Description
What does a career in environmental monitoring actually look like? 🌧️🌱
For Jasmine, it’s maintaining monitoring equipment, checking sensors and analysing data to understand how water moves through the environment and how soil moisture changes over time.
In this episode of #CuriousByNature, I visit the UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology (UKCEH) to spend the day with Jasmine and discover how environmental monitoring can help shape the future of farming.
From clearing blocked rain gauges to checking sensors that measure soil moisture and evaporation, we explore the practical skills and technology helping scientists understand changing environmental conditions.
After studying zoology and witnessing the effects of extreme heat and drought while living in Australia, Jasmine was inspired to help protect the natural world. Now, her work contributes to research into floods and droughts, which pose growing challenges for farmers and food production. 🌍
Because feeding the world takes more than one path — and this is one of them.
Follow along as we uncover more careers shaping the future of agriculture and food production. ✨ Explore the campaign: https://www.fwi.co.uk/sp/campaign/curious-by-nature
