“Part of conquering the West was being able to understand a completely new environment, so there was a concerted effort by the US Government and volunteer observers to measure tides, river flow, water depths, and water temperature as early as the 1840s. We can use this data today to reconstruct a spatial view of a pristine system absent of human modification.”

The grant will also allow Stefan to work closely with high school science teachers so that they can develop locally relevant, next-generation science curricula and inspire students to pursue STEM fields of research.
