| Brief Bio: | ||
| I am an environmental scientist interested in what happens when plants and water meet during storms - rain, snow, sleet, or otherwise. In my "Wet Plant Lab," we enjoy researching the roles that wet plants play in our Earth's energy balance, nutrient cycles, and landscape ecology. We also collaborate with artists (including art students) to communicate our findings in comics and videos. So, if you are a student interested in natural science or art projects related to wet plants, please get in touch! | ||
