Teaching Highlights:

December 2012: Students in Soil, Plant, Atmosphere and Water Interactions completed were exposed to a variety of field methods and completed the semester with an introduction to soil physics using HYDRUS 1-D. The Solid Waste Management class completed field trips to the local MRF, composting facility and waste-to-energy facility during the semester. They also prepared informational pamphlets about solid waste as part of writing across the curriculum.

April 2012: Congratulations to the ERE/FEG Seniors that completed the Capstone Engineering Design course (ERE 489). Student projects included: Design of Land Cover and Wetland System on a Former Manufactured Gas Plant Site, Utica, NY; Master Plan and Analysis for the Revitalization of the Scajaquada Creek Corridor, Erie County, NY; Design and Sustainability Analysis of a Combined Sewer Overflow Disinfection System, Oswego, NY; Design and Analysis of the Urban Forest to Improve Ecosystem Services, Syracuse, NY; and Design and Feasibility Assessment of Wastewater Sludge and Landfill Gas Management System, Auburn, NY.

May 2010: FEG 489 students completed five service learning projects that involved community partners on projects related to stormwater management. controlled environment agriculture, and wastewater treatment.

February 2010: The FEG 489 engineering students traveled to Lyons Falls to kickoff their joint project with the LSA670/ LSA470 Studio in Landscape & Urban Ecology. This collaborative effort between classes brings Landscape Architecture and Forest Engineering students together on a service learning project that will (hopefully) enhance the learning across disciplines.

January 2010: FEG 489 students are commencing their semester-long capstone design projects including: Wastewater Treatment Plant Upgrades; Low-Impact Design for Stormwater Management Systems; and Brownfield Redevelopment and Controlled Environment Agriculture.

November 2009: My guest lecture on principles and practice of ecological engineering was given to Urban Ecology, an interdisciplinary class of undergraduate students, can be viewed here.

September 2009: Graduate students in ERE 796 learn about water fluxes in the vadose zone by measuring infiltration rate with the double ring infiltrometer and hydraulic conductivity with the Guelph permeameter.

April 2009: FEG 489 Engineering Design completed their semester capstone design projects. Posters and oral presentations capped off the semester on the following projects:
