RACC Interns at UVM: Vermont Agricultural in a Changing Climate

RACC intern Marissa Goodwin worked with Dr. Carol Adair (Rubenstein School - Climate Change Science) on a project involving Vermont Agricultural in a Changing Climate. This long-term, collaborative project seeks to work with farmers, agricultural service providers, researchers, and community organizations to address the impacts of climate change on agriculture in Vermont. The project focuses on evaluating and implementing on-farm climate change adaptation and mitigation practices.

Marissa used the gas chromatograph (GC) to determine the types of greenhouse gases present: carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O).
