His research focuses on carbon storage and the modelling of greenhouse gas emissions in agroecosystems. Dr. Amadi teaches at USASK and has made significant contributions to undergraduate education across disciplines including agriculture, soil science, environmental science, and renewable resource management. He is passionate about advancing cutting-edge research and environmental modelling to develop best management practices and practical solutions for mitigating global climate change.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClint Hunker\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ehas painted the landscape in Saskatchewan since the age of 16. He studied visual art at the University of Victoria and the University of Saskatchewan and holds a Master of Fine Arts. He has been the recipient of awards and grants including the Judith Poole Award in 1987 and grants from the Saskatchewan Arts Board. He has instructed for the University of Saskatchewan since 1987. Clint Hunker's recent works are explorations in oil, working predominately on site. They are a personal examination of solitude and silence within the northern landscape, focusing upon periods of subdued colour; waning light and the moodiness of late fall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eImage: \u003cem\u003eMelting Fields on the Bergheim Road, 1982\u003c\/em\u003e.
