Grounded in science: CSU a global leader in soil carbon research, climate change solutions
As governments around the world strive to reduce heat-trapping emissions in the atmosphere, they need accurate assessments, innovative solutions and a skilled workforce with the technical know-how to implement those solutions. CSU has been providing the tools needed through intensive study of changes in soil carbon and greenhouse gas emissions for more than 50 years.
CSU researchers help chart U.S. course for removing carbon, reversing climate change
Scientists including Colorado State University Distinguished Professor Keith Paustian and members of his research team outline a path to decarbonization – and how much it will cost – in two high-profile national reports.
AI helping to unravel complexity of climate, weather and land use, find solutions to climate change
Colorado State University researchers are using AI to improve severe weather forecasts, make climate science discoveries and optimize land use for climate solutions.
AI: The good, the bad and the future
Colorado State University scientists and educators are working to develop “trustworthy” AI to solve grand challenges and train the next generation on how to use this powerful tool to benefit society.
Cameron Peak Fire yields collaboration, new discoveries and more questions
As the largest wildfire in Colorado history was burning west of Fort Collins in 2020, Colorado State University researchers were making plans to study its effects on the local watershed. As soon as they were permitted in the burn area – before the Cameron Peak Fire was completely extinguished – they were collecting data and making discoveries.
CSU and USDA scientists identify gap in U.S. greenhouse gas reporting
A recent study conducted at CSU examined the impacts of accounting for nitrous oxide emission pulses triggered by melting of snow and thawing of surface soil layers during spring in the United States.
Researchers study waterways following the state’s largest wildfire
Researchers said soils aren’t soaking up as much of the snow melt, which leads to more water in the rivers.
W.M. Keck Foundation awards CSU $1 million to study rare sugars fundamental to biology
The team will study some of the world’s most important biochemicals – sugars, including carbohydrates.
Five research teams selected for Catalyst for Innovative Partnership funding
The teams were selected from a competitive pool of applicants to pursue significant issues in our society using research partnerships to create new opportunities and solutions.
CSU team lands NSF award to study streams, snowpack in Cameron Peak Fire area
Researchers will study snowpack, streams and sediment in waterways affected by the largest wildfire in Colorado history.
