NGRREC Research Team

In August of 2022, me and several others signed up to have NGRREC as our community partner.  During the first year under John Matta, we worked in our research teams to try and understand place, and how it relates to climate and ecology.  We were exposed to HTML coding, learned about AI and how OpenAI learning systems like chat GPT function, learned how to check the Twitter API under the guidance of computer science URCA students, learned how to do collaborative presentations, and research online trend data. 

Due to our commitment to NGRREC, Dr. Paige Mettler-Cherry, Director of Strategic Operations, allowed us to be special interns during their summer programing. There we collaborated with NGRREC in a variety of activities, learning about wetlands, ecology, and community outreach.
