Bryce Carleton '22
Fieldwork, data collection, grant writing, and presenting
As a student, Bryce collaborated with Associate Professor Stephanie Hurley of the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences to write a grant proposal, which resulted in a UVM undergraduate research award.
With his grant, Bryce worked with Stephanie, a postdoctoral associate, and a graduate student to study biorention systems—high-tech rain gardens that catch, slow, and filter stormwater runoff from rooftops, roadways, and other human-made surfaces. The research informs the design of future green stormwater infrastructure best management practices in Vermont to help clean water flowing to downstream ecosystems.
Bryce presented his findings at the UVM Student Research Conference. He also shared his grant writing and research experience at a UVM Office of Fellowships, Opportunities and Undergraduate Research event to help other undergraduates get started in research.
