The Water Institute is excited to host its inaugural event showcasing the research of early career faculty. Covering topics such as climate smart agriculture, remote sensing of freshwater lakes, GHG dynamics in waterbodies and interconnections in water-energy-food systems, eight faculty members from across four faculties and six departments/schools will share a glimpse into their research on October 31st.
“We welcome this opportunity to showcase the research being conducted by our early career faculty members,” says Roy Brouwer, Executive Director of the Water Institute. “It’s a great opportunity to meet new colleagues, learn about their research programs and identify potential opportunities for collaboration.”
