Glad to be here on Mastodon! Here's our #introduction:
We're four PhD researchers at Trinity looking at different aspects of agricultural nutrient pollution. Our project is one of the E3 Kinsella Challenge projects aimed at addressing environmental challenges with interdisciplinary research.
See the toot below to meet our team!
