Jaron Borg

Jaron came to the UVM Engineering and Mathematics Department in January 2008. Jaron is working with USGS Water Center support and using ¹⁰Be adhered to sediments in an attempt to understand the sources of suspended sediment in the Winooski River basin. This isotopic work is closely linked to the physical monitoring of stream bank erosion he is also doing.
