PhD student Jaya Kawale won the Best Student Paper award for her paper titled "Data Guided Discovery of Dynamic Climate Dipoles" at the NASA Conference on Intelligent Data Understanding (CIDU 2011). The paper was a joint work with authors from the University of Minnesota, North Carolina State University and Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The paper shows the utility of a graph-based approach to find teleconnections in climate data and uses the method as an alternate way for analyzing the performance of the various climate models used to study the global climate system. Jaya is advised by Prof. Vipin Kumar and works on the NSF Expeditions in Computing project entitled "Understanding Climate Change: A Data Driven Approach."
