August 2016: Watershed Week

This month, I was honored to be invited to speak at this year's Watershed Week training for local teachers involved in the STRAW program! It was fun to meet some of the many educators who are dedicated to habitat restoration with their students, and to share with them some of the early results of our global meta-analysis of carbon sequestration rates in riparian zones. Spoiler alert: There is a lot of carbon in those trees!

Today I'm also celebrating the overhaul of this website! I'm hoping to regularly post news and updates about my adventures in conservation research, mostly to remind myself to stop and reflect every once in a while. I was never much of a journal-keeper, but here's to a new beginning!
