WHY I CHOSE TO ATTEND THE USF MAKING WAVES
I chose to attend this REU to get experience in undergraduate research and to broaden my knowledge of this field. I will be working in Dr. Brad Rosenheim’s lab on carbon and nitrogen isotope concentration within restored and natural mangrove forests along the Gulf Coast of Florida.
