Achievement

In March, 2013, IGERT Trainees Jacob Carter and Tony Layzell, and IGERT Associate Saatvika Rai organized and hosted a symposium, BEYOND THE LONG HOT SUMMER: The Future of Water in Kansas. The symposium was open to the public and attracted more than 150 attendees. It was an opportunity for students and the community to hear varied perspectives of Kansas experts about the impacts of climate change on drought, water resources, and agriculture. The event was moderated by Rex Buchanan, Director, Kansas Geological Survey.
