2024 Freshwater@UW Summer Research Symposium

2024

48 Summer research students hosted a flash talk and poster session to share what they found after summer of mentored research. Water@UW-Madison and the Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences welcomed a crowd of over 200 to the event. Conversations we abuzz, about emerging contaminants, urban pond ecology, groundwater quality, climate change, and more.

Students presented 1-minute flash talks, which when combined, illuminated an incredible cross-section of atmospheric, oceanographic, and water research across the state of Wisconsin.
