Watcharee Ruairuen received a Ph.D. in natural resources and
sustainability. Her dissertation is titled “Evapotranspiration in a Subarctic
Agroecosystem: Field Measurements, Modeling and Sustainability Perspectives.” She found that evapotranspiration comprised a large portion of the energy balance in a high latitude agroecosystem. Understanding surface energy dynamics is important to understanding the vulnerabilities of Alaska agriculture to climate change.
Watcharee earned a bachelor’s degree in 2002 and a M.S.
degree in 2006 from Walailak University in Thailand. Her primary professors
included Research Professor Elena Sparrow of SNRE and Associate Professor Gilberto Fochesatto of the
Geophysical Institute.
