EAGLE internship at CIAT in Colombia

Leonie, an 8th generation EAGLE, is currently doing her internship at
CIAT (International Center of Tropical Agriculture) in South America,
Colombia. She is part of the Multifuncional Landscapes group, which
investigates about soil organic carbon sequestration in tropical soils.
Leonie is working on the identification of hotspots in agricultural
areas that could serve for deep rooting rice-grass rotation systems for
improved carbon storage with the focus on food security. Thus, she is
working with digital soil mapping approaches using spatial and remote
sensing data and will soon be doing an on-site evaluation. At CIAT you
can enjoy a very nice campus in the countryside of Cali and Palmira,
where recently the COP16 was taking place. You get very interesting
insights into their on-campus field research or also by visiting the new
seeds bank for crop diversity. She will be staying in Colombia until
February from where she will then head to Svalbard for her second
internship.
