Jorge A. Villa of our School of Geosciences has been awarded a $215,000 grant from the Department of Energy,Terrestrial Ecosystem Science Program, to study possible improvements to methane predictions from wetland ecosystems by integrating observations of biological components (microorganisms and plants) at multiple scales.
