On the show today we have Diya Kamnani, a current PhD student studying atmospheric rivers. Hear about the health benefits of a gin and tonic, how you identify an atmospheric river, how pilots take atmospheric rivers into account for their flight plans, Diya's work with invasive species (and how her skills in the earth sciences translated there), and international versions of American fast food chains.
