    Episode 50: Rethinking groundwater use in arid agriculture

    Sustainable irrigation starts with understanding how water moves through the entire system. Every interaction—from where it originates to where it’s taken off, stored, or lost—influences a crop’s ability to survive, especially in arid regions like Utah, USA and Punjab, India, where every drop matters. In this episode, PhD candidate Tejinder Singh joins us to discuss his research in soil hydraulics, evapotranspiration modeling, and sustainable irrigation.

    Episode 49: Extending agricultural education to build local soil health

    Scientific advancements only matter if they reach the people and places they’re meant to benefit. That’s why Dr. Jake Mowrer and other Extension Professors in Texas A&M’s AgriLife program work to bring the university’s research on soil nutrients and water management directly to the Texas community who can use it. Join Jake as he discusses new insights on effectively implementing biochar, understanding phosphatase activity, and the vital role extension plays in bridging the gap between academic research and the real-world application.

    Episode 47: Bridging the data divide between ecology and infrastructure

    The story of the energy transition is told in many languages: meter-scale satellite imagery, hyperlocal atmospheric data, ecological sustainability studies, infrastructure sustainability studies and more. Understanding the full story requires researchers to harmonize data collected across political lines and scientific disciplines at different scales, on varying platforms, and by organizations with varying assumptions and methodologies. In this episode, Dr. Michael Young talks about his approach to bringing all these elements together into collaborative systems that serve all stakeholders.

    Episode 44: How soil thermal and moisture data drive renewable energy in Germany

    Kai-Julian Hendler is a geotechnical consulting engineer at Boley Geotechnik in Munich, Germany. He holds a master’s degree in Civil Engineering, with a specialization in geotechnical engineering from the University of Lisbon. Over the past 8 years working at Boley Geotechnik, he has been a site engineer on port construction projects in South Africa, Guinea, and Australia. In his current role, he focuses on the geotechnical challenges of infrastructure projects for railways, metros, and roads. Christoph Verschaffel-Drefke is a Geotechnical Engineering and Hydrology Coordinator for Transnet BW, a transmission systems operator in Germany. After getting his degree in Geoscience Engineering, he worked on several research projects based around the heat dissipation of underground cables. During his 6 years working at TransnetBW, he has overseen projects relating to thermal soil investigation, thermal dimensioning, bedding materials of cables, and heat emissions.
