Prof. Rosario was recently awarded a new NSF grant to study the impact of wildfires on the formation and mobilization of disinfection byproduct precursors. The 3-year grant, which also includes Dr. Julie Korak, a CU alumni now at the Bureau of Reclamation, and Drs. Thomas Borch and Robert Young from CSU, will focus on the changes that occur to soil organic matter during a wildfire and how this impacts the mobilization of organic matter into water afterwards.
