It’s sapapalooza! We’ve been quite busy assembling sap flow sensors for use at the White Creek Watershed and on the LID project. Below: Cat Suarez tests one of the thermocouples using a multimeter.
Texas A&M awarded grant for Costa Rica REU
The Costa Rica REU in Ecohydrology is getting some good press. Research in the cloud forest is an exciting opportunity, and I’m looking forward to working with undergraduates on it next summer. Be sure to stay tuned for updates on it and the application process.
