Chad 2012
This map illustrates satellite-detected standing flood waters over affected areas of the three border countries located around the Lake Chad: Nigeria, Cameroon and Chad. The situational map shows the flood extent as of 30 October 2012, detected with MODIS imagery, Eastern and southern parts of Chad, as well as the confluence area located close to Kousseri town have been hit by floods caused by heavy rains. Notes: The exact limit of flood waters is uncertain because of the low spatial resolution of the satellite data used for this analysis. Detected water bodies likely reflect an underestimation of all flood-affected areas within the map extent. This analysis has not yet been validated in the field.

Carrie Weddle interview (November 16, 2012)
At a young age, Carrie Weddle knew what her life’s calling would be and where she needed to go to obtain this goal. Due to her parent’s insistence, Weddle decided on a
career in nursing. In 1960, segregation forced her to leave her home of Mississippi and
migrate north to Milwaukee to obtain her college degree. Near thirty years later and in a supervisory management role in nursing, Weddle was not content with her one degree and decided to obtain further education. She went on to receive her Master’s in Nursing in 1990, and her PhD in Nursing in 1996. Weddle cherishes her time spent in college and the relationships and friends she maintains to this day that she met through her experiences at the university. She now devotes her time to her family, friends, and volunteer work with local schools
