Adrian Wiegman
I am the Learning Coordinator and Data Specialist for Living Observatory. Feel free reach out to me with any question you have about Living Observatory!
I am also a scientist focused on the intersection between wetlands, water quality, agriculture, and human development. I apply biogeochemistry, ecosystem ecology, geospatial analysis, process modeling and data science to conduct research that informs decision making for natural resource management. I am interested in telling stories about how trends in global change influence the relationship between local communities and the landscape.
Current Projects
- Modeling watershed nitrogen load attenuation resulting from wetland restoration of cranberry bogs in southeastern Massachusetts
- Factors that influence nutrient loading in renovated cranberry farms planted with high yielding hybrid varieties
- Net phosphorus retention in historically farmed riparian wetlands and in geographically isolated wetlands
