Biography
Science research journalist and contributing expert on sea level and sea-level rise. Prolific author of numerous articles on the subjects. WUWT lists 445 commentaries and articles. List of WUWT publications on sea level: https://wattsupwiththat.com/?s="Kip Hansen" Sea Level Educated in the pubic school system of Los Angeles, California followed by several tumultuous years at the University of California - Santa Barbara in the late 1960s -- shifting majors from Pre-Med-oriented to Religious Studies, mixed with radio broadcasting music and news, resulting in no degree. If it had been the 1930s, one could say I then "ran off to sea". I spent much of my adult life at sea, first as an officer on a merchant ship, and later as a USCG-licensed captain in the Caribbean, where he sailed with his wife while doing humanitarian work (mostly Dominican Republic). Retiring from IBM in the early 2000s, where I was involved with the development of a publishing system for efficiently creating dynamic web content, I began writing on Science, Nutrition, Math and Climate issues for the internet.
