Every week, teams at the Virginia Tech Center for Ecosystem Forecasting make a trip to Falling Creek Reservoir in Vinton, Virginia. The reservoir is one of four that is managed by The Western Virginia Water Authority, and researchers for the center collect data to track the quality of water in the area.
The Department of Biological Sciences is at the center of life sciences research and teaching at Virginia Tech.
Our mission is to seamlessly integrate world-class research addressing the grand challenges of the 21st century,
from global change to human disease, by preparing the next generation of scientists.
