Makenzie Holmes, a registered nurse, is well aware of the damages poor air quality can wreak on public health. As an undergraduate research assistant at USU Uintah Basin, she worked to inform policy and regulation to improve emissions that can worsen Utah’s air quality during inversions.
Researchers at Utah State University exist on the cutting edge of science, constantly facilitating access to data and information to make informed decisions. The Institute of Land, Water, and Air was created in 2021 to connect researchers from USU to problem solvers and key decision makers around Utah to improve quality of life for all residents.
