#HaikuYourResearch
Share your work through poetry
SciComm at its best!
Since 2020, the Water Quality Technical Committee has run the #HaikuYourResearch challenge to get researchers thinking about their work in new ways. There are hundreds of haikus on Twitter now, and we’re looking forward to more later this fall!
2022 Competition
The Water Quality Technical Committee is once again hosting its #HaikuYourResearch competition.
This competition is open to students and early career researchers. The submissions must be made by the Dec. 7 deadline and can either be tweeted at @AGU_WQ or entered via a Google Form.
Five submissions will receive $200 each! Please share widely to your respective communities.

Visit wetlands on the way
Release more carbon

Like trees supply water to grass

Those bastions of green futures
Are sucking us dry
