Graduate Student Listed as Top 21 Professionals Influencing LCA Landscape

Muzan Williams Ijeoma Muzan Williams Ijeoma is a rising star in Environmental Engineering, specializing in Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Techno-Economic Evaluation of Sustainable Building Materials. He is considered one of the top 21 Professionals influencing LCA landscapes. Currently pursuing a PhD at Clemson University, his research focuses on comparing timber, steel, and concrete structures to […]

Lakes, Ponds and Ecosystems

Lakes and ponds aren’t just scenic—they’re dynamic ecosystems. A new study reveals that rising temperatures are extending summer stratification, leading to oxygen loss in deep waters. This triggers the release of elements like arsenic, iron, and manganese from sediments—sometimes increasing levels by up to 5,000x. EEES researchers found these changes in a South Carolina reservoir once used for […]

Greenhouse | HFF

Students for Stewardship was founded by Biosystems Engineering students Andrew Evans and Paige Farral to unite students from all backgrounds around a shared mission of ecological restoration, sustainable design, and hands-on land stewardship. Their primary project is the Hunnicutt Food Forest (HFF), a growing biodiversity park near Kite Hill on Clemson University’s campus. The group […]

Undergraduate Researchers Making Waves in Biosystems Engineering

Bioretention Cells As part of their Departmental Honors project in Biosystems Engineering, Jack Cuneo & Allison Curl are researching temperature dynamics in bioretention cells on the campus of Clemson University in Dr. Sahoo’s lab at the South Carolina Water Resources Center. Specifically, they utilize iButton high-frequency temperature sensors to monitor temperature variation across bioretention cells […]
