Despite pandemic, state and UW employees raise millions for charities March 9, 2021
More information
Even a global pandemic cannot suppress the generosity of thousands of State, University and UW Health employees in Dane County.
When state and campus workplaces emptied last year, Partners in Giving, the State, University and UW Health Employees Combined Campaign of Dane County, used virtual special events like online trivia and bingo to reach out to employees and raise over $2 million in charitable donations.
“Turning a fundraising campaign based on human interaction into something entirely online was daunting at first,” said Tammy Kuhn-Martin, Co-Chair of the Partners in Giving Administrative Board.
Drones help researchers get better look at groundwater contamination
Wisconsin State Farmer
University of Wisconsin-Madison researchers are developing new techniques to evaluate groundwater contamination using drones to get a bird s eye view.
Hydroecologist David Hart and licensed drone operator Grace Graham are using infrared data captured by drones to protect groundwater and improve the state s drinking water quality. Graham is a part of the Wisconsin Geological & Natural History Survey, a limb of the UW Division of Extension.
The infrared data helps them detect temperature changes via soil thickness, which is much more difficult to do by hand. The goal is to prevent groundwater contamination on farms due to runoff and fertilizers. The pair is conducting most of their research in Kewaunee County on the northeastern end of the state, where groundwater contamination is a prominent issue.
