For the next twelve months I will be traveling to river deltas around the world as a Thomas J. Watson Fellow. I am a human ecologist who has worked with plants, law makers, loggers, stone flies, and rivers in Coastal Maine; children, salt marshes, fishermen, land trusts, and Quakers in Southern New Jersey; and tortoises in the Mojave desert. During my year abroad I will be combining these interests and experiences by living in and meeting researchers, managers, and community members in the Venetian lagoon, Mackenzie, Ganges/Brahmaputra, Mekong, and Colorado river deltas.
Mine is The Eden River, in The North of England.
