The Stroud Water Research Center will host a How Does Climate Change Affect Your Watershed program on April 12 at the Stroud Water Research Center Meetinghouse at 970 Spencer Road in Avondale, Chester County starting at 6:00 p.m.

Join Diana Oviedo-Vargas, Ph.D., Stroud Center scientist in the Biogeochemistry group, as she answers this question and explores the role of streams and rivers in the global carbon cycle.

Learn more about greenhouse gas emissions from our waters, their feedbacks on climate, and how the work of Stroud Center’s scientists can help us understand and mitigate some of the consequences of the changing climate on aquatic ecosystems.

There is also an Education Open House in the Moorhead Environmental Complex beginning at 6 p.m.

The program is sponsored by Citadel Federal Credit Union and the Victory Brewing Company.
