Vianey Rueda, PhD Candidate
Vianey Rueda, PhD Candidate
Vianey is a PhD student in the School for Environment and Sustainability. Her interdisciplinary approach is to combine socio-economic, hydrologic modeling, and a legal/political analysis in order to uncover holistic solutions. An important component of her research is the continued interaction with communities of the Texas-Mexico border and the co-production of knowledge.
Sam Schurkamp, PhD Student
Sam Schurkamp, PhD Student
Sam Schurkamp studies Great Lakes coastal wetlands through the lenses of environmental restoration and invasion ecology. His work looks at improving the monitoring of rare species, understanding the effects of climate change and water levels on plant communities, and synthesizing wild rice/manoomin knowledge across knowledge paradigms. In addition to his research interests, Sam is interested in science writing and photography to promote ecological knowledge to a broader audience.
