Show Notes
Today we are joined by Dr. Vanessa Buzzard, a senior research specialist at the University of Arizona School of Environmental and Natural Resources. Dr. Buzzard received her Ph.D. from the University of Arizona in 2017 where she focused on plant functional trait distribution, but has transitioned her studies from natural systems to urban environments. Today, she is a part of BIO5 member Laura Meredith’s lab where she questions the drivers of biodiversity and ecosystem function in relation to the effects of green infrastructure water management on soils in urban environments. Her research aims to quantify shifts in soil health in response to green stormwater infrastructure in Tucson.
