slab (geology)]]
*Fix my goofs in [[Playfair's Law]]
*Write [[Colorado River Extensional Corridor]]
*[[Flat-slab subduction]]: yes, I opened that box
*Merges:
**Merge [[Bench (geology)]], [[Terrace (geology)]], and [[Marine terrace]]
**Corrasion = old term. Merge with [[abrasion (geology)]]
**Merge [[Cosmogenic radionuclide dating]] and [[Surface exposure dating]]
*Look at [[Stream power law]]
