Early life and education
Wagner-Riddle was born in 1961 and raised in Rolandia, Brazil, where she completed her first two degrees in agronomic engineering at the University of São Paulo.[1] Upon completing her undergraduate degree, she accepted a research position in Germany looking at soil erosion which inspired her to pursue graduate research in the subject.[2] As a result, she travelled to North America and enrolled at the University of Guelph's Department of Land Resource Science for her PhD.[1]
Career
Upon completing her PhD, Wagner-Riddle joined the faculty at her alma mater, the University of Guelph, in 1994.[3] Beginning in 2008, she has been collaborating with organizations from her homeland, Brazil, in documenting the impact that management of agriculture has on greenhouse gas emissions.[4] Wagner-Riddle was also elected to the Ontario Agricultural College Board of Directors[5] and contributed to the development of the Nitrous Oxide Emission Reduction Protocol.[1] Her research led to a cross-Canada partnership of government, industry and universities in green agriculture technologies to benefit Canadian farmers. In 2011, Gerry Ritz granted the university nearly $4 million in grant funds to study and develop tools to help farmers mitigate greenhouse gas emissions.[6] She also received $2.8 million from the federal Agricultural Greenhouse Gases Program to lead a research project to lower the carbon footprint of dairy farming in Canada.[7] The following year, Wagner-Riddle was named a YMCA-YWCA Women of Distinction Award for her "efforts to integrate the life and physical sciences to address environmental problems."[3]
In 2012, Wagner-Riddle was appointed Editor-In-Chief of the journal Agricultural and Forest Meteorology.[8] While serving in this role, she also became the director of the University of Guelph's Soil Health Interpretive Centre where she teaches visitors about soils as ecosystems.[9] A few years later, she was elected a Fellow of the Canadian Society of Agricultural and Forest Meteorology.[10] In 2020, Wagner-Riddle was appointed Director of the North America regional chapter of the International Nitrogen Initiative[11] and elected a Fellow of the American Meteorological Society.[12]
