Congratulations to our students Kellsie Shrack and Bryant Willis from our ANRIM lab group! Kellsie and Bryant each won a prize of $250 at the Undergraduate Research Awards.

Kellsie's study was entitled "Spatio-Temporal Analysis of Nutrient Cycling in Wetland Ecosystems (How Wetland Morphology and Surrounding Land Use Influence Nitrite and Nitrate Dynamics.)"

Bryant's study was entitled "Assessing Farm-Scale Sediment Transport and Erosion Hotspots Within Ohio’s HUC12s Using Sentinel-2 Satellite Imagery with Machine Learning in Google Earth Engine Platform."

Again, congratulations!

Nowadays, farmers have many tools available for monitoring soil health.

Farmers and soil scientists are starting to use clever tech to reliably measure changes in soil condition.

Last week, with the help of ANRIM student worker Kellsie Shrack, I gave a demonstration to a few summer camp students on how we collect certain water quality data from the Little Miami River. That contraption in my hands is a hollow, plastic cylinder strapped to a cinder block; the inside of the cylinder will house a device called a sonde. The entire arrangement then gets submerged. Sondes can monitor a variety of parameters (such as pH and dissolved oxygen levels) at set time intervals and be tapped at a later date in order to gather the information.
