UM BRIDGES Trainee Ada Smith presents Science from the Saddle
Ada Smith is a PhD student in the W.A. Franke College of Forestry & Conservation at the University of Montana with an interdisciplinary research focus on agricultural decision-making and climate adaptation in Montana. Ada is particularly interested in understanding the ways in which producers experience, adapt, and respond to climate change in light of climate information.
Western Landowners Alliance recently published an article by Ada titled Science From The Saddle: The Importance of Story
Ada’s internship at Mannix Ranch was supported by the UM BRIDGES program, which trains future leaders from diverse backgrounds to advance societally-relevant science toward more sustainable food-energy-water (FEW) systems.
