Amid the current pandemic situation prohibiting students and faculty from working on campus, the Ecohydrology Research Group has had its first remote thesis defence. Shengde Yu, a member of the Ecohydrology Research Group, successfully defended his MSc thesis today. His thesis is titled "Modeling Phosphorus Cycling in a Seasonally Stratified Reservoir (Fanshawe Reservoir, Ontario, Canada)". Shengde was supervised by Dr. Philippe Van Cappellen, and the other members of the examination committee included Dr. Chris Parsons (Environment and Climate Change Canada) and Dr. Nandita Basu (University of Waterloo).
Photos were not permitted during the remote defence, but the group did take a photo during the post-defence virtual celebration. Congratulations Shengde!
