Title A name given to the resource Cooling Effect of Trees on Vassar College’s Campus Subject The topic of the resource Impact of trees on Vassar College campus Description An account of the resource Our project explored how tree shade affects the indoor temperature and overall comfort of dorm buildings at Vassar College. By collecting indoor and outdoor temperature data from dorms with varying levels of surrounding tree coverage, we examined whether foliage shade helps reduce heat buildup on and around residence halls. The study highlights how increasing tree coverage and strategically planting new trees could improve living conditions for students by making campus housing more comfortable during the warmer months.

Title A name given to the resource Corn Production and Water Nitrate Levels in the US Subject The topic of the resource environmental health Description An account of the resource Nitrogen fertilizer is heavily used in agriculture, including on corn. When more nitrogen is provided to plants than they need, it’s converted into nitrate and enters our waterways. High nitrate levels can be harmful to human health, as well as the environment. One impact is the creation of low-oxygen areas in water, known as “dead zones,” most notably the dead zone in the Gulf of Mexico.
