Two of Dr. Sánchez-Muñiz’ students, Rosanny De Leon and Michelle Madera, presented their research at the CUNY Celebration of Undergraduate Research on May 26, 2026, hosted at the John Jay College of Criminal Justice. Michelle presented findings on permafrost thaw under varying warming scenarios using a Stefan based conceptual model and site specific data from Fairbanks, Alaska. Rosanny shared her work on the model validation of Dr. María Sánchez's permafrost thaw conceptual energy model with the GIPL model, using real-world data from sites in Alaska.

Both of their projects were supported by the Department’s Rich Summer Research Internship.

Michelle won an award of Best Presentation from the CUNY Celebration!

Congratulations to both Rosanny and Michelle!
