Wetlands and Carbon Storage on The Science Pawdcast
I had the pleasure of being a guest on Season 2 of The Science Pawdcast. We chatted about how soils and wetlands are important for carbon storage and mitigating climate change.
Chantel J. Chizen
PhD Candidate - Soil Science
Hello! My name is Chantel Chizen and I am a PhD Candidate in the Department of Soil Science at the University of Saskatchewan. My PhD research investigates wetland soil carbon storage in agricultural landscapes across the Prairie Pothole Region. I was introduced to the field of soil science during my undergraduate degree and was fascinated by its relevance across various sectors like agriculture, forestry, and environmental conservation. My favourite aspects of soil science are the field courses and the inspiring community of soil scientists. When I’m not working on my research, I enjoy exploring the outdoors, playing board games, and practicing yoga.
