 Just this morning, WEEL's very own Jorge Ramos successfully defended his Ph.D. dissertation: "Methane and Nitrous Oxide Fluxes from Water, Plants, and Soils of a Constructed Treatment Wetland in Phoenix, AZ." Jorge came to ASU in 2010 and shortly after decided to join our lab to study urban wetlands. He was interested in understanding the tradeoffs between ecosystem services (namely water treatment) and disservices (namely greenhouse gas production) at the Tres Rios Constructed Treatment Wetland. His work builds on years of WEEL research at Tres Rios, and offers valuable new techniques and insights in understanding greenhouse gas emissions in urban wetlands.
Jorge very recently signed a job offer with Conservation International, where he will be leading their Blue Carbon initiative, focusing specifically on coastal wetlands throughout Latin America. We know he will go on to do big things in this position and beyond. Congrats, Jorge!

For the past two weeks, my fellow undergrad research intern partner, Claire, and I have been working on a presentation together reviewing pig therapy/animal-assisted therapy research and how we can use these findings to shape our own mini pig therapy programs. In scrolling through Google Scholar, we found close to zero articles in which pigs were utilized as a therapeutic resource for human health. Most of the research done on animal-assisted therapy focuses on dogs, though we also found studies that investigated the therapeutic effects of farm animal (cow, goat, horse, etc.) interactions on human participants. It was frustrating to not have a clear model on which to base the development of our own work, but it was also exciting because it meant that we were entering a novel field and paving the way for future studies on the effects of using mini pigs in therapy. Now, we had to present our findings, and that was a whole other story for me… Leave a Reply. |
