Swamped Podcast Series

ByStreaming Science

We’re excited to introduce the Swamped podcast series — a collection of interviews with scientists at different points in their career about wetlands.

Produced by Charles Overdevest and Dr. Jamie Loizzo of the University of Florida’s Department of Agricultural Education and Communication (UF AEC), this series was a part of a research project funded by the University of Florida’s University Scholars Program.

Each episode brings you into a unique conversation with a scientist whose work involves the study of wetlands.

Learn about their research and why they think wetlands are worth conserving.
