Claire Madden is completing her Masters in Environmental Science and Management in the Bren School at the University of California at Santa Barbara. Their multi-faceted summer research spans environmental justice in the California Central Valley, large groundwater spatial dataset collation and analyses, and field hydrology in a coastal California watershed. Strategically, Claire's research will lead to better maps of areas undergoing groundwater depletion and where groundwater quality is threatened by modern-era and geogenic contaminants in California and beyond.
